Santa's everywhere!


How is Santa everywhere?? How does he do it? Well, if you're the Santa that was paid to go to the ABC Daycare - you didn't show up and one of the teachers had to fill in!

Yeap, the above pic is one of the teachers, Milly.
She had to fill in for Santa when he bailed on the kids. The kids didn't seem too concerned as they all got a new book!


And Shamus loves his new "Belmont and the Dragon" book.

We've been going to a lot of Christmas parties the last couple of weeks. Either with my work, Darryl's, or the daycare. Friday was Darryl's party - there was the family Christmas party in the afternoon followed by the "18 or older" party that night.
THQ does a great job of entertaining the kids. The party was in a park in Kangaroo Point and there was lots of fun for the kiddies. And Santa showed up for real this time!
Breagha was a beautiful reindeer.
(keep this picture in mind when you look at the last pic:)

Breagha fighting me with her balloon sword while Shamus had his face painted.

Of course it's Spiderman! Doesn't matter if it's Christmas...it's all about the superheros!!

Thank you for the surprise visit and toy Santa Claus! We promise to be good!!

After the party, the kiddies and I headed home - because we had 2 cats coming over for the holidays! Very exciting! We are looking after Kate and Morgan's 2 cats while they are away. And we are really enjoying them! Shamus was a bit nervous on Friday night but by Saturday morning he was great. Don't worry Kate - the kitties are doing very well!

So, only a couple of days and Christmas will be here! I hope everyone is ready.
We had a slight issue on the weekend that put us a bit behind, but we're all good now. Our wonderful fridge decided to stop working. So, we were fridge shopping. Not the best time of year to fridge shop as the stores are super busy and the delivery trucks are full! Luckily our new fridge arrives tomorrow! Can't wait!! It is quite exciting to have a new appliance. The only new appliance we've ever had was our washer/dryer in Montreal and we didn't get to enjoy them for very long!

Now, I leave you with 2 pics of Breagha. Why? Just because I had a good laugh when I saw her and I want to share that laughter!
This was Breagha on the weekend...Shamus has new swimming goggles and Breagha decided to try out his old ones...
She went out and about like this - to the grocery store with me! Pretty funny.

And then back home - where she wore her doll's dress on her head.
Breagha has the BEST imagination!!! She wears a facecloth on her head and somehow it's a costume! I love it. She makes me laugh every day.
