Ho! Ho! Ho!

Festive paper chain Lillie and I worked on together... Oh and the multi-coloured mini disco ball that is great when on!!!

Sequin Santa that I originally got for Lillie - I ended up working on it all on my lonesome lol...

A few snacks on Christmas Eve - sausage rolls, mini pizzas, samosas, onion bhajis, seafood sticks, salad, coleslaw, crackers for soft cheese, smoked austrian cheese and pate, bread 'n' butter and some pickles... Oh, and christmas crackers... Oh again, and the Carlsberg was for Louis and of course one for me too. It's thirsty work, is Christmas!!

I think Santa should have pulled the presents forward for me, considering I am present-hander-outta-er-ra!! My arms got scratched a few times under that tree...

 Wake Up, Louis!! Santa has been...

Lillie was delighted to have been left an acoustic - another musical instrument to add to her growing collection and I'm sure an electric guitar will be on her 'things to get' list soon enough...

 Oh, dear! Look at this mess - you should have seen the other half of the room!!

The next Jimi Hendrix - thankfully Lillie's brother, Louis knows his way around a guitar, so big brother will come in handy for some 'jammin' sessions...

Two happy kids and they both will have to do it all over again Boxing Day - it's hard work being a child!!

Lillie and I - Oh, and some orbs!! Well that's what my Auntie said - probably just dust particles in the air!!

Louis looking 'funky' in his little sister's groovy hat, while concentrating on helping Lillie out on the Wii (The Legend of Zelda game)... Oh, more beer too - of course for me and my boy....

Lillie will sure be busy in 2013 with all her reading and recipe following - can't wait to see what she cooks up with my assistance. I can live with saying, "yes, Chef!!" to Lillie - will get a lovely meal or several out of her...

The rest of Christmas has been wonderful - dinner was traditional and laid out in a 'help yourself' set up. We played Chess and Monopoly - watched some festive programmes on tv, wished we hadn't watched Merlin, but that's another post all of it's own!! We played music and joked around and Boxing Day, my two wonderful offsprings headed off to see their other parents and more than likely repeated Christmas Day...

Lillie will be home New Year's Eve - so far she has been to the doctors (she's okay), attended a Panto and I hear she is taking a woodland walk today. Louis will be back tomorrow for Sunday dinner and I've enjoyed some Me Time amongst going to work and sleeping...

Here's looking forward to a great 2013 - Happy New Year!!!
