A Christmas Night in with Primula
I know Christmas is supposed to be the season for the whole “Party Up” kinda thing (if you’ve ever been to Magic Kingdom and watched Move It Shake It you’ll have just got that reference and I hope you smiled). But as a single mother with no friends in my home town, it means I actually do no partying at all. In fact, I don’t remember the last time I had a night on the town.. how sad? But just because I’m stuck in doesn’t mean I can’t kick back, relax and feel the Christmas vibes. In fact, now that Little Miss is a little person rather than a baby,…

Our Christmas Home
For Blogmas Day 10, I just wanted to share an image heavy post featuring some photos of how our home looks during the Christmas period. This year I put our tree up on the 27th November and all the rest of the rest of the decorations up the day after. I put the lights and the tinsel on the tree then LM helped me put the ornaments on it. Our decorations are very Disney weighted, even our tinsel has Mickey heads on it. If every aspect of our life is Disney, why not Christmas too? I’m going to do a pots dedicated to my favourite tree ornaments later on during…

Blogmas Day 5 – A Trip to Meet Santa Claus
A short post for Blogmas today but a rather special one. This is my first Christmas Life post and I’m excited to share. Today in the little village my parents live in there was a Christmas fayre where you could meet Santa Claus. Usually they have a great one on a Friday night where they have Santa in his sleigh with reindeer and he turns on the Christmas lights, but this year, for whatever reason, that was cancelled and instead the fayre happened on a Saturday afternoon. It wasn’t as busy (probably due to a lot of people working) but our family enjoyed it. There was cake, tea and coffee,…

#HolidayHeroes Competition with Ice Lolly*
I decided to do something a little different for my third day of Blogmas. Today I’m going to share with you my heroes of 2015. I usually do some kind of post towards the end of the year about the people who have played an important role over the last year, so I thought i’d combine it with the fact Ice Lolly are running a competition about #HolidayHeroes and it’s now down to the last 9! One of these wonderfully deserving people will win a holiday to Majorca! Head over to Ice Lolly’s #HolidayHeroes page now, and by voting you’ll also get £50 off your next holiday! So, back to…

Three Perfect 2015 Moments*
Where has this year gone? Seriously! I think this has to be the fastest year yet. I find myself asking every day “how on earth did we get to this point in the year?” It’s crazy that we’re over half way through November now. This year has been both the best and one of the worst but I will go into the good and bad points and the highs and lows in my end of year round up on the 31st December. Today however I’m sharing with you three perfect moments from this year. I’m not even going to apologise for the fact that they’re all from various Disney trips.…

Happy Adoption Day Anniversary, Elsa
I could not let today go by without giving my perfect little fur baby a special shout out on the blog. One year ago today my sister drove Little Miss and I to pick up the newest addition to our family, Elsa Arya. Not one day has gone by where I have regretted my decision to adopt her. Although I knew from long before she was ready to go to a new home that she would be mine, and that I would have loved to adopt a cat from a shelter, I feel like she was meant to come into my life. She loves me completely and I don’t need…
