Pre-Xmas shots...

Before we left for Xmas, we played around the house a little bit. This is Owen's cupboard - it's full of plastic bowls and lids for him to pull out and play with.

We also played in the yard before we went - Pete had bought a leaf vacuum - here, Lisa is showing how well it picks up the b*stard mulberry leaves...

We opened our presents before we left - since we'd be gone a week. Here's a picture of the tree in all it's glory before the mad unwrapping!

The upgrade to blogger has somehow blocked my Hello program from Picasa from sharing the pictures direct to the blog. We'll have to do it the old fashioned way for now.
