Blame It On Santa!

Woo hoo it's Monday before Christmas...
4 days to go until Santa has a bad back from lugging my presents.
Nibbles are here, there,everywhere, in the shops, & in my house....
When they are about, you can't stop....
I will stop in a minute...
Until there are no more :(
I will blame it on Santa ;)
 
So reminds me of a card I saw over the weekend!
Enjoy!

The Tale Of Two Santas

Another action packed Sunday.
First we looked around at Webb's.
Even looked around the huge free garden.
Then off to Waitrose for a free coffee.
Got more white fondant icing as it was only £1.50 for 500g!
Been slaving away making the Xmas cake.
Finally finished!
It's called "The Tale Of Two Santas!"
The bad Santa is in cuffs.
The good Santa arrives with Mrs Santa and 3 Reindeers!
Mrs Santa delivers the pie!

The Milkshake Is Not Supposed To Go There!!!

Woo hoo we have reached the Saturday before Christmas.
We was supposed to leave the house early...

We pulled off the drive about 10.30am!!!!
Santa Hat and Xmas jumper being worn!
Checked tyres and filled the Pink Princess up with diesel
Now on off to Kidderminster....
Loads of last minutes Xmas presents via the charity shops!
Popped into see my Father-in-law.
I don't know who needed to charge their mouth battery afterwards,
Me or Him!!
Bellies were rumbling...
So extra treat we went for pizza at Pizza Hut.
Came out to find someone had threw milkshake all over the Pink Princess.

Where's My Santa????

The countdown to Christmas is on.
