Our Christmas Feast

Well what a true festive feast we were served at the Marsh's of Tallai. Steve had roasted on his very large barbeque the juciest turkey, a really tender duck, a monster pork roast, and then our glazed ham along with all the vegies, sauces etc. Gail then served us her speciality - a scrumptious huge Christmas pudding!

***** Post dinner drinks and coffee out on the patio

Ann made her first gingerbread house, and I the Christmas tartlets behind

The girls, Auntie Beryl, Patrina (Gail and Steve's eldest daughter), Maddie (Ash and Sue's twin daughter), Ann, Gail, Moi and Sue

A truly super family day

This morning we opened our presents from under the tree - 24 hours after Santa had been - thank you to those generous givers. and today, Boxing Day, we are declining from starting our diet, as the Brig wants to do a large lunch - glazed ham, barbequed eggs, and potato - and I am sure he will throw in some beans as well.

Yes it is still raining, so no walks, we will probably watch the start of the Sydney to Hobart Yacht race at 1 p.m. and right now that "Ash's" cricket match against England is on our box.!!!
