November is drawing to a close, after a mild start to the winter, it is getting cold, cold.
Early morning leaf raking: and hours of fun in the huge pile of leaves. It is so cold now that no-one complains about hats and coats…and gloves…
And the best part! Hot tea and scones for the cold bodies who come in 🙂
I’m working on a prototype for a teeny tiny doll… Grace made a “dress” and head gear, then arranged it all on a plate with pipeclearer decorations! I love when she does something so unusual and creative… very like her older brother Michael, when he was her age…
And so we move towards December; I love Advent: the countdown to Christmas, the warmth and cosiness. This is the season for hot chocolate and delicious baking; being squished on the sofa watching a movie; reading and stitching and lots and lots of cuddles!
You paint a beautiful picture, I want to just snuggle up on the couch by the fire after reading this. Enjoy the build up to Christmas, I prefer the build up more than the event itself!
Me too Elizabeth! I just LOVE the few weeks before!
Cant believe Christmas is so close!! Woohoo 🙂 beautiful pictures, everyone enjoying the outdoors xxx
I used to love those days too! And scones and hot chocolate were my speciality as well 🙂
oooohhhh must make some scones tomorrow. thanks for the reminder.
Gorgeous photos, Emily….says she whizzing past the Beatrix Potter plate before a child here sees it and wails for one of their own!
oh goodness, that adorable little fairy doll – you’re incredible.
