chelsea Posted September 1, 2006 Author Share Posted September 1, 2006 I like nothing better than putting on my xmas song cd and putting the decs on my tree...all frosty outside...all toasty and warm inside... my favourite song is the "chestnuts roasting on an open fire, jack frost nipping on your nose"...."merry christmas to you!".... We do all the house up with cobwebs and I get my broomstick out of the loft We have no children though We also do the tree to nat king cole or something similar with wine and nibbles BBx Buffie - we dont have any kids either!!! my animals are my babies ! doesnt stop us going completely mad with the xmas decs or halloween, or anything else for that matter - hubby and I have combined mental age of 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I'm the same when it comes to Christmas - I love decorating the tree and helping Rosie do her note to FC to put by the fire. Sadly, I think that last year was the last one she believed in Santa Happily, my folks took us to Lapland a couple of years ago when she was still a believer - that was fantastic!

The Dogmother Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 It really is fantastic Chelsea, and there were loads of people there without children. I think my folks booked it through Canterbury Travel, who were very good. It was all inclusive so nothing to shell out on the day either, long day though!

HennyPenny might read this and then I'll have to deal with all those tears and awkward questions, again! I've already had to reassure her about a million times that our new house has got a chimney for FC to come down and that the sleigh won't slip off the roof!

The Dogmother Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I love 'believing', I remember creeping round my folks big garden with Rosie when she was little - fairy hunting - took me right back to when I did it myself (and that was only last year ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted September 4, 2006 Share Posted September 4, 2006 Did anyone see the film Polar Express? We took Rosie to see it in 3D at the London Imax - it was absolutely superb, and made to be seen in that dimension too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Perfect day here in Sheffield. Blue sky, bright sunshine, ever so slight nip in the air. Only prob is the traffic is back to normal with the schools being back. Still queueing outside my house for the traffic lights which are a quarter of a mile away.

Cinnamon Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 I must admit that I am looking forward to the hens having a lie in when itsdarker in the mornings.

The Dogmother Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 It was pitch black here at 8.15pm last night I hate the dark nights, and the mornings too. Lovely here, if a tad overcast and humid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-s Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 Lovely morning here, well at 6.30am when I was down on the beach with the dogs. Watched an oilrig floating down the Moray Firth, all lit up like a Christmas tree Cold and very wet now Natalie has gone on a school trip until Friday to an outward bounds centre near Aviemore. Hope the weather improves for her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
