22nd December: And the Jigsaw is Complete(ish)!

 
1: Balloons Judith got when she left Lybster - still going strong as Christmas balloons

2: Pig in Blanket has been in 4 different places today!

3: Looking very promising!

4: A Santa Russian Doll which has been with us for a loooong time!

5: (One of) Orlando's tree decorations

6: One Mum and Dad brought back from their trip a few years ago.

7: The nearly complete jigsaw (read on...)

8: Jess being wrapped-up for Christmas. She was very interested in the paper, so wrapping her up was a logical step!

9: Blood Orange Cider - a festive tipple!

10: The promise of spring... Bluebell shoots shooting!

11: It took a lot of commitment today...

12: Four candles (fork handles?!) lit on the Advent Wreath - not long now!

13: Oh dear! There is a piece missing and we're pretty sure Jess is responsible!

14: Orlando has also been in the doghouse...

15: ...Because of this. He decided he wanted Euan's present and just went ahead and unwrapped it!

16: Alexa is also getting into the festive spirit (she has been trying not to, but Judith is insistent)

17: A festive quiz! We love sitting down together and having a go at these!

18: Judith is now on her third colouring-in picture of this season...

19: ...She does it while Mum reads this to us!

20: One of a pair of beautiful bonbon dishes Lydia and Euan gave us.

21: Where there isn't a wreath on a door, there are still decorations! This is a crocheted Christmas Tree made by our friend, Dot.

22: And then there are the decorations which are a bit worse for wear after the years of use, but you still can't bring yourself not to use them!
