    It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you do not know where you are, and if you don't know where you are, then you don't know where you are going. If you don't know where you're going, you're probably going wrong.

    Popping in while the smalls are finally quiet (only because they're eating dinner!)

    DD broke her Santa plate (I'd half made these over the last few weeks leaving the personalised bits for them to do themselves. So lots of tears! I have made another with her but it doesn't 'match' up to the other twos as I'd spent quite a while on there's :o Oh well she's happy.

    We've made pizza and salad for dinner this evening because the time ran away why we where crafting :o

    Have quite a few homemade treats to take to the Nursing home later along with some bits the smalls have made. Also need to drop in biscuits and cakes with the cards smalls made for youngest's nurses. I was feeling really organised but now I have to wait for others to 'pair up' with us for the plans I'm stressing :o

    I'm glad you managed to make another santa plate for the liitle'un. I'm sure they'll look back at all the lovely activities you do with them with really happy memories when they are grown up :).

    It sounds like you will have a lovely Xmas. We have a 'buffet' tea on Xmas Eve and then cinnamon rolls for breakfast on xmas morning, then pizza for lunch. People think we are mad, but I don't want to be cooking, I do the traditional roast on boxing Day or the 27th.

    And when our big two were small we were living in Brighton, we would drive down to the beach after lunch and walk along the seafront. Was lovely. I miss that.

    Morning, W. How are the wee ones today. Excited? I love them when the're still small enough to believe in the magic of Christmas. Actually I love them even when they get bigger as well.
    Looking very grey here. Wonder if it'll snow. Just a light dusting would be nice.
    Have adventures. laugh a lot and always be kind.
