Merry and Bright.

Tonight is the first chance I have had to edit our December pics. Well, you could say I am a little behind on blogging.  I can't believe  it is the night before Hogmany and I am only just getting pics on here from the 1st of December!! I want all of the December pics up before the New year.

One of my resolutions is to write more.
So I will be here again. I have missed this space.

The past couple of months have been very trying. For a whole lot of reasons. It has been very stressful and emotional and just plain hard. Nothing just flowed, everything had to be pushed along and grappled with every step of the way.

But looking back I can say we made it. I will always remember the moment on Christmas eve when we looked around and realised that we had done it, finished the marathon, reached the top of the mountain.

The presents were wrapped.

with a little help

We baked cookies

the house was decorated

We relaxed by the tree and soaked up every delicious scent it wafted our way.

We danced and sang

Stress aside there was plenty of christmas spirit.

My girl painted my nails for me for christmas.

We made memories, we have had lots of family fun and we have made the most of every moment that we could.

December magic.
