It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!!

And the proof is in the Christmas pudding! Or rather, in these likkle shots of our festively decked-out home.

We're so excited - Christmas is just the yummiest time of the year! We've got fairy lights around all the windows, icicle lights from the roof and porch (which are taking a battering in these gales - according to BBC Wales the winds topped 98mph here at Mumbles Head today!), and twinkly swags of stars draped from every given surface. It's so lovely to come home to all the warmth and light when it's so cold and grey outside.

Our colour scheme is actually purple and silver- but I love the way that these photos have got warmer tones to them cast by the unique glow of the fairy lights - so festive! Here are some snaps of the little things that make our home feel special at this time of year.

And most importantly for those of you who want a likkle photo update of my beautiful niece Ellie - here she is at three weeks old! What a monkey! She's now feeding like a hungry horse and putting on lots of weight! I can't believe that she will be a month old on Thursday!
Take care my lovelies xxx
