Getting the house ready for Xmas

My favourite time of year has arrived. Getting the house ready for Christmas. I love opening our Christmas boxes up and seeing all the ornaments once again. Most of the pieces have some stories with them. Makes me smile :)

The kids were also happy to have a big tree up. Since we will be away in NZ for almost 3 weeks we have decided to decorate the house now so that when we come back the house is nice and cosy with red and green and gold colours.

It will be our first time to celebrate Christmas in our new apartment. We are very excited!!
