Our First White Christmas

We got a sleep in on Christmas morning until 8.30am (this may not happen again for many years to come!).  Cooper was very excited to see that Santa had left lots of presents and the carrot had a bite out of it.  Cooper asked me to leave Santa a coffee and a cookie so we made him a latte and left him a good old Aussie Tim Tam.  Santa even filled the stockings on our mantle peice with chocolates, Cooper was amazed!

Unwrapping presents took us till about 10.30 then we thought we better hurry up and get ready for Christmas lunch.  We spent Christmas day with some other Australian families in our street.  As usual we ate way too much and had our dessert at about 4.30pm.  Kim did an awesome job cooking turkey, lamb and pork roasts and Matt was an excellent bartender, the cocktails just kept coming.  At about 7pm we were all realxing in the loungeroom ready to fall asleep, lucky we only had to walk down the street to get home although it was very cold by that time.  It was a great day, the kids loved their presents and they really had a ball playing with them.  Thanks to everyone who bought us gifts and sent cards and gifts in the mail.
