serious christmas preparations...

This weekend we have begun our Christmas activities...

We have been doing something for Advent each day but this weekend was the start of serious Christmas Preparations...lol

I have made a HUGE batch of Rum Blobs...my version of rum balls...for teacher gifts and other gifts...

I have made Evangeline's Christmas dress....Morganne has a lovely dress mum bought her to wear...so next year I shall make her a new one...and this one should still fit Evangeline! We went out for breakfast....

Mum made Christmas Cookies with the girls...for gifts at school...and some for us too! Evangeline wrote in Christmas cards for her class mates...to go with the cookies... And we put up our tree... Evangeline made an advent calendar... And she made an impromptu Father Christmas dress up... and made Morganne an elf...but the elf was grumpy as she did not want to be an elf! I took our Christmas photos and made our Christmas cards and addressed them all ready to post tomorrow...

And we had a friend over to play and swim this afternoon... Ben has replaced the reticulation pump and fixed a major water leak this weekend... And a busy week ahead as we finish school on Wednesday! And I do not like this new blogger...Lissy
