Christmas Arrived....

....in the form of Lucy this weekend.  The official start of Christmas.  Had a lovely (and last minute) trip to Newark on Satuirday afternoon for a bit mof pre-Christmas shopping.  I only spent a couple of pounds in two charity shops - but Jamie loved his little cat and Spiderman DVD.  Thenm after shopping we got some chips and sat in Newark Castelbefore a final play in the park as the sun set over Newark .

saturday night and the tree was up!!  It looked a bit of a mess as we left it to two four year olds, but it looks better now I have tidied it up!

Sunday was the annula trip to the Baubkle Barn

I did try not to sopend any money and only bought 3 actuial baubles, but then found a very nice star wreath to hang on the front door!

Then it was lunch to celebrate Nanna Grace's 93 birthday.

Eated far too much this weekend and Sghattered.  But a wondwerful staret to Christrtmas!!
