A new thread! I didn't even realise until I read Amanda's from the last thread.

Merry Christmas everyone, hope you all had a wonderful day celebrating with family and friends.

Maya - How was trip up to your parents place? I love celebrating xmas with friends. We headed over to friends for dinner and it was fabulous! They are Indian/Italian mix so had food from both countries (yumooo!!!), and they sing, play guitar and bongo's. So we had our own little band night - kids thought it was great. One of the most fun, relaxing xmas nights I've had in a long time.

Tali - we'll still be chatting till were old and grey lol!!!! Talking about our grandchildren by then! How did the move go, you all settled in?

Our Christmas was fun. Lunch out with DH's parents, relatives, back to our place for a while and the kids swam. No idea why, it wasn't even hot! We did turn the spa on before we left but the spent more time in the pool. Then off to a friends for dinner. Exhausted by the end of the night, didn't get to bed till after midnight. Then my family came over for dinner on Boxing Day. Great day/night, kids in the pool/spa again, but DH said he just loves seeing the enjoyment on their faces, they loved it. Another late night. Sunday a quiet day. DH and I bought ourselves a new TV and Wii. Spent most of the day playing around with that - its so much fun and very addictive!! Chelsea is brilliant at bowling, has beaten me evertime. Also got the Wii Fit which is fun, but a bit tricky at times. Chelsea did the aerobics, she did better than unco me!!!

Heading to Philip Island on Wed to see our friends new holiday house which has just been built. Then a NYE party here on Thursday. Its going to be 35 degrees - YEAH!! We have 4 families and their kids coming and they are all excited as they can swim all night!!!

What's everyone else got planned for NYE?
