I always find these sharing awards lots of fun and a great way to give my favourite bloggers a big shout out. Thank you to Kelstagram for nominating me to join the ‘Lovely Blog’ club.
I recently did a post where I shared 20 random facts about me, so I thought I’d make these seven facts a little different by making them ‘festive’ facts.
7 Festive Facts about Me
1) Every year just before Christmas I have to watch The Holiday, Love Actually and The a Family Stone. Yes I said have to, it’s just not Christmas if I haven’t watched these trio.
2) Although, my favourite Christmas film is actually Elf (of course!).
3) The night before Christmas I give my daughters a parcel to open, inside there’s a pair of new pyjamas and a dress for Christmas Day. I’ve done this for the past three years, it’s become our little family tradition.
4) Here are my Christmas mugs and yes, they’re already out! They’re from Cath Kidston’s Christmas collection a few years ago and I love them!
5) On Christmas night three years ago my husband and I decided it was time to have another baby. Eleven months later Poppy was born.
6) My favourite Christmas meal has to be the big Boxing Day buffet! Followed by a box of chocolates in front of the TV.
7) In the lead up to Christmas I love watching Jamie’s Festive Feast and making his Epic Hot Chocolate. It’s thick and delicious - and very naughty! But hey, it’s Christmas.
One extra silly fact! Here is my favourite Christmas tree decoration…

Oh, I love this. I adore those Cath Kidston mugs. I also give Little Miss H a similar gift on the night before Christmas (or at least I did last year, her first Christmas). It also includes her stocking, a Christmas book and a little Christmas toy. I am really excited about doing it again this year. Thanks for tagging me darling. I am thrilled that you have included me as a lovely blogger. Hugs Mrs H xxxx
