between a trip to melbourne and school open days and well life, we've been very slack and didn't get our christmas decorations up until last night. the kids were nearly dying by then so we couldn't have possibly put it off any longer if we wanted to live a peaceful life. i loooove having the decorations up, even if i am a "okay it's boxing day/ day after boxing day let's take them down" kind of person. i am always on the lookout for super cute decorations to add to my tree and this year, i found these gorgeous gold glittery swans. so in love!
i didn't put out absolutely everything this year, in fact i left quite a few things packed away, but i am so happy with what's out... including this teeny nativity set (most of the pieces around an inch high)
and these cute chalkboard painted wooden signs i picked up a few years ago, along with a musical box nativity set... it's the best and the kids love it. i'm kind of regretting showing them that it plays music though, not going to lie...
my favourite thing is seeing the lights of the tree shining in a dark room... i remember as children, mum and dad would leave the lights on all night on christmas eve and i would sneak out numerous times to check if there were any presents yet, so now i do the same for my kids.
i quite simply just love christmas - and everything about it! ♥
