And all through the house....
People were making a complete and utter mess!!
Christmas Eve in our household is usually a time where the entire village comes over to eat copious amounts of food, drink excessive amounts of alcohol and have a jolly good time. This year was no exception!
This year was a smaller crowd of both sets of grandparents, my aunt and uncle with their 4 kids, our next door neighbor, a friend from down the road with her daughter and some old family friends with their 2 kids as well....yep small crowd.
After the food is consumed, we tend to sit around having a good old gossip and a catch up until someone utters those famous words of "Santa will be here soon, we should get going"
I don't know about anyone else but this still excites me and gets me jumping about like a hyperactive child. I would like to point out that I am the older sister but when it comes to Christmas EVERYONE thinks I am the younger of the two. Not going to lie, still put out a carrot and mince pie for when Father Christmas arrives!!
Over the last few years I have been one of Santa's little helpers and put presents under the tree. Last year it was a bit of a shock and I didn't really know how to deal with things, thinking it would spoil the magic of Christmas but it actually excites me more as I get to see what the tree looks like before going to bed and....oh dear Mum, mistake number 1, I will not sleep tonight, in fact, this year I spent a good half an hour sending silly videos of myself to one of my best friends....she was in the same position! I know our parents were thinking "Damn kids!"
