we are a house that elebrates christmas. we celebrate family, drawing together, being thankful for the family in blood and the family in friendship that we have, and making the most of the time together. That is the plan anyway. 
Part of this is decorating the house. first we tidy, sort out old toys and clothes to freecycle, give to friends with smaller children and to charity shops. [this part we are not so good at ] the next is to have a tree in the 2 living rooms. a large one with the tv, and a smaller one on sb’s desk in the home ed room. We have struggled this year with the smaller one, as it has taken to falling over! 3 times now, so hidden bricks supporting it! anyway, all trees are done now. have the nativity to put out, and the girls will decorate the staircase when my mum comes. I love christmas
