Randomness...

A few Random photos from our first Christmas in Texas...

An elf broke into my kitchen and made mince pies, and cherry pies, and bluberry pies! Yep! He made waaaay too much pastry!


The results of the excessive pastry making. An incredible feat of engineering... An Exploding Mince Pie!!! Dont ask me how... I have no clue!


For about an hour on Christmas Eve we thought we would have a white Christmas! Yes! We had more snow!!! The day before it was 75f, but in the evening it dropped about 40f in 1/2 hour (!) and was freezing overnight with high winds, hail and thunderstorms. Next morning we woke to blowing snow... It didnt stick though... No white Christmas here. For all of you in the UK who got gobs and gobs of the stuff, be grateful! Dontcha love Abbis face... 'Hurry up and take the picture already... its COLD'...

I bought a Gingerbread House Kit this year. The plan was to just stick it together and let the kids go for it. Well, said kids got bored waiting for the 'glue' to set and decided to watch TV instead. One came back every now and again, looked at the box and demanded I make it look like the photo! Ha ha ha ha ha! Heres MY effort... sad.

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday, filled with fun, family and laughter. I should be back in a couple of days with a fun post... Im planning to do a top 10 favourite post of the year. Hopefully...

TTFN,
C xx
