My photo
I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

Our Christmas Tree

 


As you all know I have 3 cats and a young daughter aged 4. So cats, kids and Christmas Trees don't really go well do they! So a few years ago, we decided to get a cat/kid proof tree and this is it. It took a while to get used to it, now I love it. I always say there is more room at the bottom for extra gifts haha! The reindeer is a new addition to the family, we got him a few weeks ago! I am not a fan of tinsel or lights.

So is everyone in the festive mood yet? I cannot say I am :-| I have been listening to a lot of Christmas music trying to get into it and watching a lot of those new Christmas films on Netflix too. I highly recommend Love Hard (2021), it really enjoyed that one.

  1. Oh, adoring the tree! & the reindeer too! About the Vegan Fudge question: This works great with coconut condensed milk! At first you might not think it will set, but just keep it in the fridge a little longer. And mine that I have I have kept at room temperature since it set and it's great!

  2. So sweet! Yes, we have a very small one on the end table in the corner and that has helped. We have homemade ornaments of cat pics of our cats on the tree.

  17. That tree requires less ornaments, that's for sure.

  25. Adorei a decoração! Realmente a iluminação será de evitar com uma criança pequena por perto e os gatos que são sempre uns bicharocos curiosos sobre tudo!
    Estimo que tenham passado um Natal muito feliz! Não consegui chegar aqui a tempo... o mês de Dezembro sempre passa num piscar de olhos, sem eu nunca descobrir para onde foi o tempo... mas continua a ser o meu mês favorito... mesmo não podendo ainda aproveitá-lo tão bem como antes da pandemia... por enquanto! Continuo a evitar muitas saídas e aglomerações, para a minha mãe, passar a época sem problemas...
    Saúde para todos! Beijinhos! Feliz 2023!
    Ana
