    grub - we do similar things to your family.

    Each year I buy the girls a special decoration, and I write the year on it. They each have a bauble with their name on for their first christmas.

    We also set the tree up on the 1st of December, and Dh picks all three girls up and they place the star on the tree. (we all wear our santa hats while we decorate.

    We have an advent calendar - and the 'christmas fairy' leaves a small treat for them each day on the lead up to christmas.

    There is a Carols in the Park nearby, so we usually try to go to that each year as well.

    Instead of buying christmas cards, each year since dd1 was born, I have taken a photo of them, dressed in a red outfit and wearing a santa hat (most of the time anyway lol ) and send them out to everyone. Everybody always looks forward to receiving their card , and if i'm a little late, people start to get worried lol.

    I love Christmas
