With children and Grandchildren
I’ll be spending it at home with all the family, and I can’t wait!! Luckily my husband enjoys cooking so we make a good team :o)
We’ll wake up in our own house in Glasgow, drive to the opposite side of the city for lunch with my family then drive to Perthshire for dinner and overnight stay with the in-laws. It’s a busy day but it’s lovely to see the whole family on Christmas Day (especially as it’s also my birthday!)
I’ll be at home cosy in the beautiful Yorkshire Wolds, thinking about what books to take with me to Australia.
I will be spending it at home – sleeping on the living room floor so that everyone else can have a bed!
Christmas will be spent at home with my partner, probably binging on chocolate and Netflix!
For the first time since my son was born five years ago, we’ll be spending Christmas at home. Family are descending on us this time and we’re all getting giddy with excitement!
