Well Christmas 2008 has come and gone and we had a wonderful time. Ethan loves the Christmas Movies, Carols and ripping all the wrapping paper off of his presents. I had so much fun watching Ethan and Scott enjoy their gifts and playing away. I also got some very nice gifts and I am grateful we were able to be so blessed at a time of year where many are more unfortunate than we are.
I do have to admit that Christmas in Australia doesn't feel like Christmas at all, there is such a lack of Christmas spirit in our neighborhood. Only two people other than us put up lights and without the snow it isn't the same. I always hated the cold weather while I lived in Canada but I wish I could have it for 3 days a year over Christmas Eve through Boxing Day! We has people over Christmas eve and I had Christmas Carols playing and they hated it so it only lasted 5 min. I love Christmas Carols and traditional things but I must be alone in that.
We had a beautiful Christmas lunch, with turkey ham and all the trimmings, by far my favorite meal of the year!
Well here are some pictures from Christmas morning!!
This was Ethan at 8:30am after we had to wake him up on Christmas morning. He slept in like a good little boy, it was Scott who w up and eager at 7:30am, haha.
I hope everyone had as Merry of a Christmas as we did!
For New Years Eve we had a very quiet night. I was pretty sick with a cold and we just watched movies and played xbox. We stayed up until midnight and went to bed, so all in all pretty average. I hope many had a more exciting one than we did.
