Our Christmas tree, 2014
I have had another busy week at work, thankfully I had a little time to decorate the tree with Valentina... I completed my shopping, now baking and wrapping. I am thinking of begging someone else to do the wrapping as I don't have a fondness for it, I am usually wrapping on Christmas eve. I might actually have it all done by this weekend, that would be great, then I can just relax and enjoy my time off.
I read a couple of blogs that were writing about their goals for 2015, which has inspired me to think about the goals I want to set for myself. I don't care much for New Year's resolutions as I think the day we decided to change a behavior or do something good for ourselves is the right day for us. I also know from past experience that there are going to be many bumps on the road to my goals but it is the road I want to travel, so I will deal with the bumps as they show up.
I wanted to also take a moment to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas or any holiday you may observe... I wish you all much joy and happiness. I have been deeply touched by many of you over the last year as I dealt with my world being turned upside down, you reached out and gave me a little hope that one day it wouldn't be so difficult.
I won't be writing again until after Christmas, I want to spend as much time as I can with Valentina making memories, I am excited to see the look on her face when she opens her gifts. I never spend a lot of money but she is one of the most grateful little girls and this year I was able to get a few items she had been hoping for. . . so I know she will be a little more excited this year.
My tree turned out beautiful after a small mishap... the first time we decorated, it fell over... it's back up though and all redecorated, I will share more of them on my media when Valentina is unwrapping her gifts. I will be back after Christmas but I will be checking in with you all when I can before that...

I wish maim and family a very happy Christmas and New year too....

I wish you the very best and hope you have such beautiful memories with Valentina. What a beautiful picture. I am the same with wrapping but fortunately I pay the people in the shopping centres to wrap mine! (I feel so lazy)
ReplyDeleteWonderful Tree!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Launna <3 ,i wish you and Valentina a great Time together!
much love from Vienna
Merry Christmas :)
ReplyDeleteWow!! So beautiful tree dear!!! I wish a Merry Christmas with Valentina and all your family!
ReplyDeleteXOXO!
I love christmas! Nice tree :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful Christmas tree, really love the way you decorated it!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and your family :)
See you Launna xx
Merry Christmas, Launna! Thank you for becoming my friend in 2014, and looking forward to 2015!
ReplyDeleteIt's the time of the year again, huh? Busy busy busy. I used to love wrapping gifts but now I don't know what happened. I seem to lost my interest. Haha. Hope you enjoy your holiday with your loved ones, Launna. Thanks for being a part of my 2014! Here's to more blogging success and wonderful sharing of friendship to us! :)
ReplyDeleteMerry christmas to you too dear
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you too Launna ! May God bless you and grant you every thing you desire for.
ReplyDeleteI find gift wrapping to be a difficult task too as I am very precise about tucking in every bit neatly. I usually set aside more time than I need then I feel better that I completed the task within the time limit.
merry christmas!!! wish u a blissful year ahead
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely week ahead
Stay in touch
xoxo
P.s New post in my blog
Love the tree! I will confess..I've lost one gift card already in my Christmas weekend of busy work. Oh..the stress. So glad you and Valentina are having a wonderful time getting ready for the holdiay!
ReplyDeleteOh no! Sorry about the tree..but it's good that it's now up..and looking beautifully decorated!
ReplyDeleteValentina sounds like such a sweet daughter :)
Ha ha for me, wrapping's the best part! Of course, I don't always have the time, so I end up hurriedly wrapping things, but it's good practice, I guess.
Wishing you a very merry Christmas and a blessed New Year! ❤
much love,

Hi Launna. I’m not much for New Year’s resolutions but I do try to set goals for the year. However, can’t say I have a very good track record for completing those goals! Still I try, the beginning of a new year always seems hopeful. Pretty Christmas tree and decorations! Love your quote about cherishing. Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to you, Valentina, and your family!
ReplyDeleteObrigada, Launna! *.*
ReplyDeleteSua árvore ficou linda! Também não ligo muito para metas de Ano Novo... O que importa é ser positivo em todos os dias do ano!
Ótimo domingo!
Beijo! ^^
Your tree looks lovely. I'm sorry it fell over, but I hope you were able to find the humor in the situation. (You know me!)
ReplyDeleteI wish you and your family your best most magical Christmas ever, and all the best in the new year.
Merry Christmas Launna and Valentina! I hope 2015 will be filled with everything wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI love how you decorated your tree!! Merry Christmas in advance!!

It sounds like you had such a nice time with Valentina and sorry about the tree falling over after you already decorated it! Love how you added the colored lights and the ribbon, it's so bright and cheery. I hope you had a nice Christmas too and I know what you mean about New Year's Resolutions...I think it's good to have goals but it really does need to be the right timing for them, not necessarily the beginning of the year, but I have to admit I'm getting inspired by bloggers to start making a list of mine. :)
