Christmas and The New Year


I did zilch cooking for Christmas! Luke did every bit. So relaxing. Beer gravy happening here.


I did decorate a gingerbread house with the girls though.



Christmas family photos always have tears included in them on the day so we did this one a few days before at the in-laws.


Christmas Eve present from my hair dresser...purplish blonde hair. Woops! Spent the remainder of the day with my hair covered in tomato sauce to take out the colour (I kid you not)



Like our St Nick? hehe



Decorating Gran and Pop's amazing tree


 Poor babies! Just after we dragged them all out of bed for Midnight Mass:)



Your typical elf with extra chub!






Huge Christmas light display at one of the local Catholic churches. They also had this beautiful nativity scene inside. The kids did not recognize this place as a church sadly, it was extremely modern.







 Fairy floss hair


 Out for an excursion with Dad


Icecream?



 Fatty.




 Vienna's art work always involves lots of babies. Sign of the future?





 A little sewing project


 And another skirt I made (still a bit too big at the waist though)








 We had a mischievous elf running around our house at night this last Christmas hehe







 We went back to the spot where Luke proposed to me 7 years ago :) This bench seat down by the Brisbane River.



Cicada skins.


Our Little Miss Fearless with the cicada skins attached to her shirt. Yuck!


All this fresh air is tiring!







 Swinging from the trees up at Mount Tamborine



Is this a familiar look?



This was such a magical spot, up at a winery at Mount Tamborine. We went up to see the glow worm caves.




 Ben was sick in the caves (he a claustrophobic! way to find out hehe)




 Our gang!


 Pizza?



It's as if we don't feed him! He was drumming his fingers, waiting...
