Anyway, here are my highlights from December
1st:
On the first my auntie had arranged a photo shoot for most of the family,
My Mum, my sister, my Nana, my auntie and two of my uncles (my dad was at work)

We went into lush and got everything I needed for a haul post as part of blogmas (you can find that post here if you’re interested in seeing what I picked up)
They were super helpful in Lush that day, as soon as I went in they asked if I needed help and then they got me a basket and they looked through my list with me and then helped me find and get everything I needed
They were super nice and helpful
We also went into Lakeland to pick up a Christmas present I had seen there online for my sister

13th:
On the 13th we went to the hairdressers and ended up spending most of day there as there were 4 of us having our hair done haha
I decided to go from blonde highlights all over to light brown highlights all over, I wanted something that wouldn’t be as harsh on my hair
I really love how it turned out

It was pretty good, if you want to know more about what I thought about the movie I yet again have a blog post up all about this day
Then we went to Tesco as we fancied something sweet but we didn’t end up getting anything
After Tesco we then went to the gym
We then finally went back to Tesco as Tamanna saw some flower things for her Mum
My Mum then picked us up and took Tamanna home
I was going to go to Pets At Home but it closed early and I forgot about this as I kept forgetting it was Saturday haha

We then had takeaway for tea, like every year

Later we got ready to go to my Nana and Grandad's
I got a dark chocolate chocolate orange from them to open, they gave us money but wanted to get us something to open, plus my Nana knew I wanted to try the dark chocolate chocolate orange
My Grandad gave me some binoculars he found with a digital camera in them, not as a Christmas present, just because he knows I love cameras
