Chistmas Part Two - Family BBQ

Above - here is the traditional camera on timer photo, beep beep beep, everyone smile quick!

As EVERYONE is going to be elsewhere this year on Christmas Day we decided to have a Christmas catch up before they all left.

Mel and the kids were a last minute apology because they were sick.

Rose and I share a birthday, which is the week before Christmas. So Mum and Dad usually try to come up that weekend.

Small Children dropping food on the floor, I can't imagine why there 

wasn't more of a mess to sweep up afterwards.

Kimbadale was closely inspected by standing on a chair.

And the wrapping paper mess.

The most successful present was a music box that Mum and Dad gave to Edith.

You know one of those ones that ballerina pops up when it opens and plays music.  

 

Here's Edie  the following day still in ballerina mode.
