i was on the ball this year - with our christmas tree up on the 1st of december. go me! haha
these two loved every minute of putting it up and quickly ran off to get red and green pjs on to pose in front of it, even though alexander had already been put to bed.
i love a traditional tree, but have a few surprises in there, like mini gold pineapples, pale green macarons, some gold swans and some new decorations this year, like these cute glittery initials from our local big w
which the kids loved finding a spot for and putting on the tree themselves
and some gold glittery seahorses, one of which you can see tucked away on the lift hand side here. my all time favourite ornaments remain the silver praying angel my mother gave me on the day of my baptism, just ten days before christmas in december 1991 and this glass bauble filled with leftover white satin from my wedding dress. i am hoping it's something my daughter will keep hanging on her tree in the years to come.
i love having the tree up, because it feels like the christmas season has officially begun. i am hoping christmas rhis year will be special, being that alex is a lot more mobile now and not a newborn - and the other two are really starting to understand what it is all about.
merry christmas everyone! i can't wait to start the celebrations!
