Weekending

Chris had taken a couple of days off work so we had a long weekend together. Friday we got everything out of the loft, found all the Christmas bits out and set about putting up the tree, only to realise we didnt have any lights so Saturday morning we went to buy some, had a trip to the cinema for their movies for juniors, we saw Cars 2 which Emy enjoyed and then we went into town as Emy had a dance exam. They had changed the time of the exam which I didnt know about so this ment hanging around in town for quiet a while! that evening we got the christmas lights out of the box to find they were tiny and not anywhere near enough to cover our tree, so we boxed them back up and put the decorating on hold again.

Sunday we had planned to go to a Christmas market, but the weather was very wet and with the market being outdoors we decided to give it a miss, but we did go and exchange the tree lights and then at tea time we went to a birthday party, complete with fireworks!

Monday Emy and Henry spent the day with my mum so me and Chris could spend a day together which was lovely, we went into town, decided on a few Christmas presents, had a look at the Christmas market which is really disapointing this year, we had pizza for lunch and then before setting off home had coffee and cake in Starbucks, I can really recommend their Gingerbread loaf cake! Once we were all home again, we finally decoated the Christmas tree :-)



Hope you all had a lovely weekend, do you have your tree up yet?
