Yahoooooo the big week is here, it took 4 pages to fit it in ! We tried to focus on the positives, but it was still an extremely sad time for us all. We had lunch at home cooked by Jenny - she is renowned for her MEGA Roasts, it was outstanding. We didn't eat anything for the rest of the day, we were as stuffed as the Xmas Turkey....we did our usual trick of waiting till the last minute for the Turkey - its risky - but I did have some pork in the fridge if we failed ! Xmas presents were a hit, and I even managed a brisk walk by the river with Florence, whilst the children did some visiting.
We skyped Tom over in Vietnam, and spoke to Joe, & sent a text to Lily & Grandad. We really missed Dad, our first Xmas without him.
I managed to get some free Xmas downloadable project life cards, I discovered that printing them on matte photo paper got the best results - I need to reprint a couple. I added some gift tags and Xmas cards, and some little felt reindeer and snowflakes, the children love looking through this week, I hope you do too !
