Christmas wrap up.

I thought I was ready to let Christmas go. Turns out I just needed one more post to let it all out of my system. Sorry, it's a long one.


Here we go.


Family Tradition - Gingerbread House
It is a family tradition for us now to make a Gingerbread house on Christmas Eve. We love it. The kids get very involved.

This years house had substantial modifications.

Outdoor toilet facilities for one.

Addition of gingerbread child proof fencing.

And, boiled lolly leadlight windows.

Stars. 
At the last minute I had the urge to make some star garlands. So Christmas eve saw me watching Carols by Candlelight and furiously crocheting and starching.

Excuse the didgeridoo. I don't know how that got in the shot.

Christmas table

Christmas Day here was stinking hot.

These poor birds were lying on the grass with their wings spread to try and cool down.

So I went with white and bright.

This was the thrifted damask tablecloth I picked up a couple of weeks ago at a bargain price.

If you have made it this far. Well done.

In the meantime, 

I'll be playing with this.

Hanging out on Twitter

And chilling here.

And nibbling on this.
