For Christmas we were given some money off some very lovely friends and with it we decided that we would get a strimmer/line trimmer for simon. This is him in action on the first day, every edge and corner was done in the whole yard.

Well Christmas came and went here very quickly, i had to work up until Christmas, but then i had a little over a weeks holiday, during the Christmas and new year period. But unfortunately i am back at work again....
It was a little different to what Scotland was like last year. Although the weather was not great and i spent the day in jeans and a jumper which is a little different because usually you don't get out of swimwear.

We spent Christmas eve at my mother's house with all that side of the family.

Then on Christmas morning we went to visit Simon's nanny who lives about 20 minutes from us, but very rarely leaves the house.

Christmas lunch/afternoon was spent at Simon's parent's house with all their side of the family. (photo on the left).










This is Freya, one of our nieces who is showing what she got for her Christmas. a very pretty tutu. As always the children got lots of nice things, and the adults got lots of unusual things....











Then on Christmas Night we were back out to my mum's again where we stuffed ourselves full of even more food, and chocolate of course.

This was Nana on Christmas night.
