Life Lately #10



December 30, 2013

{Christmas flowers // Mexican dinner // Christmas for the cats // Christmas nails}
What a week! Having Christmas in the middle of it made it go by sooo quickly. We spent last weekend pretty much preparing for Christmas and the rest celebrating it and then getting over it. Is it just me that still has that holiday feeling?

** We made taco’s Monday night with some leftover roast chicken, and then had quesadillas with those leftovers Christmas eve. I think we should make it a new tradition to have Mexican food on Christmas eve.

** I made up the cat’s stockings on Christmas eve and had to hang them on the door instead of put them under the tree because they were already trying to peek. Sneaky.
** I cleared off the blue on all my nails except the snowflake nail to make room for red sparkles, because, well, Christmas calls for red sparkles.
{Crazy Christmas lights // Too much Christmas for George // Mulled wine // Adam and I}
** We stopped by Adam’s dad’s to give him some presents and say hi on Christmas and the people across from him were pretty into their lights. I don’t know about you, but to me, the more lights the better.
** George got a little tired out with all the Christmas excitement and stuffed his head between the couch pillows.
** Mulled wine for Christmas. Always a good idea
** Adam and I rosy after a few glasses of wine. He lost his paper crown by this point but he was a trooper and wore it pretty much the whole day.{Soup // Cute face // Snuggles // Park in the sun}
Crash has been super snuggly and let Adam take a nap with him the other day, and let me cuddle him for a good hour today. Does anyone else’s cat’s let them just hug them for a long time? We went to the park for a few hours today too, and I took a lot of pictures of swans, so I’ll show you those later this week.
Hope everyone had a great Christmas week! (It felt like a whole week of Christmas anyways!)

I will dream of the garlic mashed potatoes and truffle mac and cheese until I have them again. Everything was delicious except the sticky toffee pudding wasn’t anything to write home about, so grab the creme brûlée instead. Go with a friend who will share so you can try more dishes!

This year was one for the books, after starting th This year was one for the books, after starting the adoption process in lockdown 2020, we brought home a 6 year old the end of July and he’s turned our lives upside down and kept us laughing ever since. So this Christmas season was a pretty special one but also draining as there’s so many emotions swirling round this time of year that no one talks about. 

Here’s to more adventures in 2023 and hopefully some more calm moments!
