Christmas at home

Sunday, 6 January 2013

I can't quite believe it's already January. I feel like this year's Christmas break definitely went way too fast. I had a lovely week at home, mainly hanging out with friends and family, and eating and drinking too much as per usual. (Bring on the January detox!). I rang in the New Year rather quietly at home with Aled due to being rather ill. We wanted to watch the fireworks but standing in the cold and rain for a few hours didn't really seem like the best idea! Instead we watched a few films, had some drinks (beer for Aled, lemsip for me!) and had a very tame bedtime of 12:05am.  

I am a bit of a perfectionist with my photos, and I was actually really disappointed with the ones I took over Christmas. I love photography and taking photos but I definitely class myself as a very amateur photographer and would like to improve my skills. One of my resolutions for 2013 will be to practice with camera and tripod more. I know there are so many functions I have yet to learn how to properly use! 

Even though I wasn't the happiest with my photos here are a few I did like....
(absolutely starving now after looking back at my Christmas dinner!)

The most wonderful time of the year

Friday, 21 December 2012

I bloody love Christmas. I'm off back home tonight and cannot wait to spend two weeks with my beloved family and friends. I'm slightly like a giddy child when it comes to this time of year. As we were away in Vancouver for Christmas last year, this Christmas seems a little more special.

London looks so festive at the moment and sadly I have only taken my camera out a handful of times. Nevertheless here a few festive photos from the past month or so.


 I'm looking forward to my Dad's roast dinner and seeing people open the presents I have got for them. I was actually quite organised this year and finished most of my Christmas shopping in the first few weeks of December. I'm definitely not a last minute sort of person!

I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!
