As is traditional at this time of year, it takes us a while to actually blog about Christmas, and we don’t like to break with tradition. The girls have had a fun and busy Christmas, doing lots of things and seeing lots of people.
We had a Christmas at home for the first time, with NanAnne and Grandad coming to stay. Eve and Tess we both excited about this and enjoyed making mince pies and getting ready for Father Christmas’ arrival. Christmas day itself started fairly early with stockings. Christmas lunch was enjoyed, but best of all was Christmas pudding with ice cream, which got finished pretty quickly!
NanAnne and Grandad stayed till boxing day, and the day after we went down to Grandma and Grandads to spend a few days there – more presents! Even better than presents was the arrival the day later of their cousins Sam and Ellie (plus parents), and they proceeded to have a great time playing games, in particular Pantomimes from behind the curtains.
After a couple of days at home we then saw Aunty Louisa and Uncle Dom, and the day later, Aunty Frances, Uncle Ashley and cousin Abigail. Both days brought more presents and excitement.
Christmas was a time of great excitement, not only presents, but also seeing people which they both enjoy doing. By the end of it they were exhausted though and ready for a bit of normality.
