feeling festive

So, most of my Christmas shopping was crossed off in one stealth attack yesterday {except for one mis-labled pair of pjs that I have to take back today}. So the gal and I are doing the Christmas cards this morning - I'm hoping to get them all done and ready to post on Monday.

I'm looking forward to Wednesday when I pick up my mum and step-dad from the airport in the early hours of the morning. Luckily they're happy to do the weekend drive-around to look at Christmas lights, one of our family traditions.

Oh, it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas alright!

  7. I have done my Christmas cards (already to post on Monday), 2/3 of my Christmas shopping and tomorrow we'll put up the tree.

    All this from someone who does it the week before. I'm oh so impressed with myself.

    Well done to you too. Am feeling very festive this year!

  8. I am also knee deep in Chrissy cards - and I actually really love doing them. I love getting in touch by a simple, heartfelt gesture each year. Beats facebook hands down!! x

  9. I was THERE! In Paris! Almost 2 years ago and it looked JUST like that. Those memories are very close to my heart. I can see the lights, feel the freeeeeezing cold air and snow! And smell the city. GOD I love Paris. Thanks for the reminder PPMJ x

  10. You put me to shame .... I'm crap at sending cards, although I wish I wasn't, and while I know what I am getting the kids I haven't anywhere near bought them all. I wish I was more organised!!!

  11. Paris at Christmas... That looks devine! Would love to do that one day.

    We are having an early Xmas dinner on the 12th Dec for my inlaws who are all travelling over Xmas this year. Off to Sri Lanka, Canada and Italy, they are all super travellers but not very festive :(
