Christmas Day Games

The kids all got lots of bubble blowing paraphanalia so we took advantage of the last of the sunshine and spent the afternoon hanging out in the back yard blowing lots and lots of bubbles. We also played football, tether ball, t-ball, table tennis, and ten-pin bowling.


Merry Christmas Alex

Now that Alex can read his own name, it didn't take him long to sort through the presents and realise that the biggest box belonged to him. He got a new Hot Wheels track and various new cars and Hot Wheels accessories. Who says boys don't like to accessorise?


Ella Gets A Bike

Merry Christmas Ella. She seemed more impressed with the bike helmet which was adorned with Igglepiggle and Upsy Daisy - characters from In The Night Garden, a favourite tv show.


Before Unwrapping Began

This picture was taken early in the day, before the unwrapping carnage began. Charlotte took a little while to realise how this whole Christmas malarky works, but eventually she realised all she needed to do was pick up a present, take it to Daddy and he would reveal the treasures beneath the paper. A Christmas miracle.
