31/12/2010 - New Years Eve

We had no intention of staying up till midnight and just went to bed as normal. Jonathan had other ideas though, and I was still up at midnight.

30/12/2010 - Christmas party

We failed to get all our friends over on one day this year, so we are having two small get togethers. This was number 1...

29/12/2010 - The tree

We've had a purple and silver themed tree for years now, and keep adding more baubles and hanging things every year. There are well over 100 now! I think we are stuck with this colour scheme for a while...

26/12/2010 - Christmas number 2

We set off for Wales on boxing day, and got there in time for Christmas lunch number 2.

25/12/2010 - Nap time

Elizabeth has not had a nap during the day for a long time, but a couple of late nights and an exciting day took their toll.

25/12/2010 - Christmas meal

25/12/2010 - Marzipanimals

Elizabeth's present to the Humphries family was these Marzipan animals and people she made (with a little help from her dad). Very tasty they were too.

25/12/2010 - Christmas!

Elizabeth was very excited about Christmas this year, but she still didn't get up till 7. All she asked Santa for was a Tinkerbell dress and some yoghurt coated raisins!

As last year she still needed persuading to open her presents. I'd imagine this is pretty rare for a 4/5 year old! She ended up saving some for boxing day (and then saving some of those for when we got back from Wales)

17/12/2010 - Ballet

Elizabeth has given up her tap lessons, but is still loving Ballet and Jazz. Doesn't she look graceful?

16/12/2010 - Last day at Meadows

Elizabeth's last ever day at her pre school. She didn't seem too sad really, and is looking forward to going to school after Christmas.

15/12/2010 - Brown eyed boy

No surprises this time. Jonathan is definitely brown eyed and brown haired just like his mum and dad.

13/12/2010 - Sleeeeepy

Jonathan has generally slept pretty well, but there are still occasions when you just need a nap during the day...

02/12/2010 - Dinner

I think this is our best dinner picture ever!

02/12/2010 - Sledge

Somehow everywhere around Reading got loads of snow, but it missed us out. We only got a couple of inches at most. It was just about enough to get our new sledge out though, and give it a try!
