I cannot believe how organised we have been this year. All but a couple of the Christmas cards have been wrote and posted. There is less than 5 presents left to get, the rest are all wrapped. The tree is up and the lights, we just need to put up the outside stuff etc. The only thing we need to sort now is the food although we have got the turkey which has been ordered from this local farm shop that got recommended to us. They do really nice local produce, which apart from meat also includes amazing cheeses, sauces, eggs, potatos and seasonal veg.
As its our first Christmas as a married couple we are spending it together. Then on the 27th JTs mom, dad, nan and grandad are here for the day till about tea time. Hopefully then my parents are coming up with the dog. I really hope they can make it and nothing like the weather, or max not liking the car stops them coming up as it wont be christmas if we dont get to see them.
It will feel odd just me and JT on Christmas day, but we have such busy lives it just seemed like the right thing to do just for one year.
Talking of busy lives this week is no exception. Tuesday we are finally getting round to our Christmas baking. Wednesday is usually small group but we are all going out for a meal for my birthday. Thursday its my staff Christmas meal which me and JT are catering for. There are about 35 of us in total so it will be lots of sarnies etc to make. Friday we are heading down to my parents. Hopefully we will be able to see most of my friends on the friday and then saturday (my birthday 31st) we will be having a turkey dinner and a nice day with my parents. Sunday we are going to my home church's carol service. We are staying an extra night at my parents as mom has to have some test at the hospital on monday so we wanted to stick around a bit longer. We are hoping to get back about 7ish so that JT can have his last youth team for the year and i have a friend coming round for tea.
Anyway lunch is nearly over so im going to get back to work.
