ChristmAS DAY

we quite like our little Christmas traditions round here
santa stockings and sacks opened at the end of our bed






they will miss their big sister next year
her plan is to be in NYC

into the lounge for presents from each other
under the tree


Isabella Crocheted Billy's tie
and made the little badges on it
playdoh was Arlo's favorite

helping me make pancake breakfast
the end of a tropical Cyclone meant the first rainy Christmas Day
in a long time
indoors is not so good for photos
but still managed to capture our lovely whanau
who came to share the day with us
eat amazing food
and thoroughly spoil the small people

so lovely to have  Surinder, Sara, Dee and Lennox
with us this year

the Grans











lots of cousin games together

Gran's Stockings



trying out his new Boogie Board
afternoon outing to run off some sugar









bedtime visit and some last presents
with PopMak

thanks to my lovely whanau 
for another fabulous Christmas Day
off on a little Summer Hol now
