I come from a family with few traditions but as Christmas comes in we are jam packed with great festive traditions. One of my favourite is putting up the tree which we do whilst watching a movie... normally a Christmas Movie and eating a box of Quality Street.
We tend to keep things minimalistic, our trusty pre-lit tree has survived all 7 years at the new house and is probably needing to be replaced but its what we know and every year when it comes down the loft we anxiously await to see if it turns on once again. We changed up the bobbles this year as many of them from the previous years lost there string. And most other directions and bought in pairs or threes. And of course everything has its place.
The world just feels better when its lit by fairy lights. And though because of work I don't spend many cosy nights in the house with the room lit by the tree. There is honestly nothing better than coming in whilst its wet and windy outside to a little cosy haven.
