Winter Bucket List 2011/12

Although it is not officially Winter yet, I am going ahead with our Winter Bucket List because there are quite a lot of Christmas activities on the list as well. We did nearly all the things on our Fall Bucket List & I really enjoyed having the list when we were looking for things to do. It also helped us to not forget things that we wanted to do.

So here’s our Winter Bucket List 2011/12:

What are your Winter plans if you are in the Northern hemisphere? Summer plans if you are in the Southern hemisphere?

Fashion on Friday – Long Time

It’s been a few weeks since I posted any fashion on Friday. I’m actually really enjoying being a bit less strict with my blogging, not feeling like I have to post things just for the sake of it. It’s been good. I’m enjoying the variety of things that I have been blogging about too. It’s liberating.

I love this time of year & I’m excited that I’m making at least one gift for everyone in my family this year – some are getting more than one handmade thing too! My biggest stressor at the moment is losing things! It’s driving me nuts. Joseph is lost from the Playmobil Nativity set & that just makes me sad. I’ve lost my main lens cap from my camera & Jude’s favourite science kit has gone missing. Sigh. Sometimes I really just want to get rid of EVERYTHING and start over again. Not very practical though. It’s especially frustrating as I’m usually the one who can find things – my Grandma had an amazing gift for that & I like to think I have a little bit of that gift too. So it drives me nuts when I can’t find stuff. Keep calm, pray & keep looking!
