Hey lovelies. Today I thought I would do the Christmas Tag because despite being on here for almost three years, I don't think I've ever done this.
What's your favourite Christmas movie?
Elf. Obviously, you can't beat Elf at Christmas time. However I also really love all the Home Alones!
Do you open presents on Christmas morning or Christmas evening?
We've always opened our presents on the morning. The excitement in our household just gets too much and we couldn't wait till the evening, even if we tried. However we do see family in the evenings at dinner, so I guess we open them in the evening too. However the majority are opened in the morning.
Do you have a favourite Christmas memory?
Every Christmas is amazing. Every year they get better and better. However, we have all these family videos from when me and my sister were younger, and in one of them you see me open my first baby born. I was so chuffed, and had the biggest grin. That's my favourite memory ever. I just looked so content. But as I said Christmas gets better every year.
What's your favourite festive food?
Christmas Pudding. As much as I love Christmas dinner, nothing beats the Christmas Pudding that comes afterwards. We usually have it at my nans on Boxing Day and it makes me feel so warm on the inside.
What's been your favourite Christmas gift?
My dolls house, when I was younger my parents bought me a gorgeous wooden dolls house. It was kitted out with the most stunning vintage furniture and diddy little dolls. I was in love with it, I'm pretty sure it's in our loft still. I'd love to give it to my children when I'm older. I got so much enjoyment out of this. Pretty sure I spent the rest of that Christmas Day in the corner arranging all my furniture. Sad part is I'd enjoy doing that now..
What's your favourite Christmas scent?
Anything with a spice to it. I love any cinnamon/ginger scents around this time of year. But I am also a sucker for Yankee's Christmas Cookie - the complete opposite to cinnamon as it's a super sweet scent. But it lingers around the room without having to be lit which I love.
Do you have a Christmas Eve Tradition?
Every year mum makes up a box, and puts our Christmas pjs in there. She also usually pops in a few Christmas DVDs that we all watch together throughout the night. There's always a little card too and mum often likes to make us home made gifts too, Another tradition is one me and my sister made, every Christmas Eve she hops into my bed for the night, we plait each others hair and watch Elf together. Cute.
What tops your tree?
An angel to remember all those in our family who have passed, I'm pretty sure we've never had a star,
As a child, what was the one (crazy, extravagant) gift you wanted but never got?
A life size doll and thank god I never got one, there far too creepy. You used to be able to get dolls the size of real toddlers and I longed for one so bad but it never happened. Probably because mum was terrified of them haha.
What do you think is the best part of Christmas?
Everything. Although every Boxing Day everybody from my dads family goes to my nans house for Boxing Day, we pig out on another Christmas dinner, and more treats. We also play games, watch the Christmas specials and all just hang out. I'd be lost if we didn't do this. I love Christmas because it means my whole family get together and I can't stop smiling when they do.
