This Christmas Mum, Dad and Jo came over to our place although H. had to go into work. Pete, Jody and kids spent the day with Jody’s family.
Lunch was quiet and relaxing, with the music of Nora Jones playing softly in the background. On the menu was chicken kebabs, an assortment of salads, focacia bread and a yummy Mars Bar cheesecake provided by Mum, which pleased the sweet tooth in all of us.
Kelsie was happy to be temporarily reunited with her mum Gemma, although she wasn’t keen on sharing any doggie treats with her! All three dogs were well behaved around the table, and Dad seemed quite taken with little Sasha.
The day was very hot, however it was cool indoors and after a satisfying meal, the four of us played a rousing game of Scrabble.
Boxing Day: The next day everyone met at Mum and Dad’s place and were entertained by the sight and sounds of young kids ripping open their presents. We enjoyed a delicious lunch prepared by Mum, with a tasty pasta salad by Jody.
