Christmas with the Kemps 2021

 Good morning my lovely blogging friends.  I got up this morning to find a decent covering of snow and it's quite fitting as I can at last make a start on the big reveal.  We aren't completely finished as we still have the conservatory to Christmasify but today is the turn of the living room/diner. I will do some close up shots of different bits over the weekend. But first let me tell you about yesterday. Tony and I had been invited over to our friends for lunch and oh boy what a lovely lunch we had.  We started with the most delicious homemade soup followed by sweet potato topped cottage pie and veggies. Then we spent the afternoon playing Rummikub finishing off the afternoon with coffee and dessert. They were such good company and set the mood nicely for Christmas.

We have swags covered in fairy lights over every window and when we turn on the fairy lights it looks magical

I adore the little Santa suit cutlery holders.. Christmas patterned cutlery of course and I'll try and take a close up of it over the weekend

Today's Christmas jumper is my Rudolf one complete with jingly bells

And of course the scarf that I showed you earlier in the week. It's much thicker and not actually shiny as the photo implies

And I love a bit of Christmas Mambo so here's a Christmas one for you Joy... :-)     Billy May - Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer Mambo - YouTube
