I bought this wreath ages ago and just love it
Christmas tea towels
Cute pic for December on my Peanuts calendar.
Our advent calendar my mum found in a little gift shop in Waipawa. I'm actually going to make an advent calendar like this beautiful one for next year but just ran out of time this year!
Christmas stockings ready and waiting
I get out the christmas books each year and try to add one or two each christmas to our collection. One of the comments on my giveaway from http://familyofgirls.wordpress.com/ was a christmas tradition of buying a christmas book for each child every year and writing the year so when they leave home they have a collection for their own children- I like that idea!
Miss 1 dancing to the christmas music we had playing while decorating (the hat stayed on for about half a second after pic was taken- she wasn't a fan!)
Hopefully time to have a read of some of these this afternoon..
Hope you are enjoying the first day of December too.... if you have a minute go and check out what other people are up to in their houses here (I'm a couple of days late!)

PS: Angie from ModernMake made this gorgeous advent calendar last Christmas and wrote a really neat list of Christmas things to do with her children from Dec 1 to the 25th- have a read here. Her blog was one of the reasons I got into blogging! :)

Lots of lovely Christmas things around Megan. I was waiting until the first of December but yesterday we needed an afternoon activity so we ended up putting up the Christmas tree and some decorations then instead. My kids are loving it.
Your wreath is lovely.
There are so many craft possibilities for Christmas aren't there. Next year I'll have to plan ahead a bit more so I can can get some nice things made.
Have fun with Christmas!
Lou.
Christmas is just SO much fun isn't it! I love your wreath... and classic your Mum found your advent calender in Waipawa (I was born in Waipukarau - 10 mins away).
I am going to pinch your idea about the Christmas Books, the kids will love that.
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Angie :-)
That's exactly what I'm doing this afternoon! Would be funner with Stella Boo running around though I'm guessing. The cat will have to do!
Butting in here - Angie I think we were in the same circles at school - are you friends with the Wall girls?
Very festive! That red Home and Garden...is that an old issue or the new issue? Very intrigued by the word Christmas! Is it a special Christmas edition?
Want your wreath. Ahem. Anyway, I got the decorations out today too!!!
I love the xmas book idea and also have much love for Snoopy!!
Lovely advent calendar. I buy a book every year for the boys so we have a collection of growing Christmas books. I love Christmas too!
