Christmas Traditions Week #1

We have a few festive traditions we always do over the next few weeks
here are the first of them!

The Late Late Toy Show
This tradition is with me since I was a child I remember
being allowed to stay up late with popcorn to watch this
My brother would fall asleep after a while but I always managed to
watch all of it! Of course as you get older it's less cold to watch it
but hubby and I always curl up with a hot chocolate to watch
and maybe next year Oisín will watch it too!

Putting our Christmas Decorations Up
I like to put our decorations up nearest to the 1st of December as I can
This year this meant putting them up the last week in November
We had a little helper this year Oisín was happy to help!
We waited to put up the tree until he was in bed
His face the next morning when he saw it was priceless

Console Concert
This was my third year at this beautiful concert
for families affected by suicide
It is a wonderful event that I always enjoy going to
It was also lovely that my Dad got to go this year too

So that's our traditions for this week
what are yours?

Over The Weekend #11

This weekend was the start of the busy ones!
We have something on every weekend from now to Christmas!

Friday Paul and I settled down to watch the Irish Tradition that is
The Late Late Toy Show every person in Ireland remembers watching it as a child
Oisín is still too young to stay up for it but we did Sky plus it and
he enjoyed watching it Saturday morning

I woke Saturday not feeling well again not as bad 
but it felt like my sinus where blocked and my ear was hurting too
I done my best to get over it and put our Christmas decorations up

We waited till Oisín had gone to bed to put the
tree up it takes awhile so I like to take my time over it

His face Sunday morning was priceless
he kept saying Wow over and over again!!


My parents and I then went to Console's annual concert
for families effected by suicide it was my Dad's first time at it
It was another beautiful concert and I came home 
with a lighter heart
