celebrating Christmas

Our grandchildren are very fortunate, they get two visits from the Father Christmas on the same night.
All our immediate family comes to our house for Christmas Eve and while we are having our meal, "Father Christmas" sneaks in through the back door and leaves lots of presents under the tree.
There was even snow on the floor from his boots! Just as well granddad put some newspaper on the floor!
And  would you believe it, the same night the Father Christmas finds his way to my grandchildren's house and they wake up on Christmas morning to yet more presents!

Christmas Day - we enjoyed the day and Christmas dinner at our daughter's house.

On the way there I took this picture of our valley.
Somewhere in the middle is our house.


We arrived to find two very exited children and just as exited dog, who could smell her present under the tree.


today was time was a quiet walk to recover from the festivities
