The woods

We've spent alot of time walking in the woods this Christmas. Crossing the narrow bridges is a little nervewracking but of course. the children always want to cross. Our Dutch neighbours were here for Christmas too so Sam had a fantastic time with their family of 6!

Christmas preparations #2

 

A few more Christmassy projects. I think we're nearly done here...maybe a few more, because it is fun. I'm not sure how long the needles will stay on the xmas tree with Bella pulling decorations off. She finds it hard to resist.

Also, I'm thrilled to be part of a giveaway at Baby space blog. It's a fantastic giveaway full of goodies and one of my cushions!

Christmas preparations

We've been crafting away making Christmas decorations. 

The salt dough decorations have been a hit with the children. Using our biscuit cutters to make the shapes, they've covered the tree. Sam brought the pinecone home from school 2 years ago and today he told me Bella did one too. Incidentally, Bella spent a whole day at school and ate (everything she was given I'm assured) in the canteen - a miracle!. She's been invited back next Tuesday for a whole day if she wishes too.

We'll continue crafting in the meantime.
