Look at the Christmas tree and all the presents already under it…! Which one will be yours?
Outside you see the snow and cold pass by while you sit, warm and watching your favourite family show.
Having a big family dinner - all dressed up (you AND table) with lots of warm food and company is the best too - sitting at the table inside - all together- makes it easier to connect and have real conversations - remember to avoid politics and religion!!
And yes… there is something to the classic wintery, Christmassy scenes you see in movies… I miss it!
But I have also discovered that my love for Christmas really lies within me and no Summer can stop that!
So we recreate as much as we can and the rest… well, it gets replaced with other awesome stuff, like BBQ’s with friends, hanging on the beach making sure you don’t get burnt, we’re still eating ‘til we no longer can but it’s just more cold foods like salads, fruit and iceblocks (nothing wrong with those!).
We have water fights to cool down and when we can, we jump in the pool to cool off some more…
You make sure you wear your jandals everywhere as otherwise you will burn your feet and you generally just wear summer gear…
It is SO amazing here, living in New Zealand, I love it
And I would still LOVE to have one more WINTER Christmas with snow and all….
