A very sweet Christmas at the Hazelnuts´

Dear Readers,

Two years ago ,I received the Hazelnut Dormouse family as a Christmas gift.
Even though I haven´t introduced it to you yet, this family has become one of my favourites since then.

Two years later, they are fully settled in Sweet Berry Valley and ready to celebrate the festive season in the comfort of their own home.
I´ve been quite busy lately so I didn´t have time to post this entry earlier in December.As I´m on holidays at the moment, I had time to make some christmassy ornaments to decorate the Hazelnuts´ home and to take some pictures of this adorable family at Christmas.

Making a wreath for the front door is one of the first Christmas activities that gets the Hazelnut family involved.

Going to the forest to pick up foliage and berries to decorate their home really gets the Christmas spirit flowing.

Mona likes to decorate her home with natural elements and scented candles which fill her living room with a wonderful forest and christmassy smell.She has to warn little Ned not to touch to candles when they are lit.

Baking is another activity that brings the Hazelnuts closer together.The children enjoy baking christmas cookies but the part that they like most is eating them.

Mona knows her children have a sweet tooth and she wants to spoil them with a special dessert for Christmas dinner. She is very proud of the Yule log she made this year.

The favourite Christmas activity at the Hazelnuts´ is the decoration of the Christmas tree.
The children were reading the Christmas cards they had received from friends and relatives when their dad knocked on the window and said from the other side :"Kids,the Christmas tree is here".

It was a cold snowy December evening but it was nice and warm inside.

The Hazelnuts not only enjoy eating sweets and cookies,but they also like to use them as Christmas tree ornaments.Well, as you can see little Ned prefers to eat candy canes instead of hanging them on the tree.

Without any doubt the Hazelnuts are going to have a very sweet Christmas!

"Ned,you´re going to have a tummy ache if you keep eating so many sweets,love".

A family photo is also a Christmas tradition at the Hazelnuts´.

Just one more picture of little Ned wearing the outfit his mum made for him to wear on Christmas Day.

He is such a sweet cute little boy! Don´t you think so?

Hope you have enjoyed today´s post.
I intend to give you a proper house tour at some stage but I wanted you to see the Hazelnuts´living room before they put their Christmas decorations away.I think it looks very festive and cosy at this time of the year.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and my best wishes for the New Year to all my Readers!
