It has been a long week for my
little family; we are all feeling tired and run down. Meme finishes school on
the 18th December which is good as they will have a full week to chill out
before the madness of Christmas.
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Here are my #little loves this
week</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Read</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
I don’t think I have read
anything this week apart from some bedtime stories for the girls. I have even
let Meme miss some of her school reading books as she has just been so tired.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Watched</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Again, not much at all. Actually,
we have watched quite a few Disney films after school.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Wore</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
I went for cocktails with my
sisters last Saturday in Liverpool, we had a lovely night and drank far too
many Porn Star Martinis – they are delicious! I wore leather leggings, a vest
and a sparkly jacket. I meant to take a picture but I never seem to get the
chance as I am always rushing out the house.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I have also worn an umbrella – why does it always
rain during the school run? Wet School Run</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Heard</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Lots of Christmas music, we are
definitely feeling festive in our house. The Pogoes has got to be my favorite
though!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Made</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Every year my Girls collect fir
combs and then make them all a little festive with glitter glue. They love
doing this and it’s nice to get them involved in the Christmas decorations.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"> </b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">And
Lastly</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
It is December! My girls were
very excited to open their advent calendars on Tuesday, they have 3 each! They
are counting down the days until Christmas, whilst I am counting down the days
until the school holidays – no school run for 2 whole weeks! Yippee!</div>

This is a cookie sheet pan spray
painted and then some base parts covered with cardstock. I printed a ready-made
number sheet on cardstock. Then decorated each numbered square with whatever.
Some stamped and some stickers. The stamps I used were from The Stamps of Life
by Stephanie Bernard. Added glitter glue, colored pencils and a variety of inks
and topics. Each numbered square is mounted on chipboard and then a magnet is
adhered to the backs with glue dots. The title was cut using the cricut and the
black base was embossed with the cuttlebug.</div>

The simplest answer would be that given by the famous lyrics Andy Williams, because "It's the most wonderful time of the year .</div>
