Shall I do something different for 2019?
Nah!
Why change when you're having fun?!
So here we go
My 1st Advent Photo for this year.
I wasn't going to bother with a calendar, but then I thought ..... actually I like choosing a calendar and opening a door every day so this year I found this big free-standing one. It's a village scene with the 3 Kings and their camels coming in on the right and the shepherds approaching on the left but a very English speaking HOTEL and CAFE in the middle!
Behind door number 1, in an upstairs window is a person carrying a candle on their way to bed.
Happy December everyone!
Back Tomorrow
Sue
The first day of winter, hopefully there will be snow along the way. Happy December Sue.
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely calendar! I look forward to see your daily Christmas photos!
ReplyDeleteLove the Advent Calendar Sue - not sure where I would put it but I really would rather like one. Yes, December is here and Christmas is almost upon us - I love the time of year but it does always stir up memories doesn't it. Our grandchildren (and in my case great grandchildren help though).
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely calendar, Sue. A good mixture of trad and modern there.

Interesting twist on the theme indeed. I have one every year too, Mum always bought one for me, so I am continuing to do so now. I have quite a collection! Another reminder that Winter will soon be upon us, if the weather wasn't enough anyway!
ReplyDeleteI love your calendar Sue. My daughter always buys me a calendar i.can remember when there was almost everyday had something happening, but since I have moved I am not so activite but the calendar still reminds me when I have had a phone call or I must ring somebody. I still put something on it if I have something nice has happened, like this morning it's a beautiful sunny day here.

How very lovely your advent calendar is Sue. I have after many years without treated us to a Wrendale Christmas Cottage calendar. Door one has revealed a hanging dried orange slice! x
ReplyDeleteThis is a really lovely Advent Calendar! I usually open one each year too but usually use one I have used other years :)
ReplyDeleteThat lovely scene has cheered me up. I was looking at advent calendars the other day and they all seemed to be brash cartoon character things. When I was a child they were things of wonder, beautifully illustrated winter scenes drenched in glitter or nativity scenes, equally encrusted. I know that we are not supposed to use glitter now as it is bad for the environment, but I do miss the beauty of the imaginative illustrations.
ReplyDeleteA lovely blogging tradition!!!!! Oh yes, keep it up!!!
