This was the backyard and deck on Xmas eve. Mum was trying to keep calm, as she wondered whether the place was going to be presentable in less than 24 hours, to accomodate the 20 people we had coming for Christmas lunch.
The weather had severely delayed Dad's backyard blitz.
Really it did look a bit like a bomb site.
Inside however was a different sight....two of Santa's elves digging for under the tree treasure.
Success!
Em was worried there wasn't to be anything for her. Worried about having been a bad girl this year missy!?!?!
There was talk of canning gifts this year and making a donation (we all make varying donations at different times of the year as well, especially Mum who can't resist a charity call!), however it appears the strongest resistance came from the biggest kid of all - Dad - who could barely wait to open his presents!!!
And his big favourite present - a high pressure water thingy.
This was the backyard on Christmas day - quite the turn around, though the rain prevented the grass going down.
Getting fancy with the table decorations.
