The Christmas Tree

I think this must be the earliest I've ever had a tree. For as long as I can remember before children I was very strictly a Christmas Eve girl - which made for some interesting (some years highly stressful) last minute tree - hunting expeditions. I've relaxed since then to the week before Christmas, but this year is different.

This year we are squeezing every last drop out of Christmas and celebrating until it squeaks.

Charlie & Teddy took it in turns to carry the tree home. By themselves. For just over a mile. They really are the best poppets.
