The final Pause in Advent has arrived, next Sunday Christmas Day will have arrived and we will be enjoying the company of family. On Christmas Day we walk round to my MIL's and spend the day with her and her partner, our Aunt and Uncle come round in the evening. We enjoy a lovely day together.
We decided to have real tree for the first time ever this year.
Mark & I chose it on Friday and we have been decorating it and the house this weekend.
It is starting to feel very festive.
With just a few gifts left to purchase during the week.
Some of the lovely tree decorations I have been given and collected over the last few years. I'm sure my various friends will recognise the decorations they have given me in the past. My most recent decorations are a set of musical notes and symbols from my friend Nichola who I stayed with in Germany in September this year. She saw them in a market and thought of me. I am really thrilled with them, they are indeed perfect.
A mix of vintage, modern, wooden that we first bought together and handmade by DS1 & DS2
The last of the cards and packages are ready to be sent tomorrow morning after yoga. I can well imagine the queue in the post office tomorrow...something I am NOT looking forward to.
Wishing everyone a lovely calm and peaceful week and safe travelling for all those who are visiting friends and relatives.

Your tree looks lovely. My collection of handmade decorations are out too. My felted stocking you made me is up too.
Your tree looks lovely! Every year I look at beautifully decorated trees in magazines - but then decide I would rather have our motley collection of decoarations, collected over the years!
Handmade and gifted from special friends are the best decorations.
Enjoy yours.
Wishing you and your family a peaceful Festive season.
