December Holidays!





We have been EXTREMELY busy for the last two weeks.

After Ouma Bettie passed away we all shot up to Joburg by plane and car to attend her funeral and to be together for a few days as our beach holiday plans were obviously cancelled!

We had a great time together, but the best part was actually just chilling at home together. Quen and I celebrated our 11th wedding anniversary on the 16th Dec - we went to friends for supper without the kids and then caught the 10pm movie! The new James Bond - it was pretty good, but even nicer just being on a date!

We left Ouma and Oupa on the 19th and on the 23rd moved into the house we are house-sitting for a week. It is really wonderful here - 4 bedrooms, HUGE garden and a 8 metre swimming pool! Heaven, I tell you!

Christmas day is over now - the kids are in bed and we can finally just relax - I love Christmas, but am always quite glad that the day is over by the end of all the running around!

We had a great Christmas Eve and Christmas Day - I'm grateful to everyone who makes it so special.

G'night!!!

PS - some photos of our time with Hettie and Thys!
