Merry Christmas!!!

Well its been a busy morning with all the kids wanting to open all their presents and play with every single thing but i think they have had a great day up to now :-)

I have had some great presents of everyone, i had a hand made calendar and a small christmas pudding cross stitch kit, (good friend) 2 rubber stamps, a 800 piece set of brads, a danielle steel book, a wizard ornament, a bottle of perfume (off the kids) a necklace, a DVD and a Jodi Picoult book called Mercy (from Sue) and off Hubby 3 great mirabilia charts Bliss Fairy, Petal Fairy and Caring wings, all 3 of which i wanted! a Denim jacket and a fleecy night dress off my sister and her family. Hubby and kids got totally spoilt today but its the only time of year that they do get all this .

Well its nearly time for the Chronicles of Narnia to start , best get tidied up a bit i think.

Enjoy your day wherever you are and whatever you are doing!

1 day to go!!

Where has the time gone? It doesnt seem 5 minutes since we were starting to buy christmas presents and now here we are just a a few hours away from the big day. The kids are really excited now and can't wait to start tracking santa tomorrow morning when they get up.

the turkey is defrosting nicely, all the veggies have been bought and are awaiting preparing tomorrow all we need now is snow to make christmas feel real though we probably won't get any but we can wish right?

on the stitching front not alot is being done, i have a muscle aching really badly in my shoulder making it hard to hold my stitching even though i badly want to work on my daughters Fairy Flora, just a good job that i have 22 months to get her completed and framed for her 18th birthday.

3 of the kids are sitting watching Tom and Jerry cartoons on boomerang, its the one time you can more or less guranutee that the house will be quiet apart from the sound of laughter LOL
