To those that cant spend time with us this christmas

I am now away until monday.  I have no idea what type of internet access I'll have but hopefully I'll have some so I can blog at least a few times over the week.  I am looking forward to having a lovely week seeing all my family or at least most of them, eating mountains of tasty food and opening presents! :)

Now something beautiful :)

Happiness is definitely something we should feel this time of year.  Wrapped up warm enjoying the company of your closest family and friends.  There is a sadness too of the people that are no longer with us or for one reason or another are unable to spend time with us.  Spend a moment thinking of them and remembering them but dont dwell on the sadness for this is a happy time, make the most of it whilst you can and think of the happy times you've shared with those people.  I know that I shall be thinking of my cousin who's in hospital knowing that she'd be enjoying all the food and making the whole experience more enjoyable but I'll be thinking of all the happy times we've had and the ones to come :)

Hope you're having a wonderful holiday :)
