‘Tis the season to be … enjoying local Christmas lights 🧑🏻‍🎄. Here’s a few close to home that we walked to see tonight.

The street was busy with families, lots of little boys and girls oohing and aahing at the pretty lights, the visiting Santa Claus and the snow machine pumping out snowflakes – even though the temperature was about 30C (about 85F)

All these photos were taken with my iPhone 6 and the hardest part has been choosing which ones to share with you. I go crazy clicking away knowing I can delete, delete, delete when I scroll through them later 😊

I’m with my nephew and his family this Christmas and we are now home watching Carols by Candlelight- a Christmas Eve tradition. The Christmas tree is twinkling in the corner – and we must have been good because there’s loads of presents underneath it.

As we come to the close of what has been a very difficult year all around the world – and whether you celebrate this festive season or not I wish you joy, happiness – and love and light in your life.
