Are we having fun yet?

No Christmas Tree this year, the kids are all with the O.P's* but we get to spend some time with our eldest son and his wife and family. Later in the afternoon we will go to the beach, get some pippis for bait and perhaps have a picnic tea. I will miss seeing our Grandson, but I know he will have a fun day.


December has always been a frantic time of year for us, both on the farm and in our business. Depending on the weather and the contractors, there is hay to be made, and people want their stoves and lights in order for Christmas.

I have a few handmade Christmas decorations I like to put out and love twinkling lights at any time of the year.

Christmas can be a very stressful time and evoke all kinds of emotions, good and bad. It is, after all, only one day and the world won't end on the 26th, (although some people behave as if it will!) All is very low key here, but next year will be different because we will all be together at home.

*The Other Parents. ( I can share, I love the O.P's as well.)
