Christmas week

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas with lots of laughter, love and good food. Life has been busy in the Bite-Sized Thoughts household for all the right reasons - my parents joined us from Australia on Christmas Eve and we have been soaking up their company after not seeing them for a year. Mini Bite was 5 months at their last visit and is almost 17 months now, so they are catching up on all her changes too.

We have enjoyed Christmas and ventured to some new local and semi-local sights - picture highlights below.

A present pile (and toy storage) all for Mini Bite


More presents (the walker wasn't one of them but was within the photo anyway!)

My Christmas tea and chocolate selection!

And some books to go with the edibles

I hope you are having a wonderful week and, as I probably won't post before, all the best for a very happy start to 2018!

  2. How wonderful to have some family time at Christmas. Tea, chocolate and books sounds like a wonderful present combination to me! Your Christmas table looks lovely; I hope you continue to enjoy the festive season and have some well deserved rest time too.

  4. Sounds lovely at your place, so good to hear that your parents have joined you for Christmas, shame about the weather though - but I guess that does not matter when the company is good. Mini Bite is thoroughly being spoiled - no doubt :) Your Christmas table looks lovely. I wish you and your little family a Happy New Year and look forward to reading more from the Bit Sized Thoughts blog. Also thank you so much for your continued support.

    1. I guess visiting in Dec/Jan brings the risk of winter weather - but better now than never and we have managed to dodge the worst of the cold and wet with indoor activities.

      Thanks to you too and wishing you a wonderful 2018 x

    1. Yes, it's a close draw between the family and the chocolate ;)
