Christmas Catch Up....






Christmas Day morning we were all up at 6.30am. Harry crept down the stairs behind me, think he was just waiting for someone to get up. Ben was awake as Katie rang him at 5.30am. Ben & Harry were really pleased with their pressies. Brought Ben his ipod classic, docking station, ipod charger, 3 new pairs of jeans, No fear clothing, his tickets to go to Katie's in February, slippers, socks and lots of little bits. Harry had his wii package, No Fear clothing and Roller blades, a couple of DVD's, slippers, socks and again loads of little bits.
Its a tradition in this house that we have a little present on the table at Christmas, I'd got the boys a tin shaped like an old fashioned racing car which was filled with chocolate chip cookies. Mick and I had a tube of sweets each.
We had a lovely dinner and chilled out for the rest of the day, watching films and stuffing our faces. Harry did have a go on his roller blades, but he needs a lot more practise..
Mick's Mum and Dad arrived about 11am Boxing Day, they had a clear run all the way and also had 3 stops, so they did really well to get here that early. All of us had a go on Harry's wii, which was a good laugh. We had the traditional boxing day dinner, cold meats and pickles...
Yesterday, we went into Carmarthen early to have a look in the Sales, Ben brought the XBOX Elite that he's been saving up for and Harry got some games for his wii. I managed to get the light fittings I wanted for the lounge, so their going up today, also managed to get some nice baskets to go in the kitchen cupboards. Mick's Mum & Dad treated us to a new television, as ours as been on the blink for ages, and to be honest was way down our list of things to get, with all the other stuff we still need to get to finish the house. So we now have a new LCD TV which is great and we really appreciated it, can actually watch the TV now without it suddenly going to a black screen. Well I'm off now to get the new light fittings up.. Will try and update later. Merry Christmas......
