Christmas feels SO long ago, it is a little strange to be re-visiting it. I share photos from Christmas every year so I thought I'd keep up the tradition! My SD card broke half way through the day so I didn't get to photograph as much as I'd like to - hopefully these pet pictures make up for it.

We'll be spending New Years Eve eating tapas in our favourite Spanish restaurant and I know there'll be a lot of Sangria involved. This winter punch is basically Sangria for Christmas. The best
