Christmas Day

Merry Christmas! After firstly being woken by the tropical rainforest that apparently lives outside my parents house (I don't remember the parrots when I used to live here...) and then Megan jumping on me at 7am, it was time for presents. Megan did politely point out though that she had been up since 5am and we were lucky that she waited until 7am to shake her reindeer bells and wake everyone else up. After checking out Santa sacks it was then time for presents under the tree.


After presents it was time to prepare our Christmas lunch. As we bypassed the Stamford this year, we decided to create a ''money can't buy" lunch menu. Everyone pitched in and we had a great lunch... with many leftovers.

Mum created a great table setting - our theme this year was silver, blue and white (Lisa - you should take some notes). After lunch it was time for a swim and a power nap. With our batteries recharged we headed next door to check out what Santa had left Connor and Caitlin. After presents, a neighbourhood 'friendly' game of Scattegories was played while Caitlin and I watched DVD's. And now it is time to rest before sales tomorrow!
