And so this is nearly Christmas

What a year, what a month so far. It seems like only yesterday that Leanne and I were planning last Christmas and here we are again.

Charlotte is all excited about Santa, Sarah is getting ready for the big move to to Queensland (remember to speak slowly), Lisa is working 12 hour days, Gerard is working just hard as well and Leanne & I are in need of a much needed break - BALI here we come.

And because two young ladies love Justin Bieber so much I had to include this.

Our Christmas Lights

 

We had to try and add some video of our Christmas lights. It’s really quite hard to capture them but we think this video will give you some idea of the what we have done.

 

And to continue the theme of slightly different Christmas songs – let’s go for U2.

2011 Christmas Pageant

What a great event made even better (in our eyes) by Charlotte’s presence in the lead off group. Despite a very hot morning the parade was fantastic and in particular the Krissie Westwood girls were awesome. A big thanks to Uncle David for providing cold drinks to revive us after the pageant.

We also couldn’t resist adding another Xmas Carol, this one sung by the one and only “The Boss”.

Christmas Lights & Songs

Here we are again, Christmas presents to buy, Christmas Carols to download and what seems like thousands of lights to install all over the house and it’s all worth it just to see the smile on one particular 8yo girls face. We can’t wait for the Christmas Pageant either as charlotte is front and centre of that. 

We hope everyone is enjoying this warm start to the silly season and thought that the song below is really what this time of the year should be about also a certain Declan McManus is one of Leanne's all time favourites.
