This year was the first year my side of the family had all been together since my Dad died seven years ago so, it was all about the cousins. All the boys bunked down in the lounge room and thought the fish was the place to hang their stockings - it's over the fireplace after all.
The girls (slightly outnumbered) and sleeping in the study found their own artwork for their stockings.
Then it was time for a bit of cousin chaos, with Granma thrown into the mix.
Christmas day saw the new slip and slide put to use - Rory insisted on using it as a bubbler much to everyone's disgust!
Here is the table(s) laid with care :)
Boxing Day saw three cousins meet one of their life saving heroes. That's Deano folks. The small Sydney cousin refused to be part of this photo, he couldn't understand the star attraction, Bondi is his local beach. And the biggest cousin had gone to work (as a lifesaver).
And that's it - bright colours, happy smiles and home again to the peace and quiet.
Hope you all had a fabulous festive day too.
Love the photo pictorial :-)
