We Love Christmas!

Yesterday I visited Mum and Dads and decided put up the christams tree, it a little early for us this year but we did it anyway. Pullling out the Christmas decorations box is like going back in time for me, we still have haeps of the decorations we made as kids like the peg reindeer and the knitted stockings mum made us all. Every Christmas moring we would wake up really early and run into Mum and Dads and go through our Christmas Stockings Together, then at about lunch time we would remember the little stocking hanging on the tree, Santa always put a packet of life savers in them for us. This Year Mum even quilted a little mat for the Christmas tree to sit on, which i think is really lovely.

Family Picnics!

This image should have been apart of 'A Week of Picnic's' but I only found it yesterday, its of one of the many picnic's our family shared together growing up. I wasn't born yet and Mum said Claire was about six months old. We're not exactly sure of wear it was taken either, Claire seems to think Hanging Rock, but Mum isn't convinced. That's' our Dad at the very head of the table, and Our Pa, with our cousin John on his Lap, Nana is the one with the lovely shirt on sitting opposite him, and a few of our Aunties and Uncles are other cousins are there too. We haven't had a picnic like this in a long time, as some of our family have moved interstate and some are living overseas, it would be nice to get everyone back together again.
