I have always loved Christmas, not just the day itself, but all the preparations, the traditions and the aftermath. When the children were little there was so much going on and so much excitement - school plays and parties, carol services, lots of craft activities beforehand, the whole exciting santa thing, lots of toys and games to be assembled and enjoyed, even Christmas tv was exciting. So now they are all grown up but not yet coupled up so still come home to us for at least a few days over Christmas. For the last couple of years we have shaken it up by having an assortment of friends to stay but this year it will just be the five of us. There are some family traditions which we all really want to keep but I would really like to inject a bit of more age-appropriate fun into things. Anyone got any suggestions for a lovely grown-up family Christmas holiday?
