‘Around The World’ Christmas Celebration! – Photo Diary

Hi all!

On Christmas Eve, my family and I got together for our annual festive celebration. Every single year we dress up according to a new theme, play games, eat lots of delicious food and open our gifts at midnight. It is my absolute favourite time. This year’s theme was ‘Around the World.’ We had to pick a random country out of a hat and wear a costume related to that place. You could be as creative as you wanted. The best part was, nobody knew what the other person got so it was a big surprise on the evening. I thought I would share with you all the photos taken that night, courtesy of my sister. As you can see below, I picked France so I came as a mime. Enjoy!

  1. This looks like every bit the very fun Christmas party! Loved everyone’s costumes and they all are so thoughtful 😊 Your sister’s makeup is amazing and so detailed – she can do my makeup anytime 😃 Haha, that group photo in the end is hilarious, and one big happy family too. I’m guessing your family have quite a few of these photos 😃 Hope you are having a great holiday season and see you soon my wonderful friend xxx
