Our Christmas 2015


First of all, I hope you all had a lovely Christmas. My girls have been super excited for Christmas this year. Mia has really understood Christmas and Santa a lot more this year. I finished my wrapping around 12:30am Christmas early morning. We were then woken up at 6am by Elliw then at 6.30am by Mia. They saw their filled stockings hanging on the side of the bed so they both went into Mia's bedroom and excitedly opened them. We all then went downstairs by 6.45am. The girls were super excited to see so much presents.

We let them open a few presents then we had a break for breakfast. Then they carried on opening the rest of the presents. After they finished opening the presents in the living room we took them into the front room which had their new kitchen, easel board and a really cosy huge cuddly caterpillar.

 

Later on my partners parents came over to see the girls and their presents. When they went we went to visit my partners aunty and uncle for an hour or so and then we headed up to my partners parents house to spend the rest of the day and to have Christmas dinner. The girls had more presents in my partners parents house and they were over the moon and so excited just like they were in the morning.

Boxing Day we went to my Nain & Taid's house to see my side of the family. Usually we stay a good few hours but this year due to the floods and bad weather we decided to go later on in the afternoon when roads were clear and we left when the rain started badly back again.

Overall, both days were amazing. Mia is now spending Boxing day afternoon in her Dads until Monday evening for her Second Christmas! It was so lovely seeing the smiles on Mia and Elliw's faces Christmas morning. I always think that Christmas is all about spending time with the people you love. I have enjoyed every minute of it. Hope you all have too.

  9. Looks like a wonderful Christmas. Ours were up at 4:30....I decided if that happens again next year that I will have to tell them to go back to bed because I could barely function the rest of the day. Thank you so much for hostessing #justanotherlinky.

  15. Awww fab pictures. Sounds like you all had s lovely Christmas. Our little boy, Rowan, is only 17 months old so still doesn't understand Christmas properly, looking forward to next year when he'll understand it a lot more.
