As some of you know oxsarahxo sadly lost her baby girl Jessica Charlotte Reay hours after giving birth. We are arranging a star to be named after Jessica and a lantern for her resting place from all of us. We also thought it would be nice to make a contribution to Sarah & Matt so they can use it towards flower arrangements, head stone or resting place arrangements. If you would like to contibute please PM me for details.

What did you get up to today? Got much planned on the weekend? Get chatting! This thread is called 'What are you doing on Christmas day?' and is in our Lounge Area section. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | What are you doing on Christmas day? What are your plans?
Its just us for christmas (me, OH & Caitlin) thats all I want  We're pretty relaxed at Christmas as a couple just chilling at home so it will be the same with Miss Caitlin. Open our prezzies before we go to bed no doubt wake up to a baileys coffee, make a small none fussy (but yummy of course) dinner and chill with more snuggle infront of the coal fire, a couple of drinks, some mince pies & cream then probbaly still pop on here as usual  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | You have pressies xmas eve you mean??
Well id love to have a fairly quiet xmas, but we have me, sonny, Bethanie, my mum, my brother, sonnys mum, dad, brother, (maybe his gf), sonnys uncle, auntie and 2 cousins and sonnys grandad.. 14 in total.
It will just be us lot living here and my mum, brother and sonnys grandad for xmas morning.. then everyone else is coming over for lunch. The dinner table is being moved into the living room to have more space and they've ordered a big sheet of MDF to increase the table size! Got a feeling it's going to be a bit crazy, but fun!!
So excited, my number 1 priority will be Bethanie! can't wait to open her pressies with her! |

We usually get up really early in morn between 5 and half past, we all go downstairs in dressing gowns and slippers and open ours pressies, then chill out- play with the kids and stuff til bout half 7 - 8 ish. then i start preparing dinner, which this year will be turkey, ham, pork ,pigs in blankets, brussels, peas, carrots,broccoli, cauliflower, roast parsnips, boiled potatoes and roast potatoes followed by either xmas pud, mince pies, chocolate log or ice cream and toffee sauce. We have wine with dinner and i have baileys after- the other half may have a baileys but prefers a beer, we then just chill out with the kids playing games, watch tv, etc... til bed. we have a buffet on boxing day.cant wait now. i love seeing the kids faces when the unwrap the pressies. my tree is stuffed with pressies and all round back and coming out sides and its a really big 7 ft one! the cupboards are bursting!!! cant wait now lol, we have 6 kids so mayhem but great... one year i went shopping xmas eve and ended up with a bernard matthews turkey joint and peas!! xx  | | | | Status: Offline
