I now feel like Christmas has officially started. I managed to finish everything I wanted to before our friends popped in, so I can relax now. We popped to the supermarket after they'd been, which was not a great idea, but at least I don't need to worry now, as I picked up the milk and a couple of other items that I'd forgotten.
Me and the kids have been watching Christmas films this afternoon - started with the Grinch, the animated version which I hadn't seen before, and I thought that was really nice. Then the Nightmare before Christmas, then One Magic Christmas which I watched alone as it always makes me cry.

Happy Christmas eve everyone!
It's a nice feeling not to have to do anything today. It's a chill out day for sure. DH is working still today but he's off tomorrow and Boxing day. We'll have a takeaway tonight so no cooking.
I'll be prepping the veg for tomorrow but not much else planned.
