It's 7.45 am. Hot, sticky and positively uncomfortable weather wise but a beautiful, peaceful and happy Christmas morning in all other regards.
We all slept in until 6am. I guess the big Christmas feast at my mothers house left us with a tummy full of food that could only be digested while sleeping. Our Christmas Tree is outside to keep busy little fingers off it so we got them all from under the tree and came inside and opened them. Henry was delighted by his firetrucks and let out some appropriate "wows". Amazing that a child of only 16 months can have such an obsession with trucks and all things with "weewaw"s (wheels).
We will be having lunch with my brother (Brett), his fiance (Angela) and their family. More turkey, hams and salads. Lord knows why we insist on having baked and roasted food in this weather. We still haven't made the switch to prawns and other cold dishes. My brother is highly allergic to seafood so this may be why. If he even so much as touches a prawn it could have serious consequences. Next time he's not around for Christmas I will insist on seafood only!
Until later.
Merry Christmas eve to those in the Northern Hemisphere. We wish we could be with you and enjoy the cold. It would be most welcome here right now.
