The Countdown #5.......x

Waaaaaaa!!!! So nearly there!!!!!!!! I have butterflies in my tummy, or perhaps they are dancing reindeer.....




Everythings ready, Q is on his way home from work, the Bumblebee's keep doing little Christmas drawings, their little interpretations of gingerbread houses, sleighs, and winter wonderlands....

This week we have gathered with many friends, and talk always turns to how you do Christmas, what time you all wake up, what you've bought one another and so on........




Tis Christmas fever...........I tell you...

Can I say, this must be a year of firsts for me, first Christmas cake bake, and a fist Yule log bake........I used some blackberry jam we made back in Sept and mixed it in with the cream filling........twas yummo!




Ooooh I must sort out some sparkly reindeer food.......

  6. Ha ha... we had some 'reindeer food' out this year that one of our boys had made at Beavers, rather that the usual carrot!!
    Your Yule log looks totally scrummy...as does the rest of your house in fact!!

    Hope you had a magical Christmas and my best wishes to you for the new year xxx
