HAPPY CHRISTMAS FROM US!!!!!

An incredibly rare species other wise known as Husband and Wife. I think in 16 years we have about 3 of these rare photos (excluding the wedding photos!!). Xmas Eve we went out for a childrens party with Chrissie and Josh and then picked Mark up for some Grub!

ps: I think Georgia may have taken this photo! (not bad for a beginner, our heads aren't cut off!!)


At home Georgia put out her Santa stop here sign and sprinkled her magic Reindeer Dust so they can see their way clearly with the sparkly oats.
thanks to Helena who rescued me from a tight spot!!! I was planning on sending Georgia up to her room whilst I quickly made some, but by then I wasn't feeling very well and just wanted to get it over and done with quickly until Mark pulled out 2 bags of beautifully made reindeer Dust complete with instructions. I must remember to complain to the school about her not bringing some home!! Do you think she'll still be making it at age 11?

She couldn't wait to set out the milk and carrot for Rudolph, who last year made the mistake of giving her a present and she has remembered this 12 months on and is wondering if he will give her one this year!! I tried to convince her Snata onlu had room for one mince pie but she wasn't having it. I could hardly remind her that he'd just been out for tea!!


Then Georgia made an arrangement of her nativity figurines for Father Christmas to see. I'm not sure what the blue balls were all about in her mind though!!


SOME OLDER PHOTOS:

I took this one but it hasn't turned around..(sorry you'll just have to look at it sideways or turn your monitor!!)

another sideways one taken near a funky tree at Panto...loved those colours and the the huge ornaments.
Bens best Xmas treat was the ride on La La he loves Telly Tubbies and couldn't stop flirting with her!!!
Taken at the beginning of December but I love his smile and wanted to share it with the Grandparents.

EARLY ON XMAS DAY

The kids opening their presents on Christmas Day.

Ben spent the whole day playing with his table and putting things in and out of his wooden toy box and trashing the wrapping paper which we kept on finding everywhere!!
I had had enough by the afternoon and the sickness bug had kicked in by then!!!

Night all.....love to Granny Sylvia and Grandad David, Nana June and Craig, Grandad Peter and Granny Brenda and thankyou so much for helping to make this another magical Christmas for us.

PS: Hello to Alex, Reecie, Elliot, Sarah and Linda in NZ xxxx

Love and mince pies from the Philps family xxx

Hi all...a quick up date before collecting Georgia from school. Ben says Hi through his snotty face!! He is full of cold. This piccie was him in his better days!!!

Looking gorgeous if I do say so!!

Georgia was an Angel in her school nativity play yesterday. She looked gorgeous. The video may be on the Telegraph Site in a few days, I'll let you know when.

She had to take baby Jesus a present from New Zealand....she took him a Rugby Ball!!

Love Ruth and snotty xxx
