Merry Times.

The last few days have gone by in a flurry of activity and excitement. The girls had a really wonderful time as did the so called, grown ups. I have so many photos that this will be a photo post with a little wordage thrown in to set the scene.

A random shot that I just love.

Christmas morning. Not quite sure at what point Rosie decided to remove her jammies but she did and her diaper. I just remember it was early, very, very early.

The diaper has been reinstated and Rose is now singing the alphabet.

Again, very early in the morning, outside in the rain. Our deck is wrecked cos we have the house painter here painting the exterior. They were filthy when they came back in. But who cares, it's Christmas and they had fun.

Rosie attacks a turkey leg. I failed to take photos of the table when it was set for dinner. It looked so lovely.

Riding a polar bear at the north pole. One of my gifts from Jacob was a new camera. We had to replace my favourite one a couple of months ago and I don't like the new one at all. I was really surprised to see a new version of my old favourite under the tree. I love it. It's the Casio Exilim 8.1. This new one is even tinier than before and so much easier and the other one was a breeze.

Little Miss Smiley Face. She is grinning from ear to ear because she is now in a booster chair and not a high chair and she is very, very proud of herself.

On Christmas Eve, Jacob took Lily to see some lights and a local news crew was there and they interviewed Lily and she was on the news. (and to think, she wasn't excited enough just because it was Christmas Eve!)

Rosie still has gifts left to open. She gave up sometime on Christmas morning and hasn't looked back at them. Lily opened all of hers and then organised them and she is now working her way through everything.

Hanging 4 stockings instead of 3 has really made a difference. Life is so good and we are so very lucky.
