Christmas Night Shopping

Christmas only comes once a year and I couldn't wait to spend my Friday night Christmas shopping while looking at the lights. Everything feels so much more magical and special at this time of year don't you think? We weren't out shopping for long but it was still an exciting trip out. The Christmas tree looks so beautiful this year and so over the top, I love it! I also love the big reindeers too - they were without a doubt my favourite! I really am going to be sooo sad when they get taken down. The Christmas markets have already gone! I think I'm going to be even more upset when we take down out Christmas tree. Anyway, I'll stop being depressing now. Christmas is almost here!

Did you love our photographs?

  22. I agree that this time of year is undoubtedly the most magical and I'm so glad I'm not the only one stressing about how it'll feel to take down the Christmas tree and decorations! As you've quite rightly said though, let's be sure to focus on Christmas right now! :)

  46. This looks just plain lovely, I wish I was there! It just looks so festive and cheery. Christmas where I live, Las Vegas, isn't as nice as this. Of course the hotels decorate pretty elaborately, but there's something about being outside with lights, the cold air, food, etc. that just makes it feel more like Christmas lol.
