Good Morning Medusa and all the Lovely Ladies to come
Well Christmas is done. Had a really good time.
Christmas Eve - all kids and plus ones here, so decided at 3pm to change plans and have our Turkey/Pork Baked dinner then instead of Christmas Day. Watched the Carols while cleaning up. Had to laugh at the young ones flaking on the couch, while the 'old girl' kept going until after midnight.
Christmas Day - Up and presents, Pancake/Croissant/Fresh Fruit Breakfast with all. Then big kids and plus ones went visiting family. Lunch was our Prawns/Salads etc so not as much prep, so for the 1st time EVER I got to try my new pool float out on Christmas Day, had a lovely float for 1/2hr while listening to Christmas songs on the outdoor speakers. Packed up after lunch and heading to Hubby's Brothers house, more food and drinks for some (I was the driver, at the last minute S-i-L decided she could only sleep 2 at hers so I was left dropping others off to youngest Brothers house and 3 of us went to M-i-L's to sleep).
Boxing Day - Hubby and Son worked in the morning, then Hubby came back to play Golf with his Dad and Brother and Nieces Partner. DD21 and TNB headed home and so did DS22. DD17, M-i-L and I went shopping and had lunch out (this was new and we really enjoyed it), we each bagged a bargain. Stayed over again at M-i-L's and had BBQ dinner.
27th - Headed home, 8 for dinner. Had a game night, new Family Feud, Pictionary and another fun game DD21 got that's called Bananarama. Served all the Christmas food to the young 'vacuums' so it's almost gone. Had a BBQ and used some more leftovers.
28th - Quiet day at home. Hubby and I went for a walk in the morning, nice. DD21 and TNB are still here (he is off until after New Year). Started to dismantle Christmas, taking it slow as last year I did a bad job packing up, trying to store things better for easier set up next year. Hubby took lights down (earliest ever). Watched a few movies. BBQ dinner.
Today - Hubby and I walked again this morning, nice. Hubby back to work. DD21 and TNB still here. Tackling the washing. I have 4 washing baskets full, 2 loads under way, 2 to go. (I forgot how much washing 5 people can create, lol). All here for dinner again tonight (I think), might put the young men to work for another BBQ. Hubby and I have started DUKAN DIET again today (have fallen off that wagon over Christmas), want to get a few kilo's back off before Birthday week (15th to 23rd) and then our Girls trip to Melbourne. Judy I'd like to catch up with you while I'm there if we can organize it. Also planning a bit more Christmas pack up (hoping to get the girls involved). Will leave the Tree until last, I didn't get a really nice photo of the kids, so I will be pressing the issue tonight for another.
Ok, time to start checking things off my list. Wishing you all a Terrific Tuesday. (When I get a chance I will head back and see your posts for the week).
Oh and I rang Sys yesterday, all is well with them. Very busy with her work in Aged Care. Kids and Hubby doing well. She has had a great Christmas and planning a Good New Year. It's funny I met her here, have seen her once in real life and we can talk like we were old friends who have know each other for years. Love that girl xo
