Welcome to day 11 of the Advent Blog Hop hosted by the lovely Jo at Serendipitous Stitching!
Here is my stitched piece I am sharing with you this year - I finished this last year but didn't take part in the blog hop so thought I would share now as it's a piece I am rather proud of :)
Holly and Hearts by Lizzie Kate |
Well, if it is a week day then me and my Fiancé will be working! Thankfully we usually get let out early on Christmas Eve so will be home about 4 or 5pm. Once home all the Christmas lights are switched on, candles are lit and a Snowball is made - Christmas Eve is not Christmas eve without a snowball!
Christmas Eve Snowball! |
After that we will watch a Christmas Movie - usually Miracle on 34th Street - I love that movie!
Then it is usually early to bed - I may be 28 going on 29 but I still always struggle to sleep on Christmas Eve!
Thank you for visiting my page as part of the Advent hop - make sure you check out everyone else and their Christmas Eve traditions too!
