The first advent calendar window is open!!!


Welcome to December! Inside our advent calendar window today was a cute little penguin. Sam opened todays window - we're doing it by age....so tomorrow is Abigails turn! This is our advent calendar for this year that my Mum sent over.......I did NOT want a nasty chocolate filled one like they sell here in Canada.


Its just after 2pm.......the kids are outside sledding despite the cold. Sam is asleep.


My Mum would be horrified, but this morning we brought the big Christmas tree upstairs from the basement studio and we decorated the main floor - two trees, and the mantlepiece etc ....and now it is at that messy stage...boxes everywhere, bits everywhere and it's driving me nuts....
I decorated the main tree in the sitting room, and the kids had fun decorating their tree in the front room......their tree has all the ornaments I have collected over the years as well as the ornaments the children have made.....
Tonight we have Derek coming back - he came the other night too...he is redoing the ceiling in the hallway, plastering the hallway and finishing off the bedroom in the basement for us.......
We have to run out to get a few things tonight too.......
