Hope you all had a wonderful day. Mine was very pleasant, I spent mine at home with my mum and sister, getting up at 8am to open presents together (I also got this mini lightbox off my mum)
We listened to festive songs and watched some films. My mum cooked this year and OMG it was amazing. Even though we don't have a dining table anymore, we managed =] we had prawn cocktails for starters then moved on to the main:
It was so tasty and so filling, couldn't move afterwards and I was full for hours. As it got later on, my auntie and uncle came round to open more presents and feast on more food, which at this point, I was still full from dinner, I didn't nap at all yesterday, then decided to take myself off to bed at the early time of 8pm, I was so tired and full.
I had a good time this year and I'm grateful for all the presents I received and I am happy with all the presents I gave too, seeing my sisters face light up when she opened her presents was an amazing feeling.
Now on to the best part of this post: What I got this year:

We finally put our decorations up last night and the house looks so much better.
It was my turn to decorate the wall tree, so as you can see, its mostly jewel colours with some silver in it as well. Also the lights are coloured but they don't show up.
Were not religious but I always put the nativity set out every year.
Me and my sisters stockings.
My mum and sister decorated the main tree this year and this is what they came up with, this tree has white lights on. (Not pictured, but we put blue lights round the bay window)
If you saw my blogmas posts from last year, you would of seen this, but this time, I attached mine to my door.
