Roxy and Izzy

I finally figured out how to record videos on my camera and couldn't resist making a silly little one of Roxy and Izzy. Love these two furry faces!

A Christmas recap

Christmas actually ended up being lovely this year, suprisingly. We kept it quiet and low key and made sure we had a lot of things planned to keep us busy. We had Christmas dinner at my Mum's with my sisters.



We had my favourite ever tree this year too. When we first moved into our house three Christmases ago, we were poor from the move a month prior and too busy and stressed to think about it much so we ended up just buying a big tub of generic, matching baubles from B&Q. We used them again the following year as again we were too busy and stressed planning our wedding to think about it much then too.

This year I said "no more awful B&Q baubles!" and refused to put them on our tree. We always get a real tree, but this year I wanted one in a pot which we could replant so we ended up with a cute little tree.

We had acquired a few really nice baubles, and we bought a few more in December from various markets and from a last minute trip we took to Edinburgh for the weekend. My sisters and I also had a crafting day, where we made some decorations too which actually ended up being one of the highlights of Christmas.

Bye Tree...

They're cutting my tree down!



I'm so sad; I love this tree, I think it's beautiful and it drops leaves in gorgeous shades of red, brown and gold all over my garden. But we need to make room so Adam can have a garage/store in the garden.

I'll be sad to see the tree go, but I have to look at the positives; no longer using my dining room as storage, which means that I can finally get a new dining table and a chalkboard wall!

And at least I have this cute little face with me to cheer me up:



It's been a bit quiet over here of late, my laptop broke and so I am photoshop-less! But I just ordered a new copy which I hope to get soon, so I can get back to a semi-regular posting schedule.

This pup...

This pup is this naughtiest puppy ever - but she's also this sweetest, most playful, and funniest which more than makes up for it. She brings me such joy every day.

Pictures from my weekend: Roxy

Our weekend has pretty much revolved around this little lady. We're quite head over heels with her already <3
