Christmas 2015

So Santa came bright and early at 6:30 am! it was so lovely to have my babies running in to wake us up, Santa was very kind and brought so many wonderful toys! The kids were delighted with their presents, and I was delighted to see their faces light up with happiness!

Our Family

 

 

I was very lucky to receive such beautiful gifts from my husband, my beautiful children and my family, but the greatest gift I could ever receive was the love of my family. I am so happy to have everyone around me on this day, and I am so grateful to have this beautiful family!

Christmas Eve 2015

It's Christmas Eve and we have two little people very excited for Christmas morning! I have to admit I'm getting very excited too! I can't wait to see their little faces when they see what Santa brought! It is time for our annual hot chocolate followed by our 'Night Before Christmas' story, then it is early to bed to wait for Santa to visit!

 

 

 

We are all in our new Pjs and are off to bed!

 

Merry Almost Christmas!

Ballet class

Today is the end of Lauren's first term or her grade 1 ballet class! she is amazing, I was blown away by her poise and her elegance. I was so proud of her, and it was a privilege to be able to watch her class. Lauren absolutely loves her ballet class, and she can't wait for next term!

Trip to Winterval festival 2015

This weekend we took the kids to my hometown to the Winterval Festival! It's a festival held there every year. There are craft stalls and little shops and food everywhere! There was a light show and lots to do, the kids loved it! We got to spend lovely quality time with my family which was great! It was a great weekend! Everyone is getting so excited for Christmas now!
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Christmas party time& our school fair

Today my best Sonjia and I took all the kids to her company Christmas party. They saw Santa, had their faces painted, and had balloon animals, goodies and a private screening of the 'Good Dinosaur'

 They all had an absolutely amazing time!

Had to add a photo log Lauren's face paint because it was hilarious! She was a wise elf! Classic!

It was such a great day which we finished off by going to the Christmas fair at our school. This year I was manning the raffle stand so I couldn't take any pictures, Derek never takes pictures!!

What a brilliant weekend!
