A couple of days ago we went out for lunch with our daughter who was visiting for a week.
We very bravely decided to take our young dog who is almost 8 months old. The express purpose was to take her to the beach for the first time.
I kept her on the lead and she was a bit unsure of what to make of the waves but generally had a good time.
I am sure there will be plenty more beach adventures next summer.
Christmas is over, or in the words of Uncle D, “Well, that’s Christmas buggered for another year!”
I must confess that I was anything but organised this year but I am safe in the knowledge that I will have an opportunity to improve in 2015. I did not even send cards/emails this year but I am planning to do make that a job for the coming week as I am at home and there will be time to make it meaningful correspondence.
We spent time at Caloundra with the family and had a most enjoyable short break.
Decorating the tree which we took with us.
Gifts under the tree and ready to go.
Trying on new hat and sunglasses.
Dressed and ready to go out for lunch.
Everyone is now back at their respective homes in 2 different states. The Duke and I have unpacked and things will gradually return to normal. As always, I am keen make the New Year a great one but more on that another day.
Best wishes to you and yours for Christmas and the New Year.
