It's Christmas❆

1.  Do you prefer a real Christmas tree or synthetic?

I love real Christmas trees, they just smell of Christmas (whatever Christmas smells like) but I don't think I could deal with the pine needles that fall out so a synthetic one is fine for me.

2.  You're in a coffee shop, it's December, what do you pick?

I've only just started to like coffee and I'm in love with mocha's at the minute but I really want to try Starbucks' Toffee Nut Latte (to taste and just so I can get a cute, red cup!)

3.  Whats your favourite colour scheme for decorating the tree?

In my bedroom I have a mini Christmas tree, the theme in my room is red, gold and white. The tree is white and the baubles are red and gold, I have lots of light up things in my room too. I even made my own little decoration (picture on the left!), it's a usual mason jar filled/sprayed with fake snow with a light up Christmas tree inside and finished off with a lace bow. It's a cute little DIY craft project to do for Christmas and it looks so sweet in my room.

4.  Giving or receiving?

Obviously it's lovely to receive presents but I enjoy giving them out too! I love writing the Christmas list of what you're getting everybody then ticking them off as you buy, wrapping them up and then giving them out. It's my chance to be Santa haha!

5.  To mince pie or not to?

No, no, no! I don't like the look/smell/taste of them, although I've not long discovered that it's not mincemeat as in proper meat it's actually fruits! (I lack in the common sense department) 

6.  What's your traditional Christmas lunch?

Our usual Christmas dinner includes Turkey, roast potatoes, parsnips, sprouts, carrots (ew), mash, stuffing, broccoli + cauliflower (we call them trees in our house) and pigs in blankets. Then we always have After Eight chocolates in the middle of the table, so we have a couple of them for dessert (rebelling against eating them after eight ooo).

7.  Christmas day fashion?

Each year we all wear our new clothes that we got for Christmas (Mum usually buys us an outfit) but this year we've gone for a theme that we're all going to wear Christmas jumpers. Mine is from Primark and was £12, it says 'I <3 Santa' on it and is super cosy. I got mine in a size bigger so that it's slouchy and more comfortable for Christmas day and I'm just going to pair it with some basic leggings and fluffy socks.

8.  What's your favourite Christmas song?

Oh my god I absolutely love Christmas songs, I don't think I could pick a favourite! I've just got the 'Now That's What I Call Christmas!' CD, and it has all the best Christmas songs to get me in the festive spirit. I've already wrapped my presents up and I put the CD on whilst doing them, and whilst I was decorating my Christmas tree.

9.  What's your favourite Christmas film?

I have a few... In our house all the Home Alone's have to be watched about 1000 times near Christmas, you can't beat Elf either 'the best way to spread Christmas cheer is singing loud for all to hear'! Each year on Christmas Eve, my family cosy up with the fire on in the living room in our new PJ's and watch a new Christmas film (we buy a new one each year). My mum and brothers love 'Nativity' so I think this years Christmas Eve film will be 'Nativity 2'.

10.  Open presents before or after lunch?

Who opens them after lunch? That's far too much waiting!! It's also my birthday on Christmas Day so I have my Christmas presents in the morning with my family and then after I'm full to the brim from my Christmas dinner, I open my birthday presents.

Christmas is my favourite time of year and I get WAY too excited for it...

I tag everyone who loves Christmas, if that's not you- BAH HUMBUG!

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and enjoy the holidays:)
