Well, t'was the day of Christmas yesterday and how cold was Melbourne!!! Coldest day on record at a chilly 14.5 degrees! The day started with some presents for the lovely Olivia. She is wearing the lovely towel from Cousin Michael , Kate and Jacqueline. Tristan didn't really care about Christmas, he only has eyes for his mummy as always.
Livvy also received a lovely vietnamese gown from her nana!

the day got underway with the usual suspects including a well known elf! I would answer the critics (namely Annabelle and Ken) who questioned the value in purchasing the elf suit seen below by saying that it has now been worn twice and will fit a certain Self boy next year so that for three years running there will be a "self Elf" so There!!!!


The selfs and their Elf and Master Tristan sat for a portrait or two.

Then it was time for lunch. Liv insisted on wearing her "raineeer ears" and ate an awful lot fo turkey and veges given she ate her body weight in doritos before lunch. Tristan sat at his mummy's feet and looked adoringly at her.....and when he was passsed to his aunt, his response was resolute.

There was tonnes of food and we all had a great lunch and then it was time for one small child to have milk and a story. Tristan passed out at about 7 - a record!! Mummy then spent some time cleaning up but it was worth it - lovely Christmas 2006!
By the way - anyone seen Toby???
