As any Christmas should be, ours was all about family and friends and a trip to see the church nativity. Middle man was pleased that he was able to wear his donkey onesie again!

For the boy's Christmas party I had a go at making a Christmas Pinata cake. I can confirm that it is easier building an icing igloo than a real one. Strangely I left the cake on the table and all the smarties disappeared!

T'was the night before Christmas and outside the house, big man was ensuring that the reindeer's would not miss us by sprinkling reindeer food over the entire road.


Christmas morning was an array of wrapping paper everywhere, and the boys were pleased with all their new toys.




We had celebrated with both sides of our family prior to Christmas with presents so on Boxing Day, middle man was shocked that there weren't anymore. But then we met some friends so there were!

Time with family, friends and lots of parties. Christmas was lots of fun. Now to welcome in the New Year with a trip to the panto and dinner with friends. Goodbye 2013 you have treated us really well. Wishing all my lovely followers a happy and healthy New Year xxx
