You know how some people are just obsessed with Christmas? I was never really one of those people.
But I’m realising as time goes on that maybe this was more situational than anything.
When I lived in Canada, I absolutely LOVED Christmas.
I loved the snow, I loved the hot chocolate, I loved the bad Christmas movies on Netflix.
And when walking down the street in Warwick, looking at the trees done up, I’m thoroughly enjoying myself.
So maybe when I was growing up in Brisbane, I didn’t love Christmas because it was honestly…just not that Christmassy.
Maybe the heat also just makes me a grumpy person, who knows?
But it brings me great joy to see the Christmas spirit in our region. I love seeing photos from everyone’s Christmas parties and encourage absolutely everyone to send in their Christmas photos for us to feature.
I’m still not over the dog done up in Christmas attire at the Allora bush markets. Please send me pictures of your dogs in Christmas outfits.
After seeing the photos we’ve featured this week from the Christmas farm, you best believe I’m planning a trip.
I will also absolutely be playing Christmas Tree Farm by Taylor Swift the entire drive. Sorry to whoever I drag along with me.
I know it’s been a tough year (or two or three) for everyone. But it’s very evident to me that this region has a special kind of spirit that you can’t find just anywhere else. We have a special community and I feel very lucky to be part of it.
