This morning I had a lovely chat with my first mother in England and I promised her some family photos. We made an effort to take a group shot this year.... so here we are - all but Poppy in this one. I will take the chance to wish all the rest of the extended family still in the UK or Canada a Happy Xmas too.
At lunchtime I took the girls their presents.
They already had quite a pile still under the tree and others already put away, but they seemed to like mine and they gave Poppy and I some lovely ones back....

Love the sculpture with the trumpet. |

Molly in charge of the camera..... |
Rosie and Poppy ran round like mad things chasing birds...
Then it was time for another meal.... more leftovers with some extra goodies. "Is it time yet" pleads Phoebe...
Phoebe still waiting patiently... but I can assure you, it was worth it! Nom nom nom. Caitlin made the trifle and we had meringues and cream with raspberries from Otahuna Berries.
Thank you Jaz and Mark for a lovely day xxxx
I will leave you with some great pics Alex took of the dogs this week... and dear old Motley, who is pushing 20 years old, lives full time with our neighbours who adore him, but comes over for visits and sleeps on the dog's beds....
I hope you all had a lovely Xmas too.
