THE BEST YET

Helloooooo, I hope you've all had as good a Christmas as I have, I can honestly say with hand on heart that this year was the best yet.
With my big boy and my Mum joining us for Christmas day and more family visiting Boxing day, it has been filled with love, fun and laughter.
We been so busy enjoying each others company that I totally forgot about taking pics, all though my little man has been rather snap happy with his new Vtech camera, I'm looking forward to loading his pics onto my laptop and seeing what he's come up with.

Finances were tight this year so a lot of cut backs were made when it came to pressies but we all (children included) appreciated what we did have a lot more.
That said, I was still thoroughly spoilt by my loved ones.....................................

Lots of my fave soap and glory smellies

Delicious Yankee votives.................................








Gorgeous print.............................................









from my big boy


Fabulous doodle books...................................................









from a very dear friend, can't wait to get my pro markers out and start doodling.


Books, books, books.............................................









What a great selection, these should keep me going for a while!


I feel a little sad that that's it, all over now for another year but I am looking forward to spending quality time with my man and kiddies over the next week whilst they're all home and catching up with my bestie, I've not seen her for 3 whole days, I'm getting serious best friend withdraw.

I'm hoping to even start crafting again, so many ideas whizzing around in my head, I'm really not sure where to start.

I'm off now to hide my girls 'Bop It', she has been driving Me nuts on it 'hehe'!

  5. We had a scaled down Christmas too and you know what it was great. All but one of the kids was put off by the clothes he got. The 2 game systems (his dad got him one too) were not enough, Kids! But all the rest of us were very happy. I cheated and upgraded a few of my not so old electronics and gave the old ones to family they are thrilled! They know ofcourse :)
    Hugs, Lisa
