It's the kid's Christmas Fayre tonight... sort of nice, sort of an endurance... kids and cakes flying everywhere, no room to swing a cat, my littlest one freaking out that he hasn't won the raffle, husband strangely still at work! I'll be on the tombola between 5 and 6pm with my friend drinking all the mulled cider....come and join us! 
Also...... even bigger news....my design is on the Tigerprint Home page today.....sooooo excited! Have a look here. Dawn Machell's is on first, then mine.....aren't we lucky ladies! 

Dearest printer,  just because I have many, many designs to print out today does not mean you can get all cranky and start chewing up my paper, do you hear me!!! Arrooooooooo....that's me howling like a snow fox! 

So it's snowing all over England, yey.....but not where I am, boo. 

Ok, so everyone I talk to (apart from my friend Emma) seems to have all their Christmas shopping done and dusted. The kids are even bringing home Christmas cards from school. I haven't even started....I have no idea why... what am I thinking, it's time for me to get a wriggle on! 

I love a bit of John Lewis... it's become part of my annual Christmas outings. We all go up and down, down and up the escalators, look at all the decorations and fairy lights and feel all soft and cosy and fuzzy. It's just one big bundle of shoppy Christmassy-ness.

And my uber-talented friend Dawn Machell is joining in the advent action too (not that it's going to be hard for her as she posts every day anyway, so no ducking out at day 5 Dawn! ) Open hers here

So the little ones ran downstairs to open their advents and fell out over who had more chocolate per mm than the other! Ah, xmas bliss!
