There really is nothing better than sharing Christmas Day with the people you love and yesterday was very, very special as we got to share in Marlowe's first Christmas Day. She looked so cute in her snowman dress with snowflake tights and I don't think our house has ever heard so much laughter as it did when she unwrapped her little baby mirror and kept kissing herself. That was just absolutely priceless.
Ruby arrived in a very glamorous outfit of a net skirt with tights and silver sparkly shoes which looked even better when she wore her pink beehive wig that was top of her wish list.
After lunch we all....males included.....had to visit Ruby's Salon to have our make up done. She had asked for make up so that she could be like Mummy and we obliged and added her own vanity case and set of brushes. She was over the moon.
Dinner was rather later than it should have been. The oven was stuffed to the gills and struggled to cope but we got there eventually.
I am giving it a well earned rest today and we will just have cold meats and cheeses with pickles, salad and freshly baked baguettes.....and we will be complete slobs and eat in front of the telly while we watch some Mr Whicher dvd's that we got for Andy.
I hope you all had as lovely a day as we did.

Sounds like yesterday was as near perfect as you will ever get and today sounds much like my own, we are having homemade coleslaw and jacket potatoes with our cold meats and cheeses.

DeleteSounds a perfect day Sheila. Children really do make it special don't they. Would loved to have seen all the men after their visit to Ruby's salon :)
ReplyDeleteLet's just say that you wouldn't have wanted to meet them up a dark alley. They looked like something out of a horror movie....lol-x-
