BLOGMAS DAY THIRTEEN: CHRISTMAS TRADITIONS & NEW YEARS ASPIRATIONS!

Heya guys, so for today's post, there's going to be two posts in one as on day eleven my post didn't upload. I hope you enjoy!

Christmas Traditions

CHRISTMAS EVE: 

On Christmas Eve I don't really do much, my mum's usually working s me and my sister will most probably go to my grandparents. Whilst we're there we'll spend the day baking mince pies and sausage rolls with the rest of my family and watching Christmas films or listening to Christmas music - so fun! At about 6 o'clock once my Grandad has gone to work and everyone else has gone home, me, my sister and my grandma walk into town and meet my mum when she has finished work. When we've met up with her, we all go for a hot chocolate in Costa! We then head home, hang up our sacks, leave out some carrots and milk for the reindeers and cherry and cookies for Father Christmas then jump into bed uncharacteristically early! I stay awake until about one ish though as I'm always over excited for Christmas - who isn't?!

CHRISTMAS DAY:

Each year, Christmas is held at a different member of the family's house - last year we hosted Christmas Day (we being me, my sister and my mum) so this year my grandparents are hosting it! I wake up at 6 am, probably earlier then me and my sister go and wake up my mum. We then go sit on my mums bed with our sacks from Santa and open them!

After we've done this we all go downstairs and open our presents from one and other. We then have breakfast and watch a film or Frasier or something like that. We'll then tidy everything up and get ready to go out! Once we're all ready we'll head off!

At my Grandparents house once everyone has arrived, we start opening presents! Then we'll have our Christmas dinner and settle down to play games whilst watching Christmas films and TV! After the Doctor Who Christmas Special has finished everyone goes home to settle down there. Once home we'll watch more Christmas TV, look through our presents and stuff our faces!

So that's my Christmas traditions, what's yours? Tell us in the comments!

New Year's Aspirations 

For next year I don't have many resolutions or aspirations, mainly I want to do well in my GCSE's and I want to make this blog bigger! I would also like to be happier and to have a more positive outlook on life!

So I really don't have many aspirations, but those are the ones I have. What are yours?

Thanks for reading!
