Christmas 2013!

Christmas this year came and went quicker than I can name all the reindeers (I don't even know if I can name all the reindeers ), but I had a great time celebrating with friends and family.


On Christmas Eve we had many of our friends over (including Abi and her family) for a little party. Our house was full of people catching up and children running around playing hide and seek. Just the way we like it. I wore an elf top and ate way too much and had a great night.

This was one of the selfies we took on the night, with our lovely friend Fiona.
 
Just after midnight everyone left so their children could get ready for bed and wait for Father Christmas to arrive.
 
On Christmas Day, my brother, sister and I ran down the stairs to make our parents a coffee each (that's one of their rules for Christmas Day, the other is no getting them up before 8am). We then went into their room and opened our presents. I had loads of lovely gifts from everyone, including a brand new camera from good old Father Christmas ;)
 
I ate lunch with my family and my Grandparents. And my Dad's roast potatoes are to die for, they are soo good!
 
 
 
Later that evening we went to my other Grandad's house and spent time with the other side of my family and we played our traditional game of pass the parcel. (I don't even know why we do it - but we all enjoy it)
 
On Boxing Day, we went to my Nana and Grandads for a buffet. Since my sister and I both had new cameras the day before, after dinner we spent ages playing around with the settings on our cameras.
 

 
I have thoroughly enjoyed the festive season and I have loved spending time with my family and friends. I hope you had a good one too!
 
Lots of love,
Josie

Life Update.

 
So it turns out, Abi and I are pretty rubbish when it comes to updating this blog. However we both have been ridiculously busy with A Level and university work, so we hope you can forgive us :)
 
We have both been feeling the stresses of having loads of work and other stuff to do and have had no time to keep up with this blog. But now with the Christmas holidays coming, I have a lot more time on my hands and there are a couple of posts I have planned in my head to write up.
 
And I can't wait to get see Abi again, it's been almost four weeks since I've seen her (which feels like forever - damn living in different cities!), and hopefully over Christmas we can blog together!
 
I am really looking forward to getting home and spending time with my family and friends over the festive period and being able to document it for you to see :)
 
Lots of love,
Josie
