Happy Christmas

The day didn't start too early and despite the fact that, Pip is full of a nasty cold and teething, we actually made it through till 7am before she woke proper.  This is her first real experience of Christmas, since last year she was barely two days old and it was lovely watching her unwrap her present from St Nicholas:

"What can this be?"

" Need to take a closer peek, help please mummy"

A Sunday Bunny with his own bible, just right for keeping me entertained in church.

Benedict woke an hour later than Pip and here he is opening his stocking.

The house was fairly peaceful at this point as he hadn't realised there were other presents under the tree!!

After a breakfast of scrambled egg, toast and fruit and for some chocolate!!  The present unwrapping began in earnest.  Pip still found the whole experience slightly bemusing:

"Another thing to explore?"

"It sure looks fun though!"

" These stacking bowls are great Nanna and Grandad thanks very much"

Benedict playing with the Stylophone that Sara bought, James May would've been proud!

Sara and Dad tucking into the Christmas meal: roast potatoes and parsnips, Brussels sprouts, carrot and swede, cashew nut roast with sage and onion stuffing and vegetable gravy.

The Head Chef having a well deserved sit down!
