The first Christmas excitements

It’s November 26th late in the evening, 2 degrees outside. How can that seriously not make you feel christmassy?

This evening I have started getting things ready for December/Christmas time.

Check out my advent calendar I purchased from zulily a few weeks back. I wanted something different this year and I think it hit the spot.
Filled with delicious chocolates for me and hubby of course. Matthew will get his own Mickey mouse clubhouse calendar.

On Saturday the plan is to get that advent wreath ready as on Sunday it’s already the 1st advent. I will show you the finished product then.

Hubby mentioned to me to put the tree up on Saturday. I know people put it up way earlier this year but because December 6th is falling on a Saturday this year we will be putting it up next weekend.

In Ireland it’s a tradition to watch the Late Late Toy Show at the end of the November month. This will be on Friday night. It’s a show with children who sing and present the latest toys on the market. Will you be watching it?

Are you going for a special advent calendar this year or will it be the one already filled with chocolate? When are you going to put your tree up?
