Extended Family

I don't have a big family and not a lot in Australia, so it was lovely on Saturday to have most of my family together, all but Nathan & my cousin Andrew. It was a very hot and muggy day in Sydney and we had some rain but we were able to have a break in the rain to eat outside but spent the rest of the day inside with the aircon on!

Shenee got to open her present from Nanny - a Janome!!

Graham reading about his favourite subject - money & real estate LOL
Of course Lachlan enjoyed the Wii!

Better late then never!

Not much happening here, am on holidays from work for 2 weeks over Christmas, unfortunately I go back this week on Thursday. But it has been a nice relaxing break, Craig has been working most days over Christmas so have had a fair bit of me time! No sewing though, just can't get myself back into that yet! But it has been a good chance to catch up on those chores that don't get done when you are working.........like cleaning the oven and cleaning out kitchen cupboards.
Christmas was pretty quiet again here this year, poor Craig had to work again, so just just me & the boys and mum & dad came over. Had a lovely day together, and played around on the Wii! Craig & the boys bought me a Wii fit for Christmas, which i have used a couple of times so far!

Here we are with the toys from the Bon Bons....mum scored well - she got a tape measure!!

(Please ignore our oddly painted wall in the above pics but we have had some plaster work done and have been deciding on colours!)
