This is what 6.00am on Christmas morning looked like at our house!! Ella had an idea that a new "Wethepeople" BMX bike might be under the Christmas tree - but seeing is believing! (Check out the expression on Abi's face - so where are my presents?)
She had high hopes for this one....
but found only a box with a doona cover and cushion in it!...
But this was the one that lit up her morning!
There were presents to share.....
...and Jody's beautiful hand made gifts - including this wonderful hamper for Rob.
..and her truly amazing felt fireplace (with toasty marshmellows)!
....green dragon roar.........
..and a beautiful morning to test out the new wheels.....
..with Josh - also the proud owner of a new BMX bike for Christmas.....
Jody, Josh, Ella and Abi went for a 5 klm ride together (Abi on scooter, Jody jogging)...the first time they have all been able to do that as a family.....but it won't be the last!
By 12.00 the rest of the Canberra (region) family arrived...and time for more present unwrapping......
..including gifts and cards from the London branch...We loved (nearly 6 year old) Eddie's card to us - which he had obviously hand written especially for us.......
We were a little unused to the English letter forms so we took a while to work out his message (maybe the lychee martinis didn't help!)............
We all agree Eddie is a legend! (and we worked out the right hand side of our card says: You are a Star man OMG!)
While the adults sat around recovering from our wonderful lunch: Joshy's roast lamb, Maxie's baked ham and my prawn salad + all the trimmings the kids went crazy on the back lawn. They started on Abi's cute new hopscotch water game.......
But ended up on the full scale water slide (+lawn sprinklers).
Such a happy day!
