Hope this makes sense! I love Christmas, I want to get loads of food, cooks delicous things, tons of decorations, fancy wrapping etc etc... but there's only DP and 3yo DS! DP would be genuinely happy to never get a gift for the rest of his life whereas I LOVE presents! Seems a waste to only wrap his few things extravagantly and he's not that into Christmas.
Families are hundreds and hundreds of miles away so we don't travel up often as very expensive even though still in UK. Small gifts are bought online and sent direct so no wrapping opportunities!
We do have friends nearby but we've never been the sort of friendship group to throw Christmas parties! I could change that I guess but our lives are so different it's hard to all get together. The neighbours would never pop round or what have you.
Anyone out there who goes all out for a small family? Feels like a waste of money really. Any tips for small budget extravagance welcome!
