Good evening all!
I hope you are all well and looking forward to the month ahead - December tomorrow! Eek!
I arrived home tonight to a wonderful gift I had to share with you all. This year I was one of the lucky winners of Andrea's annual event whereby she stitches ornaments throughout the year and then very kindly sends them to new homes each Christmas.
Here is mine...
Isn't it wonderful? and so perfectly finished too!
It also came with a very nice handmade card, thank you so much Andrea :)
The card is now sat with my others (I have received 5 already!) and the ornament is hanging proudly on the tree along with some other handmade ornaments - I am getting quite the collection!
I can't wait to see what the other winners got too :)

Bucket List Friday - Five Places to Visit Before I Die
Greetings!
Something a little different today - Keebles asked the question, and travel is one of my passions so I just had to join in this week!
Like many people I sadly don't have the funds/time to travel as much as I would like, but that doesn't stop a girl from dreaming! Here is my top five (in no particular order)
#1 Reykjavik, Iceland.
This has been a long standing destination on my list, and I dare say in the next year or two I may finally get the opportunity to cross it off my list! It's only a short two hour flight from where I am and I think the place looks truly magical.

#2 Disneyland, Paris
Considering I have visited Walt Disney World in Florida a number of times which is a 8 - 9 hour flight to me it seems ridiculous I have still yet to take a trip to Disneyland, Paris (a mere <2 hour flight). I love Disney, what more is there to say?
#3 Venice, Italy
Another place I have wanted to visit for years, I think Italy as a whole is a place I could happily visit time and time again. Thankfully this one will be crossed off next year, as this is one of the stop off points on our Honeymoon!
#4 New York City, USA
Again, another which has been on the list for a long time. I always said I would go for my 30th Birthday, but with the Wedding and Honeymoon next year that won't happen now. Perhaps I can aim for my 40th ;)
#5 Cocos (Keeling) Islands
This was another potential Honeymoon destination for us. With a population of less than 600 people I think it would be an ideal place to just escape from day to day worries and relax. In reality I would probably be bored after two or three days. I don't really do beach holidays, we aren't the sunbathing type. Perhaps once I am retired and too old to do anything else haha.
