well....the big day is looming and despite attempts to be a very organised elf this year, a few things are still to be done...but no worries, only I will notice if they're not ready in time :)
the trees are up and the house is feeling festive.....
....a little dusting of snow helped with that this morning,
Derek has gone white for christmas...I couldn't help it... I was painting the table and looked up...suddenly I was attacking his antlers and there was no going back :) I think he suits it....
so....we are looking forward to some family time, relaxing, catching up with friends, drinking snowballs....might even be able to sneak off to the shed for a bit of calm and some crafting. I have been drawing a lot lately and I'm hoping to combine that with my love of illustration, I have a lovely little stash of fabrics ready to be turned into new bags,cushions and bundles :) so I'm looking forward to a busy 2012 :)
that just leaves me to wish you a very...
and a wonderful...happy new year.....hope you get all you wish for :)

Do you think my lot will notice if I don't bother getting any food, drink and sweeties in? How I hate the supermarket.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're all sorted Jane, love that Derek needed a new look.
