I love Christmas, always have and always will. I am sure you can tell with the snowflakes going on here. My kids are sick of listening to my Christmas carols on Spotify because I have been playing them since November. Yea I am crazy about Christmas like that. I use to love Christmas as a child, it was one of my favourite times in the year and it still is. I want my kids to love Christmas like that. There is so much to be thankful for.
Christmas is one of those seasons I just want to sit back, forget about work and all the troubles in life, and just enjoy the festive season with my loved ones. But I must confess, the best part of Christmas, is the counting down to the day. The build up is filled with decorations, Christmas gifts shopping (catch up on my Christmas gift idea posts if you missed them), the carols and the whole fuss.
This year will be a very different kind of Christmas and I can’t wait. I am putting the magic back into Christmas with a proper holiday in an amazing sunny location. I will be going on a proper holiday, the first proper holiday outside the EU since 2012, and I am really looking forward to it. I won’t be blogging as often as I regularly blog (which is daily), I will be taking time off blogging and social media to unwind and get ready for the new year. I am not too sure how many days I would take off blogging or how active/inactive I will be on social media yet. I am still planning my schedule and blog content for the rest of the year, so I will keep you all updated. But it looks like I will have my last post up on the 22nd, and drop in briefly after Christmas with a post or 2, then resume as normal after New Year.
I have not really taken time off the blog in a very long time so I am eagerly looking forward to this time off. God knows I need it so badly.
But for now you still have me. Don’t forget to enter my giveaway for a chance to win a Black Lenovo 7 Inches Tablet worth £89.99. I hope it brightens someone’s Christmas this year. It ends on 16th December, so get in there. Good luck.

Thanks for reading and enjoy the season.
I am looking forward to not getting up for work and I will do my best to have a break from blogging totally…
Yea you should..
I also blog daily, sometimes twice. Not sure how I’m going to cope with having a break from it all.
I felt the same way last Christmas. I wasn’t sure how I would cope but I took some days off. It was the best thing I ever did.
Have an amazing holiday and relax, you truly deserve it x
Thanks Rhian x
I hope you have a wonderful trip! For me the anticipation of such a holiday is half the pleasure! I’m having a lazy Christmas this year.
Ah sounds nice Kavey.
Have a fantastic trip! I’d love to go away for Christmas one year
Thanks Lyndsey. I can’t wait..
Your kids might be sick of listening to your Christmas carols now, but they will always look back on it as a special part of their Christmases when they were kids. I hope you have a wonderful holiday and enjoy your break from blogging so often.
Thanks Sarah x

Oh wow very jealous of the sun you’re going to have. Enjoy it and you’re break from blogging x
Thanks Kerry x
I’m so exited for Christmas, I’m basically a big kid when it comes to the festive season! I definitely plan on chilling lots, although for me I actually find the time off work is a great time to catch up with blog posts, so will kinda be doing the opposite haha.
Oh good. Enjoy the season Milly..
Enjoy the break. I am sure it will be amazing and we will all look forward to reading about it next year.
Thank you..
I love Christmas too, my tree went up on the 1st and every morning I’m tell my girls how long until Christmas day. We even have two of santa’s elves staying with us. Just wish everyone was like us, my youngest came out of school today crying because someone told her santa wasn’t real.
OMG..Who told her that? Awww
Some other girl in her class
