Christmas 2006

Well it was Philip's first New Zealand Christmas and my first Christmas back home so it was a bit special this year!! We went out to Mum and Dad's Christmas Eve and stayed through till the 27th. It was a big day this year as we had both Mum and Dad's side of the family with us at different points during the day.

Here's the tree at our flat, even though the place is tiny I insisted on getting a real tree!

Down on the Farm

We spent our first few weeks back in NZ staying with Mum and Dad at Karaka on the farm, which was a complete change to busy London!!
