1st of December
December 2nd, 2007 
Well, Christmas is coming. Not too much longer. Our house is all decorated (though I still want to do a little more) and the girls started their Advent Calender today. Everyday they get a little chocolate and either a present or something to do with me (usually craft). I started this one year when I realized I had bought way too many present to give them all on day – so thought it would be better to spread it out over the month. We’ve done this ever since – though they now get more activities than presents – and they love it. I’ve bought nearly all my christmas presents and have started to make plans for this years Christmas card. I’m feeling rather relaxed and looking forward to the next few weeks as we build up to Christmas.
You have some really pretty Christmas pieces. I really like the Believe. Merry Christmas! x Suze
Dear Libby,
Thank you for inviting me inside your home to share in your decorating… it is lovely!
I love how you do the advent calendar with your daughters.
They must LOVE that! I think it is very special.
Have a lovely Christmas!

[...] Tour of Homes. Since I already shared most of our decorations back on the 1st of December – click here if you missed it – I’ve gone around the house to find some that I missed the first time [...]
Love your stairway and the gorgeous view out your picture window! Very nice! Merry Christmas!

[...] I’ll be sharing more photos as we get closer to Christmas but in truth it looks much like it did last year. [...]
