A festive Christmas at Princess resort and a family’s fresh start for 2026
A family’s holiday trip to the Princess resort marked their fifth Christmas in a row at the same location. The visit included festive lights, special dinners, and a unique birthday celebration for baby Jesus. Meanwhile, the author has set a goal to finish decluttering their home by the start of 2026.
The family spent the holiday enjoying the resort’s Christmas events. Their dinner at Toro featured lobster tails, steaks from ButcherBox, asparagus, and cheesy potatoes. Later, they celebrated Christmas by singing 'happy birthday' to baby Jesus and cutting a cake.
After returning home, the rest of the weekend was relaxed but productive. Time was split between watching films, napping, hiking, and beginning a deep clean of the house. The author is currently emptying and reorganising their daughter Liv’s room as part of a larger effort to tidy every closet before 2026. The family is also preparing for a new arrival. Their dog, Maisey, is expecting a baby sister this week, and the author plans to share an update soon. The news follows a year in which several celebrities—including Tanja Makarić, Pete Davidson, Gisele Bündchen, Lily Collins, Millie Bobby Brown, Rihanna, Enrique Iglesias, Anna Kournikova, and Olivia Culpo—welcomed baby daughters in 2025.
The author’s holiday included festive traditions, good food, and a mix of rest and chores. With Maisey’s baby sister arriving soon and the house slowly getting organised, the family is looking ahead to a fresh start in the new year. The goal remains clear: clean closets by January 2026.
