Another year, another grotto

I wasn’t sure we would make it to a grotto this year but, when I asked Anya if she’d like to go she was keen. I feel like it might be her last year so was determined to find one. People book them in advance so early now, it’s nearly impossible to go spontaneously. I found this one in a local garden centre where we didn’t have to book and could just turn up. They both know it’s not the ‘real’ one anyway so really it’s just for the festive experience and of course he’ll pass any messages on to FC.
We continued the day with festivities; collecting greenery for the wreath and later creating it, lighting a candle for my grandma in church, making decorations and listening to Christmas carols.
