christmas day...

I realised that I hadn't put any of my photos of Christmas onto my blog. I don't have that many as we chose to capture most of the commotion on our video recorder. But here are a couple from the big day...

Christmas morning began around 7am when Lachlan woke up. We began opening presents pretty much straight away. Lachlan enjoyed ripping the paper off his presents, but wasn't that interested in any of the gifts until we started to set a few of them up, in particular his new keyboard. He was so excited with it and loved yelling his gibberish into the microphone, banging away on the keys and generally making a lot of noise! After our pancake breakfast, we got ready and headed up to Glenorie to Joanna and Andrew's home for Christmas lunch. After exchanging a mountain of gifts, we enjoyed a yummy traditional hot Christmas lunch. We were all so full after that! John got ready for work and left there around 2:30pm, returning again an hour or so later in his Police car...

After his visit (and a photo opportunity), John headed back to work and we headed home with a car full of generous gifts and left overs to keep us going for days. We all slept well that night...
