Whoah! What a weekend...am shattered and desperately need some time off to catch up on sleeps!
The meal on Friday night was AMAZING! Field mushrooms in devilled butter on toast to start, followed by thick, handcarved ham, egg & chunky chips and a warm chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream & caramel sauce...all washed down with a couple of large glasses of pinot grigio! Heaven!
On Saturday we met with our hotel to finalise bits & pieces...the rooms have been allocated for our guests, we've decided on a meal and sorted out timings of the day...so exciting but quite scary that there's now less than a year to go. I have to confess I did go into a bit of a panic last night about it all again for no particular reason...I just want it to be perfect for both us and our friends too!
We followed this up with a trip to the German Christmas Market in Birmingham with a few of our friends. Had a lovely afternoon, drank gluwein, chatted and generally enjoyed ourselves. The star of the day has got to be our friends little boy Theo - adorable! He makes me sooo broody!
Sunday was spent doing some last bits of Christmas shopping and picking up our vases for our centrepieces!
Am actually starting to feel properly Christmassy now!! 11 days to go!
And now for the week ahead...
