A Rock and Roll Christmas!



We had a smashing start to putting up our Christmas decorations this weekend.

Andy was moving the television when it fell off the stand and smashed on the floor. He quipped that smashing a television set is very rock and roll, hence the title of this post!

We now have a small spare television installed and will have to hit the January sales. Andy's been after a flat screen television for ages... Hmm. Did the television jump or was it pushed?!

We were both pretty shaken actually. Thank goodness the boys weren't anywhere near it.

Anyway, we finally put up our decorations. This is the first year since Presley could move by himself that we have dared have a full size Christmas tree. We let the boys decorate it and (surprise surprise) it looks like it has been decorated by toddlers! Presley and Cash were so excited. A little too excited perhaps. I have already threatened to take it down if they play with the tree decorations!

I posted about our decorations last year, so here are some photographs of this year's new additions.











If you fancy taking a look at some more decorations - or if you want to show yours off - the lovely Liz at Violetposy is hosting her annual tour.

  3. My daughter pulled our telly off the stand when she was about 3, she had climbed up onto the tv cabinet and managed to pull it off. Luckily she was unhurt, but the telly was scrapped, however we claimed on the house insurance - can you do the same perhaps?

  11. Sorry to hear about the telly, but like you say, hopefully you can get a good deal in the January sales.

    Your decoration photos are fab! And those little Santa dolls are brilliant, although I bet my toddler would want to play with them all the time. :)

  15. May as well go 3D with the TV. It will save you money in the long run as you won't need to have another accident in a year or two!

  16. Huge apologies for being so slack with my replies. I'm just winding down for Christmas now and will try harder in the new year.

    Still no new television, but the sales are just around the corner.

    The Russian Santas are from Yellowmoon.org.uk and are now in the sale. Typical!

    Merry Christmas x
