Hello my angels,
Welcome back to Vlogmas! What an absolute delight it is to bring you along to a wonderful day with my dearest Josie. From BURNING pilates to a very indulgent, very festive mac and cheese and on to the most calming and invigorating evening of sound baths, stretching and a cold water dip!

Leonora u don’t need a thermo ur a great cook … trying to cook off the flour Josie bless her has no idea

[@michelegiannini6656]

I found Josie first but because she was so lovely I chose to look further and found you. Beautiful lady your sunshine helps remind me what a healthy happy life should look like. I’m not talking about the homes the brands etc.. I’m talking about the way you enjoy and share your love of life. You are always smiling always appreciative and happy. With so much negativity always coming at us, having genuine examples of happy woman such as you & Josie are imperative to the overall health of everyone. I personally can have a bad day and seek out your blog/vlogs and be reminded of who I wish to be. From Washington state in the USA, many blessings & thank you 🥰

[@EEN63]

The sweetest thing was after an eventful day, seeing you come home to a room full of sleepy boys! It warms my heart Marcus waited for you before going to bed! Clearly he was ready to go but waited for you! 💗💗💗 And of course, all the precious sausages resting so peacefully but then delighted for some special attention from you! Loving all the love! 🥰🥰🥰

[@helenstella2666]

No. No no no I’m sorry but your intro simply won’t do Leonora .. I’m having to watch at least 4 times before I can even get to watch your vlog 😏 I’m so mesmerised 🎄🥰 Oh you & Josie, such great humour & fun together & what a wonderful friendship. Nigel the Nutcracker 😁 I enjoyed every minute of this Leonora .. thank you 🐾 ❤️

[@tc7486]

I agree about that intro! Sometimes I just watch the intro over and over and nothing else!

[@sacha3910]

Chloe is the best teacher, she teaches killer classes with so much charm 🥰

[@julesdolce2844]

Cranberry Mac & Cheese, Josie is a genius!!! I am absolutely obsessed with that intro, my favorite Christmas introduction!! ❤🎄🎄 The sausage dogs snuggling with Mark, how precious !! It has been delightful watching your Vlogmas videos! Merry Christmas to all ….

[@clipspins]

You are so warmely dressed when you are at Josie’s. 2 sweaters… Lovely vlog and fun to watch! Thank you!

[@karenmoore7568]

You guys make lovely friends! There's absolutely nothing wrong with sausage kisses, I have lots of kitty kisses from my two cats George and Mildred, especially as Georgie is the biggest love bumble ever! Nigel is the name of Josie's nut cracker! Thanks for a lovely vlog x

[@mandyreardon2177]

I'm still in awe of your introduction to vlogmas. It is so magical and the music suits it perfectly! ❤ Reformer pilates looked such hardwork! 🥵 It was such fun to see you and Josie cooking at her house. I'm afraid i'm not a brie lover, it was however, my late mum's favourite! You were very brave to go in the cold water as far as you did!! I bet you were exhausted by the time you got home, and all you wanted to do is snuggle on the sofa with your sleeping Marcus! 🥰🥰🥰

[@dianemilligan7370]

I’ll never get tired of watching your fabulous intro!

[@elf5012]

This was the sweetest, most delightful girl time, and coming home to your sleeping sausages and fine husband. Thanks for the mac and cheese recipe.

[@angelamonson]

Leo you are the most kind person. Your home is more fabulous than others yet you are so complementary of others.

[@carolburke9153]

Although i find josie to be pretentious ... i always enjoy your videos ... keep on being the authentic you !❤

[@7ofthem]

Josie is according to my girls a ‘pick me try hard ‘ it’s all pretence

[@SongSparrow-wf2is]

love the drives through the wintry forest roads🌷

[@marciapestana3260]

Leo, your energy is out of this world, thank you for sharing your kidness, and joy with us. You have changed my perspective in live, in so so many ways. And i trully wish i could one day give a kiss to Lancelote, i adore him so so much. Big kiss ❤

[@JulietteJeantyPressler]

Hi Leonora! You should make this a monthly or bimonthly day with Josie ❤❤❤ I would love to see you guys do this more often! It’s like being a part of a day out with the girls 🥰 love you both!

[@sueburkhalter8045]

Marcus and the boys asleep together... how sweet!

[@stephf121]

Thankyou Leonora for sharing moments of your life with us.

[@salipullar544]

Your babies just make me feel so much joy inside seeing them in their little hats

[@janedaniels7645]

Great vlog! Great day but isn’t it always lovely to get home and be with your boys, including Marcus of course.

[@sheliaerwin3899]

I literally watch your intro over and over my husband who never watches youtube fell in love with your intro!!! ❤ soooo festive and inspiring

[@trudiegordon6327]

[@laurieclarkson9180]

Great to have two people making mac n cheese as it is very stressful sometimes to do all the cheese grating and constant whisking alone

[@teresacleland988]

What a lovely day!

[@sarahcampbell3012]

I have the love of sausage dogs too! Mine are lying with me on the couch whilst I watch you both. Instead of Mac and Cheese, I made poached chicken, sugar snap pea and lemon cream linguine for dinner. 😋

[@sarahcampbell3012]

Nigel!

[@skipthecultureshock5474]

Beautiful introduction!

[@5usiewongs489]

Long-time lurker- this was so lovely. You’re so bubbly and kind- no wonder you & Josie are friends. Wishing you all of the best for Vlogmas :)
