Christmas, done and dusted!

When I posted our family photo with Santa last week, I mentioned that I hadn't realised that this site hadn't been updated for almost 12 months.  So today I've gone through the various Blogger options and given this - our family web page - a bit of a spruce up and new look.

To top it off, below is our annual family photo in front of the tree on Christmas morning.
Hopefully it wont be another 12 months before I post another update SMJBK update!

Santa's knee - 2013

I've just realised that I haven't updated this site (our family domain blog) since last Christmas!

Today we visited Santa at Westfield Fountain Gate for the annual photo of the kids sitting on his knee, everything was going well until Karla had to walk up to the big fella in red but instead burst into tears.

Mum to the rescue!  For the first time in a long while (before the kids were born), Mandy got to sit with Santa, keeping Karla calm for the photo.

Merry Christmas!
