Christmas day

We had a really nice Christmas this year. It was lovely being in our new house and actually having the room to put things like the tree and the Christmas food.

And what a lot of food we had. I'd been buying bits and bobs every week and putting it on top of one of the cupboards in the kitchen so I already had quite a few things. Then one night last week the doorbell rang and on the way to answer it I heard people running and then a car speeding away up the road. I opened the door and there was a rather large hamper full of Christmas food with a note saying it was a gift from all our friends at church. I only just managed to drag it inside as it was rather heavy.

The next day I told Laura about it and she said she had planned to make up a hamper for me too. It's a good job she didn't as we already had enough to feed a small army. In the end she decided to buy me a turkey which she delivered on Christmas eve.

My father also came round on Christmas eve to invite us for Christmas dinner at their house so I'm cooking my turkey today instead.

Levi was so excited I'm amazed he slept at all.
