What I want for Christmas. Well it’s a question one should not ask me because I have two lists at the moment. I have the expensive one and the so-so Christmas list. When I say expensive I mean really expensive by my standards. For some this might not be expensive at all but it is for me. We usually want so much for Christmas that sometimes we forget the true spirit and reason for the celebration. Thanking God for sending his son, to save us from the evils of the world.
Now that we’ve established how we should thank first. let’s see what’s on my expensive Christmas list. I mean what I am dreaming to get, a girl can dream right? without dreams what are we?
What I want for Christmas
- Car – I told you it was an expensive list. Now that I am serious about driving and will be doing my practical test soon I need to buy a car. Even a small car will do, my parents have promised to help me pay towards it.
- Camera – I need to improve my blog pictures. Don’t get me wrong I love my iPhone 6 Plus and it takes good pictures. But now I am aiming for better resolution and just take the blog to the best level.
- New Bed Frame – you know I was recently sent an amazing mattress from Leesa. This kind of mattress requires an equally amazing bed frame. Ok maybe not but I just need a new bed frame as I am tired of my old divan bed.
- New smart phone – normally I would say new iPhone but right now I am open to all. Whilst in South Africa my iPhone suffered a screen crack my first in years. So instead of just having it fixed which is costing ridiculous amount I just need a new phone.
- Trip to Hawaii – just because 2017 is a year of staycations doesn’t mean I have abandoned my travel abroad dreams. I told my friends that for my 30th I have three places I want to go: Hawaii, Bali or Vegas.
Now for the not so expensive Christmas list
- Good health for my family, I have an elderly grandmother who it would mean the world to me if her health stayed on point.
- Happiness for my family, I don’t ask for much just that I have a healthy and happy family.
Besides the air we breath is already free so, world peace, health and happiness is all about me done.
What do you think of what I want for Christmas? What’s on your list?

Louise Smith says
Love your Christmas wishlist <3 I got my Christmas wish a little early this year. All I wanted was for my 3 year old to start sleeping at night as he really hadn't since bonfire night 2015 and it's been a hard year with him being so tired and irritable in the day. But last week things started to get better and we've had lots of good night sleeps since! I'm now asking that it continues in to the next year 😉 lol
Louise x
Anosa says
Awww bless you love, glad his sleeping through the night and I pray it continues

Heather - Heartfully Heather says
I need a new bed frame, as ours is on the floor and a trip to Hawaii too! But my husband doesn’t fly, so that’s kind of hard to do! LOL!
Anosa says
Awww bless him, can he cruise though?
Heather - Heartfully Heather says
He’d actually love to go on a cruise. He’s never been. Its a bucket list thing for him. I’ve been on 2 and love to cruise!
Anosa says
Awww bless him, hope he manages to tick that one off on his travel bucketlist
Isabella Wong (lifeasapetite) says
There’s is definitely nothing wrong with dreaming, hopefully Santa will help towards realising your dreams:) your soso ones are just as important, health and happiness for your loved ones are the most important gifts 🙂 for those who believe in Jesus, I’m also with you with remembering the spirit of Christmas though 🙂 x
Anosa says
Thanks Isabella, I hope Santa heard me lol
Echo (The Mad Mommy) says
Ohh, I like that bed frame! We could definitely use a new one. This year, when people ask me what I want, I am saying, “A mortgage payment”, Hahaha!
Anosa says
Hahahaha, I would say that too if I had one.
lianne says
I would like a rose gold watch and some new makeup 🙂

Stephanie Merry says
A new car would be on my list as well – not sure that’ll happen though! x

Elizabeth says
That is a really expensive Christmas list, but yea, I’d be happy with any of those new items too, lol! A trip to Hawaii would be brilliant.
Anosa says
I know right, I thought why not it put it out there, never know what the heavens might have in store for me.
Jeanine @ sixtimemommy.com says
All sounds really great! I want an iPad mini. My normal Ipad’s screen is shattered so I want something smaller for work use. I just got 2 new cameras, so its about all I want this year!
Anosa says
Oh how nice, I have a tablet that I hardly use and just got me a camera so I think I am all sorted now
Melissa Zia says
Great Christmas wishlist, I really want to get a new camera very soon
Anosa says
thanks Melissa, hope you get one
jigsawparenting says
I agree I need a new camera I did treat myself after reading some great reviews but was left rather disappointed so I am not rushing into buying another just yet
Anosa says
Oh dear what a shame, hope the next one will be better
Evelina says
I was so busy recently that I haven’t started thinking about Christmas wishes. This year I would want happiness and overall success for myself and my family. Hope at least one of your wishes will come true.
Anosa says
Thanks Evelina, I made one of my wishes come true I bought me a camera lol
london_unattached says
I’m really happy with my phone and camera now. I opted for a Huawei this time – instead of a Samsung. That was a lucky escape. Hope you get something good from your wishlist
Anosa says
Thanks I want to try the Huawei phoned I am hearing good things only.
Melanie Edjourian says
Me too I would love anew camera but I don’t know what to get. There are so many on the market I don’t know what would be the best for me.
Anosa says
I just managed to buy me yesterday it’s a Canon PowerShot SX530 HS and it’s awesome (so far)
Melanie Edjourian says
I was looking at some kind of Panasonic but there are so many to choose from. I will look yours up too now, thanks x
Anosa says
For some reason I neevr look at Panasonic except for home security or TVs lol but yeah check out the Canon
clairecly says
I would love a new tablet, just an inexpensive one as my old tablet died a few months ago and I’ve missed having one.
Anosa says
Awww there are some nice deals at the moment so hopefully you can get one
Jess | The Indigo Hours says
Health and happiness are such lovely things to wish for! I’d love a new camera, too, but I think I’m going to be saving up for one 🙂
Anosa says
Thanks Jess, if we have our health and happiness then we can wish for other things
Helen Costello says
Oh we are so desperate for a new bed frame! Ours is so old fashioned now but we keep pushing it down the shopping list. I daren’t write a complete list – it would go on for days!
Anosa says
Hahaha same here but for now I had to put these out there lol
Jo Wiggins says
I’d love a new camera and new laptop. But ultimately I’m just happy and excited that it’s my first Christmas as a Mum x
Anosa says
Aww I bet it will be awesome first Christmas as a mum 🙂

Now that is a gorgeous bed frame! Looks a little similar to my white one from IKEA! And I totally agree with the latter two. x
