Well we`ve just put the carrot, milk and mince pie out out....

I know there`s a few at the minute who (quite justifiably) aren`t/can`t get into the Christmas Spirit but the look of excitement on my little girls face as we just put Father Christmas`s and his reindeers` snacks out is pure magic!! :D
We watched Elf before she went to bed (watch the last 10 minutes with any Santa-believing child and look at their face (and your own..)) - again, pure unadulterated, innocent happiness!! - and just read her a Christmas story before sleep.
Great stuff!! :D :D :D :D

Time for a few beers now :-)

All the best everyone!

Ste

Treasure these precious moments, as apart from your childs birth, and Falkirk playing in the Scottish Cup Final :D , almost everything fades in to insignificance when you see the sheer joy and anticipation in the eyes of a young child on Christmas Eve.
Both our children are adults now so the enjoyment we shared with them when they were bairns at this time of the year is a wonderful memory that both my good lady and I will treasure forever.

Have a very Merry Christmas Ste, Mrs Ste, bairn and a Happy New Year when it comes.

Same here. Had a great evening. Kids went to bed at 8pm - normally they don`t settle for a while (they share a room & tend to chat), but they have gone spark out. Didn`t think they would with them being so excited. Probably means they`ll be up at 6am :/

Cheers
