It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

Wow, we can't believe it is already December! Which means... Christmas is just around the corner - 19 days to be exact! 

Christmas is definitely our favourite season and a highlight as the year draws to a close. It is such a lovely time of year with the echoes of carols ringing whilst shopping, and baking all manner of festive treats, which fill the house with the comforting aroma of spices such as ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg. Watching the Christmas tree glitter with its colourful ornaments and glowing fairy lights never fails to bring a smile to our faces as the anticipation of Christmas grows. It is a time of year which you can spend with family and friends and give back to others in the community. There is nothing better than embracing the season head-on with a spot of Christmas shopping, gift wrapping and baking (of course!), which was exactly what we did when the 1st of December came around.
