So you want to build a snowman

Day 1 of advent and J was up for about 2 minutes before his chocolate was eaten from the advent calendar. After dropping the children off at school I spent the first part of my morning at church with the Year 2 kids on a visit to learn about Christingles and to help them make them. The children were lovely and so well behaved, particularly when all 58 were sat with lit candles.

I put my feet up for the afternoon and multitasked knitting a donkey and finishing my book before book group this evening.

I had a little time for a wander round the village after dropping J off at cubs to look at the first windows that have been lit up in the Saltaire Living Advent Calendar. There were quite a few this evening, with the Frozen theme being particularly popular. Looking forward to seeing more over the next few weeks. Lovelupins was wandering around looking at the windows too before we met in the pub for a lovely evening comparing window photos and discussing the book among other things.
