festivities








1. Breakfast of croissants, jam and cheese, such decadence. 2. Bucket loads of toasted muesli being made. 3. A perfectly coloured rolling pin. 4. Eggplant pickle. 5 Poe's gift for Phil. 6. The stick tree 7. Teepee Bags (with everything you need to make your own mini teepee) and little bags for the little ones, filled with treasures. 8. & 9. Printed and embroidered linen hangings for our loves. 10. A Christmas Eve Birthday celebration. 11. Phil (Grandpa) got the honours of unwrapping the first gift. 12. His very own fiddle, there has been lots of busy, busy, stop, stops in our home since. 13. Plaits and a croquembouche perfect ingredients for a wonderful day. 14. A table laden with food and excitement. 15. 16. & 17. Nina sharing the light from her beautiful German Pyramid. 18. Our favourite thing about the last few days was sharing it with my dad, he is always so open and generous with his spirit and love, brimming with love and support and is an absolute delight to have around. My mum is in Malaysia with her sister, it was definitely different, not having her around, but it was so special having my dad all to ourselves.
