Christmas as a Kid...

Scrapbook.com Blogger challenge...

The best thing I remember of Christmas as a kid was the silly hats you get in the bon bons. We have so many photos in the kings and queens hats, too funny. I make my family wear thenm now too. Lol.

My parents had the policy if we got up before 7am, we didn't presents so we used to wake up real early and sit in our rooms, staring at the walls and fidgeting till it was 7am.

We used to rip our presents open and play straight away with them then when we were finished, we used to stack thnm on our beds, we always had a huge mountain of presents.

Christmas lunch was at out grandparents house then at night we used to watch the fireworks locally, we used to stand on the verandah and watch them crackling above us.

Christmas Wishlist...

Scrapbook.com Blogger Challenge.

This Christmas, the one thing I wanted was to go visit my husband's family for Christmas to sho off my little girl, then Peter's nana got diagnosed with liver and bowel cancer so we really want to go down now.

My material wishlist is:
* iPod Nano- to store my images on.
* Albums for my scrapbooking.
* Tim tam gift pack.
Tim tams are chocolate biscuits and are too die for. Lol
In the gift pack, you get 2 coffee mugs, a packet of tim tams and a packet of Vittoria coffee. Yummo.

Merry Christmas girls.

Re-do Christmas.

Blogger Challenge at Scrapbook.com

The best Christmas I have had was Christmas 2005. It was the first Christmas in 8 years that my dad was home with us as he is usually working away.

Mum, dad, Peter (DH) and myself (and bubba in tummy) went to the beach where we had the traditional lunch (chicken, ham, turkey) with prawns, oysters and salad.

After lunch we sat under the trees and had dessert and a drink, which at this point I didn't know I was pregnant then after we had enough, we came home and ate more, drank more and watched DVDs.

It was that special that we are planning another beach Aussie Christmas this year.

Merry Christmas Girls.
