Christmas Day













A 6.30 start and full of excitement. He'd arrived and with hobby horses. From then on it was a non stop roller coaster ride of excitement, chaos and ripping of paper as the mountain of presents was slowly demolished during the course of the day. Father Christmas had done it again -spot on- everybody liked what they'd got. Elizabeth and Maisy didn't know what to tackle first as big sister Eren sat inputting her new mobile phone. Mum and Dad glanced gleefully at the pairs of slippers which had dutifully been exchanged and not forgetting the socks and pants. There were a couple of added extras in the form of a couple of Mariah Carey CD's and Barack Obama book 'The Audacity of Hope'. Dinner was served at 1 o'clock and was consumed -absolutely delicious and great home made Christmas cake that afternoon. Hope you all had a great Christmas day.Some of us were tired out at the end of it!!!!

A beautiful tree and mounds of presents. I am sure dinner was great. I love to see the smiles on the kids faces. And then to see them passed out on the couch from all the excitment. That is great. Merry Xmas to you all from The Dietrich's in USA.
