    Our Christmas Home

    December 10, 2015 /

    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…

    What Little Miss Wore to her Christmas Party

    December 8, 2015 /

    Today was Little Miss’ Christmas party at pre-school! She’s been so excited about it the last few days especially how they’ve been practising games and singing Christmas songs. As I mentioned in Blogmas Day 5, she’s really into Christmas this year. Yesterday she came home from pre-school with a folder with her handmade Christmas card in, a calendar, a tree decoration and a present from Santa Claus which was sweet. Then today of course she had her party which meant being there nearly the whole day as she attends a morning session and the party was held in the afternoon! She seems to have enjoyed herself and I just want…

    My Phone History*

    December 6, 2015 /

    With Christmas just around the corner, meaning many beautifully wrapped new phones under the tree, I thought it would be fun to take a look at my phone history. My first ever mobile phone was a Christmas present when I think I was 14 going on 15. Now I’ve got to the point that I rely so much on my mobile phone that I don’t even have a house line, but that doesn’t stop me lusting after one of those fancy cordless phones. So anyway, my first ever phone was the good old Motorola brick. I have no idea what make it was and I only used it for phonecalls…
