So, what did Father Christmas bring you? Interestingly, some of our favourite gifts were the free ones. These are the ones I'm most proud of (or, the ones of which I am most proud):
Yes, bird-watching.
We get quite a variety of birds visiting our garden and, over the last few months, I've noticed
So, this Christmas, we decided we'd get library books for each other (our reasoning is that if we really want to buy something, it'll be cheaper after Christmas anyway, plus we're trying to go for consumable gifts so as not to add to the clutter).
The plan was to go to the library, split up, find books for each other, take them out, hide them so as not to ruin the surprise, wrap them up and give them to each other on Christmas day. Having made a note of this
WIN!
What a brilliant gift idea! Love it! You are so sweet and clever! I got Mr M a few wildlife and bird books a few years back, felt a bit middle aged but he really likes them.
ReplyDeleteAnd if it makes you feel any better, we just took our decorations down today, and haven't gotten round to putting them in a box in the attic yet. The living room does look very sad and plain without them though!
I am excited that a pair of red kites have moved into the valley. They are still quite rare here and are spectacular to watch.
