I enjoyed it, too! I told my girls it was boxing day....and they got ready to duke it out! Had to explain it wasn't the sport boxing, lol! I told them we had some serious shopping in the boutique to do today and they got all excited! They love to help me pick out supplies!

We have two traditions on Boxing Day; seeing family and going for a walk.

We went to my husband's Aunt and Uncle's house and went for a 2 hour walk (avoiding the heavy rain). We then went to his cousin's house for an afternoon snack, and then on to my cousin's house where I also got to see my Aunt and Uncle.

Now I'm about to the do the other UK Boxing Day tradition, sale shopping. But I'm doing mine here and not in the shops.

You can get more of me on Twitter or on my main blog.

Boxing Day has always intrigued me so it's interesting to hear from people who actually celebrate it! Very cool!
