Christmas 2013

Christmas was at our house again this year. The weather was nice and mild which was a nice change to the recent hot spell. As always under the tree was full of presents...

We all lined up for our annual photos. We all decided to match Janelle in this one as she took her eye patch off for a while but couldn't open her eye so we squinted as well... 

And we had our silly photos...

After all our present opening was over the rest of the family arrived. Mum and Dad J loved their Singapore holiday photo album I scapbooked them... 

All the ladies (and Ethan)

We all enjoyed a lovely selection of food for lunch... 

Followed by dessert...

Some play time...

And in house entertainment...

How many sets of glasses does one need Nick?!

Peter decided to open the spa which we haven't used for a few months and was horrified to discover 2 million ants had decided to call it home!... 

Nathan came over for a visit later in the day ...

It was a lovely day and over so  quickly!

We had a few little guests come and stay with us over Christmas and the following days. This little man Sonic has a bad case of small dog syndrome in lots of areas of his life. At our house he makes up for it by sitting on anything high and was sprung twice making his little self comfortable on tables...

We also had 2 extra budgies - Dad's mate..

And Lisa and Toby's Bluey...

We didn't do much for the few days after Christmas (apart from try and eradicate the ants) - Janelle got keen and mastered this yoga pose on the front cover of my magazine...

And nothing to do with Christmas but they look Christmasy - love the way our cherry tomatoes grew...
