Xmas day – P365 Dec25

For christmas lunch today we visited Naomi's brother, Nathan. The company was the same as yesterday, minus the kids ;) As is typical of Nathan, the food was spectacular, as were the contributions from Rachel and Naomi. Desert was also a highlight. After lunch it was off to my sister's place for dinner with my side of the family and a special surprise for our nieces: For the last couple of weeks, we've been building a puppet theatre for the girls with the help of our friend Angus, who did the woodworking. We designed, prepared, painted and decorated the theatre, and I personally designed and made the curtains which work with a draw-string. An achievement for which I feel some pride :) The girls absolutely loved it, and despite our concerns that they might have a little trouble with the puppet theatre concept, they got right into the spirit of things with the four puppets we gave to them with the theatre.
