Sorry the late response! And thanks for the welcome
I'm a married mum of an 11 year old daughter, and a 10 year old daughter.
Ok at risk of sounding boring(!), my favourite part of Christmas is probably the planning! I'm a born list maker, and I really enjoy the planning, prep and everything else that happens in the run-up to Christmas day.
I'm feeling more Christmassy now that it's nearly July, and this year (I'm ashamed to admit for the FIRST year), I'm determined to stick to a budget. Which means careful planning!
