This is probably the best Christmas Eve we've had in a longtime! Not much stress (other than a busy morning!!), then Andy and Evie went off to the Christmas Special Steam train at Tenterden with Margie, Meg and mum. She was so excited about that, and it didn't disappoint! Antoinette and I stayed here. Antoinette had a lovely long shower and I finished 3 last minute pressies (canvases). Then we picked up dad and went over to Westwood Cross for Antoinette to spend a little cash (she spent more on other people than on herself though! She's so generous.) and then, more importantly, to go into Costa Coffee for a large hot chocolate! Unfortunately they'd run out of cream though. Still, we got a large cup for the price of a small!
Then it was home and Antoinette and I watched as many episodes of Merlin as we could before the others got back (Evie doesn't like it, so they've been stacking upon the SKY+!!).
We've tracked Santa on the NORAD site, and the girls are now happily in bed and fast asleep!
Just got the hinges to put on the canvas books and wrap them, and then we're done! the prospect of a bedtime before midnight is amazing!!! Our first for a long time!!
Oh, I must get my music in the right order for Church tomorrow too!!
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
