Okay, so I think this tag may be a little "dated" from last year or something, butttt I just wanted to do it! I never really get all that personnel or soppy so I'm trying to put myself out there a bit more at the mo. I've changed a few bits up ever so slightly!
One: What is your favourite Christmas Movie/s?
For me I much prefer some tv classics at Christmas time, I love Only Fools and Horses, Mrs Browns Boys pretty much anything like that, but if I had to pick a film I think it would be ELF or Home Alone pretty standard I know.

Two: Do you open your presents on Christmas Eve or Christmas morning?
Christmas morning at like 6 am of course!
Christmas morning at like 6 am of course!
Three: Do you have a favourite Christmas memory?
As a child, we always had a slay with lights and pretend reindeer's come by our house they would be collecting money for charity and I just remember every year waiting to hear the slays music and see the shiny lights.
Four: Favourite festive food?
Christmas dinner Duh, I love roast potatoes
Five: Favourite Christmas gift ?
Last year my partner brought me a keyring. It was a metal keyring with a print on. One side had a photo of me and my partner in Paris and on the other side it had a photo of my first baby scan photo, it reminds me every time I look at it how amazing my life is every day and how lucky I am.
Six: Favourite Christmas scent?
I love the smell of a Christmas dinner but I also love the smell of any warm, spicy candle that has a name like "spiced apple" or something. It reminds me of the Glade candles my Mum always use to burn.
Seven: Do you have any Christmas traditions?
Since forever, me and my family have all woken up in the same house at 5/6am and opened presents. Me, my sisters and our partners all sit on the floor like kids whilst my Mum makes everyone a cuppa or we open the bucks fizz and my Dad hands us our presents. We usually open one present at a time and all watch each other open every present, which yes takes ages but it is so nice seeing everyone's reaction.
Eight: What tops your tree?
If I had it my way it would be a picture of my daughter, however, its probably going to be a star or something.
Nine: As a kid what was the one (crazy, wild, extravagant) gift you always asked for?
As a child, I was incredibly blessed and had slightly crazy parents, I don't think I could possibly say one present that stood out to me as my dad always come up with the craziest gifts, last minute trips to Disney Land, the biggest barbie house, horses, you name it! Don't get me wrong we aren't spoilt now at all and as much as he taught us to enjoy life he also taught us to work hard.
Ten: What's the best part about Christmas for you?
I don't know, I'm usually not over enthusiastic about Christmas but this year is my daughter's first Christmas and I can't wait. The best part about this Christmas is that I have my daughter and I'm lucky enough to have an amazing partner and good family around me.
I thought this was a great post idea, a little more personal than something I'd typically write but I loved it! Why don't you join in with the Christmas Tag and answer these questions yourself?
I hope you've enjoyed this post and I hope your feeling festive.
