Advent 2015 - Day Twelve


Goodness me, don't tell me you are all dressed up as well!  Henry says in astonishment as Alex walks up.


Well naturally, Alex replies.  After all some of us have to take our responsibilities seriously and as Prince George Alexander Emmanuel, I have a lot of responsibilities.

Do you?  Henry asks.  What exactly are these responsibilities?

Well you know, important stuff.  Alex blunders...  

Oh I see....Henry nods his head wisely.  Well perhaps one of your 'important responsibilities' is opening today's Advent window.



Well of course!  Alex agrees and the boys look for number 12.


Found it!  Alex calls out excitedly.  I mean here it is.  He goes on to say in what he thinks is his 'Prince' like voice.


He tries to remain calm as a Prince might as he opens the window.


But he is finding it difficult....


Look, look, a knight!  He cries out, forgetting all about being a Little Prince.


He looks like he means business!


He certainly does Alex.  Henry says as he looks at the little knight with the fierce face.


I am going to put him down here. Alex says.


Yes.  He can go down here.


Isn't this exciting Henry?  Alex asks.



Henry looks down at Alex who is getting stuck into playing.,...forgetting all about his 'responsibilities' as  a Prince.

I think they are going to have fun playing together today.

Advent Day Twenty Three


Gosh only one more window to open tomorrow.  It is my turn to  open the 'penultimate' window today, do you want to help me?  Stevie asks.

Yes sure, that would be great.


Stevie and Alexander look for number 23.


Found it!  Stevie calls out excitedly


She opens the door carefully....


....and pulls out the little package.


Oh I wonder what this is?  She says.  It looks a bit like a little food trough.


Stevie tries to work out what the food is, while Alexander holds the little trough.




Where shall we put them?  Stevie asks.

Just down here I think.  Alex suggests.


Stevie thinks before she puts the food down.


Well there definitely seems to be plenty of food for the animals.  Alex says.


The animals will be well fed!


Stevie poses for her Christmas photo (even though she had her portrait taken the other day)


A pretty girl, dear to my heart.



Alexander poses for his Christmas photo.


Alex is a 1985 Prince Gregor.


Only one day left on the calendar now!  How quickly this month has flown by.  Only two more sleeps until Christmas Day.  All are very excited here indeed.

Introducing my Anniversary Gift.

The other day (21st December 2013) Henry found a package.


Oh, I wonder what this can be?  Sounds like there might be someone inside.  He thinks to himself.


He opens it up..

Yes I can definitely hear something inside.




Ooh, a box...this looks odd.




Knock, knock, knock....Henry knocks on the 'door'.  Anyone in there?  He calls out.


Yes, it is I?  A strange voice replies.  

Henry is a little startled.  Who is this boy in the strange suit?


Hello, who are you?  Henry asks.


I am Prince George Alexander Emmanuel.  The boy replies.  But really that is quite a mouthful and I am happy to be called George or Alex.


What you have three names and you are happy to be called either of two different names?  Henry asks.  Doesn't that get complicated?  

Well yes, it can do.  The boy replies.  But I don't mind either of those two names.  


What's with the strange velvet clothes?  Henry asks.

This is my Prince Outfit,  the boy replies.  However somewhere along my travels I lost my sash and my socks.

You lost your socks?  Henry giggles....You will fit right in at home here then!  We are always loosing ours or getting them muddled up.  Mum keeps asking us if the socks get up and walk away!



Hopefully she will make you a pair of socks?  We can always ask her.  Henry suggests.

Well only if you are sure she won't mind, the boy replies.


No, Mum won't mind, she is always making us something!  Henry reassures him.  Come on lets also find you some new clothes to change into as well.  Perhaps something a bit more Christmassy as the rest of us have Christmas gear on.  After all it isn't long now until Christmas.


Introducing my lovely new boy my husband bought me from our Wedding Anniversary.

1985 Prince Gregor (Otherwise known as George Alexander Emmanuel and waiting to see what the rest of the kids call him!)




A little while later, before he has had a chance to change, Henry introduces him to James and Emrys.
