The Christmas tree is up

Can't believe we are as excited about Christmas as we are...
But having a little one all wide-eyed and excited about things like decorating a tree and opening up an advent calender does that to one!

Yesterday, on the 1st of December our Christmas tree was up!
The toddler loved decorating it with her sister the night before. 

 I made my first ever advent calender thanks to Cat at Juggling Act of Life.
I'm sure if you go there and ask her nicely, she will still send you the details. It was super easy to make, and it is much nicer than any advent calender you can buy in the shops.

The calender worked wonders yesterday and today to get the Toddler out of bed and in a good mood...

December is going to be a festive month!

When are your trees going up?
It seems that everyone is catching on to the Christmas spirit this year? (It's not just us! ;-))
