Christmas Day

Merry Christmas Everyone!

We didn't make the 90km round trip into Port Lincoln for a Christmas service this morning.  We decided to stay here and chat to Tony and Val instead.

Present opening, breakfast, and reading some great books took up the day.  Two books about two different boys who both went to heaven and came back were very inspiring. Heaven is for Real and The boy who came back from Heaven.

We opened some lovely presents from family in Brisbane, and the children had each prepared a secret santa gift for each other, so the van soon filled up with wrapping paper and opened packing.  I went back to bed to read!

It was a cold and overcast old day, though.  Perfect for reading.  I managed to drag myself away long  enough to cook a roast lamb in the frypan and boiled vegetables for lunch.  We had Christmas crackers, but that was as festive as we got.

Late in the afternoon we went for a walk around the bay.  It is light until after 9pm which makes it hard for going to bed!

I think everyone had a lovely, restful Christmas.
