Christmas Day 2013

Warning: loads of photos and not a lot of writing!

Christmas morning saw numero uno wake at a sharp 3:45am, but he was swiftly sent back to bed with strict instructions not to wake anyone until 6am. Selective hearing ensured all were up, including Nana & Pop, at 5:30am.

We headed off to Christmas Mass at 8:30am, wishing the Infant Jesus happy birthday and begging His intersession for some special intentions.

Then back to more shuffling of feet, furniture and loud music.



Photo bombed.



Nana & Pop with the Nine (soon to be 10!)

Pressies were handed out!

…clearly a few got mixed up!


…..and then we all collapsed!
……………………………………………………………………………………..

Boxing Day was a little more relaxing :

I hope you all enjoyed a beautiful Christmas with friends and family
Much Love
