Christmas Eve we fed the Reindeer, left Santa milk and jelly tots this year and then we went to my best friend Mandy to join all our friends to wait for midnight to open our R30 gag gift presents from everyone.
Good Times!

All the presents under the tree at Mandy's Christmas Eve Gathering.
Mandy is addicted to Farmville Facebook
and one of her gifts from Riaan was a little farm
Percy with his gorgeous Christmas hat and stunning new teeth
Norman got a pair of goggles and immediate wanted to take a dip
The clown of the group got an appropriate outfit.
Tammy got a Barbie face cloth (Don opening a prezzie too)
We only got home at 2am from opening gifts at Mandy's so Christmas morning I was knackered when Megan woke me up at 7am to open presents. We nevertheless had tons of fun opening gifts and watching the girls faces with each one.

Megan got a dolls house and all the furniture
and a harmonica
Just when they thought they'd opened all their gifts, I gave them this little sign gift wrapped.
"Look Outside!"
When they got outside they found their brand new twinkling bikes.
They were thrilled.
And that, my friends, was Christmas 2009.
Today we're off to Riaan's family to celebrate with his brother and his girlfriend who arrived from the UK late last night - so we're doing Christmas all over again with them today.
My trousers are already getting a little tighers! Eek!
