chrissy 2012

Hi babe!

Countdown is on - not long till Paris again whoop whoop! How cool to see your folks (who have your gifts from us by the way!) soon, love that!

Here are a few photos from Christmas in our place - the girls have added some tinsel to their rooms in traditional slap-hap form but it looks like beauty to them so that's nice!

I have given in to getting a bunny rabbit, got a free hutch from church and we'll give it a go! How hard can it be?! I have some friends who wont mind giving it the spade if i get sick of it!!
Girls are with me from chrissy eve, we'll head to church for a short service, come home and revel in their gifts and then the father will pick them up for a few hours.  It's worked out really nicely, thankfully! Mum and I both agreed to go out for dinner - i worked out mostly i do all the work on christmas day and how nice to not have to do any!! Girls will eat lunch with dave i think and then we'll go swimming at the school pool and out for dinner in their new clothes at a lovely hotel.  Not much work for me!





A wreath i just made, yes out of pom poms!


Liv delighted in helping me make upside-down santa pants!



hard to get a good photo of this but at night, the chrissy tree behind the fire lights up and is really rather cool.


ah the old scrabble letters, they say so much





The girls in their recent dance outfits.

I'm having a few friends round at Kathy's place on Thurs pm for a wee bit of Thai and dessert (bday time!) and then Amy, Claire and Pip rock up to mine on Fri and we will go out for dinner (babysitter sorted!).  
24th will be people coming round for drinks - i hope!  last year when matt was here I tried to make this toblerone and baileys concoction - supposed to be a drink but i beat the cream and alcohol too long and made a smoothie type drink. people seemed to love it but had to eat it with a spoon, not a drink!

Love you, to the moon and back xx
