Christmas 2022

The photo above was taken on Christmas Eve. Hubby was given his Christmas sweater as a gift and even though we are in summer I had to get a pic of him wearing it!

I loved our Christmas SO much. As is our tradition we had a quiet day. This year was again filled with good food, Christmas movies, champagne and fun. I was thrilled with my new Garmin watch from hubby (I wore it on a run yesterday).

We had a beautiful, quiet day which started with coffee, croissants and Camembert cheese. Watched a few Christmas movies while I decorated the table and hubby started on the gammon. I must say his gammon was the best I’d tasted (and every year it is delicious). Seriously hubby outdid himself this year.

We sipped champagne while lunch was cooking and pulled crackers and had a great day. It was quiet and relaxed which is what I always enjoy. Years ago we used to try see everyone and fit everyone into a busy day. Used to spend ages driving around in the summer heat and when we got married we decided on starting a new tradition which is just the two of us soaking up the festivities and relaxing.

Here are some pics of the day.

TABLE DECORATIONS

I kept the Christmas decorations simple and chose a gold, blue and silver theme.

CHRISTMAS LUNCH

Hubby’s gammon which was fantastic, pumpkin fritters, creamed spinach, butternut and a potato salad was on our menu.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

As I type this it is New Years Eve! Cannot believe it is the last day of 2022 and that a new year with 12 fresh chapters are hours away.

Wishing everyone a wonderful New Years and the best for 2023.
