Geoff over at Tangental has offered out a challenge to choose a Christmas card that we would send out using a favourite picture.
I too have gone with the collage idea, incorporating some of the things that mean Christmas to me. You won’t be surprised to see my Christmas tree or even some homemade mince pies, but I had to put my Christmas gravy boat in there as well! Of course, Christmas is also about children, and in keeping with being a cool mum (ahem, well I think I am), there is a selfie of me and Miss Hap with our Christmas hats on (Grump is a bit of a Grinch at Christmas so I left him off)!!!! However, I had to include the dog! Look at beautiful little Roxy with her pretty silver bow.
Thanks for the idea Geoff!
I can’t help chuckling at pretty Rosie, the Christmas doggie ππ. Well done!

And I can see presents under the tree, Judy. I’m guessing mine is there ready for Santa to collect? π
Toby has a Santa that sits on his back. I’m pleased to say that it has not been torn to bits….yet!

I hope you have been good boy Hugh, or you won’t get a prezzie!
Poor Toby! I know Roxy would have attacked it. She savaged the Christmas hat we got for her a couple of years ago! π

Hello, and thanks for stopping by. I am Judy, in my (very) early fifties and decided that life definitely gets more interesting as it goes on! I am a wife and a mum and have just finished University as a Registered Nurse, after having worked as an Associate Practitioner in the NHS. I am also a poet and the author of my debut book, 'Rhymes of the Times.' I love to laugh, and I love rhyming words too, so I joined the two together, and my book was born. I am currently working on another book in the series also. I am a prolific blogger and enjoy writing funny stories, anecdotes, and anything really that takes my fancy.
