Today's just been spent preparing and cleaning ready for the 'big day' tomorrow. Made a chocolate yule log for the first time which I'm really impressed with if I do say so myself.
Tomorrow will be a family day, just the four of us. Presents, Christmas TV, assembling new toys searching for batteries/screwdrivers, a massive roast, copious amounts of chocolate and home made ice-cream courtesy of my partner.
Boxing Day round my nan's house for food and more celebrations, there will be about 15 of us there in total. It's the first time we will all be together in a long time (apart from my late granddad, who I'm sure will be there in spirit) even my auntie, who due to the industry she works in does crazy hours over the Christmas period and often misses out on a lot of family gatherings, will be there which I'm stoked about
Day after that it's off to my partners parents house for a couple of days for more food and more presents.
Overall I'm pretty excited, doubt I'll be able to sleep tonight despite being absolutely pooped. I love Christmas.
