Tagged for Christmas
Allyson over at Autism - A Blog on the Spectrum has tagged me for Christmas. So here is my chance to share a bit more about myself and what I love about the festive season! I also tag a few of my other blogging friends to share a little about themselves and Christmas:

So ladies, it you can find some time over the coming days - consider yourselves tagged for Christmas, and I look forward to reading your answers. (Please then choose 3 or 4 friends to pass along to.)
“When people say ‘Christmas’ you immediately think…”
Family gatherings, carols by candlelight, fairy lights, and lots of yummy treats to enjoy. I also think of happy time spent with the children watching Christmas lights, and enjoying the ‘magic’ of the season.
“Favourite Christmas memory…”
As a child, sitting by the Christmas Tree on Christmas Eve - basking in the joy of the occasion, watching candles flicker, and feeling like there was ‘magic’ in the air.
“Favourite Christmas song/carol…”
O Holy Night….. followed by any lovely renditions of the traditionals…
“Favourite Christmas movie…”
Definitely the “Polar Express” - the ‘magic’ of Christmas, ‘belief’ and learning to be the best we can really shines through in this lovely childrens movie - and the kids love it too!!
“Favourite Christmas character…”
I love Christmas angels (are these characters? - I think so!) - they are so beautiful and delicate and they have so much meaning to them, whilst still being fun.
“Favourite Christmas ornament/object…”
A Christmas Angel - could it be anything else?
“Plans for this Christmas…”
To spend some relaxing time with my beautiful family, enjoying the delights of the season, and reflecting on all the wonderful things we are so blessed with.
“Is Christmas your favourite holiday?”
Yes - by far it is the most magical - Christmas time allows us all to be children again!!!

I had forgotten about Oh Holy Night, I love that song.

Hmm, you’ve timed that well [I do the meme things over the weekend when there is theoretically more time!]
I like your loose definition of ‘character’! I’d better go and put my thinking cap on then.
Best wishes

Fun questions! I LOVE the Polar Express too. I love the “Hot Chocolate” song and end up singing it all night after we watch it.

Joy - We love the “Hot Chocolate” song too!!! We tend to sing it over and over all through the Christmas period! (It kind of has that catchy tune!)
