A Partridge joins the party, with a pear or two.

Frost on the ground, Winter's definitely in the air now. 

Keep your eyes out for foxes.. this is their busiest weekend for Christmas shopping,  so I hear!

Somewhere, in the middle of a fir tree forest, the snow is falling, the stars are glittering and the animals are gathering for their Christmas Ball. (See, I told you my advent has a story to it!)

You know in old black and white movies, when they're shopping and are balancing big piles of boxes wrapped with ribbons and filled with beautiful dresses. I'd like some of that this year please. x

(oh, and a giraffe to carry them for me ;-)

So, this year I'm going for a bit of a glamour story in my advents... a bit of glitz and glitter mixed up with a sprinkle of Christmas magic. 

A touch of the kind of party you want to be invited to with a great big gold invite delivered to your door. A girl can dream hey!

For more of a peek, go to my website home page.... or just wait every day and see what pops up. :-)

At last count, we now have 9 advents on the go in our house... 3 chocolate ones, 3 paper ones, 1 Playmobil thing and 2 on the iPad. The kiddos are going to have to get up an hour earlier just to get them open before school. And one of them is hidden all round the house just to add to the challenge, ha ha. So, going with that more is definitely merrier,  I'll be doing the full 24 on here too. I LOVE the build up to Xmas, it's my favourite part. So, hope this brings a little Christmas magic from me to you.

You can also check out our Dotty Wren advent each day here too, 6 from each of us.... you can never have enough! And my fellow wren Dawn will be posting one on her blog too. (So that's 3 for your advent pile already. You might need to to set aside an hour too... x)
