First sunday in advent

It's been a very long time since I last posted anything on my blogg. I have had major trouble with my computer...and since having it fixed..I just dont seem able to upload any pictures..or rather it takes such a long time. So motivation has unfortunatley been lacking :( However With christmas just around the corner my inspiration is on top form..and so is my motivation..so I'll give this blogging lark another go.

In Norway it is tradition to Have a advent candles which consists of four candles, one to be lit on each of the sundays in advent. Traditionaly the candles are purple, however I fancy'd trying white this year..Although James was a bit disapointed. So yesterday being the first sunday in advent..we lit the first candle.

I have started to potter around the house, slowly but surley getting everything ready for christmas. The kids are excited to be reunited with our christmas ornaments and other decorations.
And these wonderful nostalgic little boy and girl are one of my favorite ornaments.

they realy are lovely, and festive.

How are your christmas preps coming along??
