by RachelSwirl December 28, 2020

So here it is – the final Monday of 2020 and my final #LivingArrows post for the year. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Donna (from What The Redhead Said) for hosting this wonderful linky that I’ve been part of now for oh… quite a few years. I’ll be sure to continue posting within this series throughout 2021. Despite this year being one of the most difficult that I’ve ever encountered, we’ve done our best to keep things as merry and as joyful as possible for the kids which judging by the piles of parcels which Santa delivered …

I’d …

Click here for further information and guidelines upon this linky should you wish to take part. Following what has been an incredibly difficult and draining week, Paul and I decided to blow the budget and to splash out on some serious sparkle in order to bring a little festive spirit into our lives. So without further ado, allow me to introduce you to ‘John Deer’ our rocking new reindeer, which along with our brand new 7ft 6 Christmas tree has totally transformed our house. “It’s …
