Let the Xmas Celebrations Begin

Xmas Day in Ynyslas

I think Morgan may have broken a record on Christmas Day as he managed to make it start at 2:30am! Santa had already been, so he came into our bed with his stocking and opening the presents in it. For some reason Santa must have been punishing us as he had left him an electronic...

It’s Beginning To Feel a Lot Like Christmas

We usually have a rule in our house that the Christmas decorations can’t go up until after my birthday on the 11th December. However, after our Christmas weekend away and the fact that lights were popping up everywhere, I was beginning to feel in the Christmas spirit so  couldn’t wait to get them up. Morgan...
