Happy Christmas

If Christmas is about giving then we did pretty well.
B and Little Miss received way too many presents.
At home...





and at my sister's house.




















If Christmas is about being together as a family we did ok at that too.



Even when some of the family are animals....of the alpaca variety. A baby alpaca was even born while we were there.







































And if Christmas is about sharing food then we ticked that box, starting with our mango prawn lime and chilli salad contribution. Yum.






























We then ate a huge amount of food, delicious roast turkey, roasted vegetables, cheesy cauliflower bake and greens, with an amazing gravy. Followed by Christmas pudding with hot custard and then a helping of chocolate and peanut butter cheesecake. I was too busy eating to take any photos, sorry.


Despite all the sad memories of Mum that this time of year has brought to the surface for me we all seemed to have a really happy day indeed.


I was very pleased to capture this photo of B, as he is about to break into laughter. Something we all managed to do.


Hope you had a good one too.
