Well, it wouldn’t be me if I wasn’t just a little late. Christmas tends to sneak up on me. Even when I THOUGHT was was going to be ready on time…there’s always last minute things that pop up. This was the first Christmas in our new house. We of course wanted to make sure it was JUST RIGHT. It began with decorating the outside. We could do WHATEVER WE WANTED. The trouble is – deciding. We fell in love with these little Canadian Geese at the store and knew they had to be on our front lawn. Picked up some candy canes to line the front. This is where the discussion began: IS there a correct way to place a candy cane? The answer is YES! Haha! (At least for my OCD side).

We have a lot of cardinals in our area – so it was most appropriate that would be our new Christmas ornament. The kitties in their favourite spots: one in a broken basket, the other under the tree. Oh! And my family sent the most BEAUTIFUL floral arrangement for our table.
Anyone who knows me, knows my obsession with Bath and Body Works. Well Christmas scents are definitely a part of MY holiday!
I’m getting pretty desperate for some LIVE MUSIC. We had a lot of fun watching the “virtual” CP Holiday Train concert this year.
The baking was the ONE THING I had done on time this year. It is not unusual for me to be making the Christmas cookies on the 26th. Haha! Someone else was super excited about the cookies too!
Took a trip out to Upper Canada Village just before Christmas to see all the lights and of course, ride the little train. It was quite cold – but OH so beautiful!! Even got to see Santa! Safely. From a distance.
Every year we come up with a fancy cocktail. This year we decided, since we were not making the turkey Christmas day (ALWAYS fun to drink and cook…hahah!) – we would have our drink for Christmas eve. This is a Clausmopolitan. And it was DE-LISH!
This is my FAVOURITE Christmas song. Coming home by the Trews. Can’t wait until we are seeing live music again. These guys are definitely at the top of my list!!
Christmas would not be complete without a GREAT Christmas mug. I think this family has succeeded. 😉

I hope everyone had a happy and safe holiday!! Can’t wait to do it again next year!! Merry Christmas!!
