Xmas in our house!

Wow i cant believe Xmas is so close now. I thought I'd share a few pics of my decorations this year.

I have a mix of traditional looking festive things for the kids in one room and in the other i have a more contemporary look.

Gingerbread Man!

This big old snowman is a favourite with kids :)

On the fireplace in the main room i decorated with fairy lights and silvers and pinks

The run up to Xmas has been very hectic here but i have just about finished all the shopping and sent the cards so only the wrapping to be done and then i can relax with a big glass of something fizzy :)
Are you all ready for the big day?

It's only Xmas twice a year!

Evening my lovely blogging friends. Today i had a fantastic afternoon with one of my best friends who i haven't seen since before Xmas. We went for some food and drinks and generally gossiped and laughed and i made coy noises at her beautiful little girl who is just 9 months old.

Anyway she gave me my Xmas pressy and here's what it was:

 Mark Hill Bag and Party Animal products. She knows i love a bit of zebra print. I've not tried any of these so i can't wait to use them.

Benefit Makeup bag with lots of products. I'm not sure if these are the real deal but Ive tried the lippy and its gorgeous and the eyeshadows are really pigmented. Cant wait to try this little lot out. Maybe a FOTD tomorrow with these beauties.
I ♥ my friends
