stars stars stars stars stars

Since I have come home everything has been a whirlwind. The happiest whirlwind you can possibly imagine. A whirlwind of smiles, hugs and kisses. Of laughs and christmas songs. Of homecooked food. of movies and christmas decorations. of plays and trips out. of fairy mail and secret whispers. of santas grotto and hundreds of stars.

I took my younger sister and brother out shopping, and we got lots and lots of sweeties, and some hot chocolate, and had fun in toy shops. I met this lego santa, and he was just lovely. I wanted to take him home. Mother made us homemade caserole and dumplings on the first day. On the second it was pies. On the third, pea and ham soup. perfect.

Lots of cups of tea and hot chocolate. custard creams and smarties cookies.

I went to my little brothers school play, which was just wonderful. he was wonderful. he was telling the story. There was also little snowflakes, and little stars, and little angels, and little shepards and little elves who came onto the stage and did dances and songs. There were children dressed up as presents. Lots of smiles.

I have caught up with my advent calendar. I have found my old polly pockets, who have been playing with my brothers star wars toys. I have been to santas grotto. My little brother was shy, and blushed, but absolutely adored it. The elves let me take a picture to show you all...

Lots of chistmas lights to put up. and decorating to be done. and lots of deliveries this morning to make me smile. This morning I think i was possibly the happiest person in the world. I recieved my fairy mail, from my bestest moon friend lottie, the little angel. It was amazing. I opened up the envolope very carefully to find starry starry stars... they tumbled out and floated all around. I was leaving a trail of stars with me all morning. Mother said it was like the trail in hansel and grettle, but stars instead of breadcrumbs. I liked that. To keep them safe, I put them in a jar. In there I also (untill we decorated the tree) put the lovely sparkly big star lottie sent me too. And the lovely letter she wrote in ever so perfect delicate writing. The other gift she sent was magic stars. They did not go in the jar. They went in my tummy!! The other delivery was a christmas tree. a huge magical christmas tree. We paid our yearly visit to a special place that sells lots and lots of wonderful decorations, and sugar mice, and chocolate coins, and turkish delight. I chose a little sparkley owl this year, to go with my wonderful starry star from little lovely lottie. The tree is breathtaking. I cannot wait to put little wrapped presents underneath.

Being here is amazing. I have a constant fluttery feeling in the bottom of my tummy. To top off the most magical day, my boyfriend is someing home aswell. He is coming all the way from our uni flat today, and will be just down the road with his family.

I love movies before bedtime, snuggled up with a blanket, jamas, cup of tea and family. Beauty and the beast. Shrek. Elf. The Grinch. wonderful.

I apologise to all of you lovely sweet lovelies for my lack of commenting back. I have been reading your comments, and they are wonderful, and making me smile that extra bit wider. However doing anything on here from home is rather difficult. It has taken me 5 hours to do this post. It is incredibly slow and restarts itself at random times, and then takes 20 mins to be ready to do anything again. During making this post it restared 3 times. Uploading photos from my camera crashes the computer for a while. and to top it off, we keep it in the utility/garage room, which is basically like sitting outside, so my fingers feel like ice. So all in all it is rather difficult to comment back, but i am making my way through replies slowly. if you dont get a reply please dont be offended, i love all of the beautiful comments i recieve!!

One last thing, before i finally finish this post, the sweet sprinkle gave me the beautiful award i mentioned in my last post. I got it twice!!! Thank you ever so much. I dont deserve such sweetness.

You are all lovely. I am ever so sorry i am not going to be as good at blogging as usual over christmas. but i will try ever so hard for all of you. promise. please dont stop your comments, they are a joy to read, even if the computer throws a wobbly when i try to reply!!

sweet dreams.
