Xmas 2011, part 4/4 - Davey and Curtis

The 'real' Xmas afternoon was spent with my family - as there are currently no small kids we tend to have a few too many wine / champers / cider / beer and go into food comas from mum, Grandma, Anita and Bree's fantastic cooking. Unfortunately by this time I didn't have the energy to take happy snaps, here are a few the next morning.

Dad, Mum and Kimmee on Dad's pressie

Joel and Bree's emu

Even the dogs got pressies this year.

Sammy decided she was a Xmas pressie:

Xmas 2011, part 2/4 - extended Davey family

Xmas with most of the extended family on my Dad's side, at my cousin's (gorgeous!) new place.

It wouldn't be a family BBQ in Queensland without a large piece of plastic, a sprinkler and a squirt of detergent :)  

...and the big kid!

Xmas 2011, part 1/4 - Aurisch and McMillan

We're baaack! Moved into the new place and it is FANTASTIC! More about that later, but here are the Xmas piccies I promised...


This year's Xmas trip north was a short one. My work year finished late and Matt started his new role early in the new year. Sadly, I also spent much of the week in bed with some type of viral thingy and we had to cancel some of our long awaited catch ups. Despite this it was lovely to spend time with our families.

Our first 'Xmas' was the night I arrived as Ewen and Margaret were heading to Gladstone the next day. It was also my first time seeing Anita and Scott's new place.
