It is the morning of Christmas Eve.

It is still overcast and humid here in Sydney - no sunshine :(

I realised this morning that I'm short a number of Christmas cards - so I've got to venture out against my better judgement! I'll just duck into my local newsagent though and avoid the malls.

Counting down to this evening's street party - I hope the rain holds off!

Have an enjoyable day everyone - stay sane if you are heading to the shops for some last minute gifts!

We're all done and wrapped. My wife is a superhero! Lawn is mowed already, so can enjoy today in preparation for tomorrow.

Its pouring rain here on the Sunshine Coast...

We're all wrapped but still have a near naked tree which I will delegate to the kids when they're both here. ... have ventured to the shopping centre and come home alive and with enough food for an army which will weirdly disappear almost overnight.
Pav is in the oven, veges are prepped... and we're almost good to go.

Family Christmas kicks off in two hours... oops... better go... :D

Yay! It's christmas day! (& Happy Birthday Grandma too...)

Beautiful sunshine (32 degrees projected) and an early morning jetski is the plan. Back home to open gifts then off to a buffet lunch at a resort and home for a relaxing swim (or nap). I can't wait - all those hours hunting for gifts, wrapping, making homemade goodies to share and finally sneaking around to find out what santa may have delivered...I sit here at 1am waiting for my eldest child to call for me to pick him up from his part time job (of course they're running late when I want him to be tucked up in bed). At least the day may end up as we planned it. Merry Christmas everyone!

OMG.... what a haul Beth... way to go....

I too got Disney stamp set and the Brave little tailor deco... snap... :D

would have loved to get the Disneyland game... no Xbox though....

Have eaten too much already and its not even lunch time yet....

Hope everyone is having an Amazing Disney-filled Christmas and that the pixie dust flows freely for the rest of the holidays.... -/

We've been down to the beach ( its closed due to WILD surf - made for some specy pictures though) , had fresh waffles for brunch, been hitting the chocolate box with regular intervals... and having a lovely relaxing (surprisingly rain free) day.... Nearly time to break out the Champers and kick this day up a notch ;)

Enjoy everyone... hugs all round xxx

I got this game too!

(Merry Christmas Everyone!!)

How cool is it? I couldn't believe how accurate it was, walking down Main Street. I spent an hour before heading over to my sister's house, just running around the whole park avoiding all the quests. I just wanted to see how accurate it was - and it blew me away! Even my Dad was pointing out places. It was so cool watching people on the Tea Cups and suddenly seeing the Monorail zip past overhead past the Matterhorn!

I'm very impressed :D

Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year.

We too had a very Happy Christmas Day catching up with friends and family.

It sounds that the Disneyland game is amazing we are going to play it one meeting in 2012.

Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year, For those with Disney holidays planned have a great holiday.

Keith and Della have a great time at Hong Kong Disneyland. We look forward to hearing about it and what it was like on New Years Eve,

Wayne

Keith & Della,

Hope you have a fantastic time bringing in the New Year in Hong Kong Disneyland.

Looking forward to catching up with both of you at the next meeting to hear all about it.

Remember to take lots of photos.
