candle light, favourite stars and roses..............
perfect ambiance for all the rapid unwrapping of gifts!!
And each year the ones the children bring are more interesting and imaginative!
And today everyone seemed happy and grateful and just glad to be home.
We had enormous fun at lunchtime 'Skyping' David in KL, with the laptop at his place at the dining table we almost felt he was having it all with us............and there were all the silly antics as though he had never been away!
Still would be nice to hug the real person!
Hope you all had a good day!
Lovely to see David & just at the perfect time !! We have just Skyped Anthony & Jo. They are staying at a friends house so was able to see Max so clearly for the first time since I saw him at 7 months old, their reception at their own house is not good ! Glad you enjoyed your day !

Lovely and even if reception isn't best just seeing little gestures and movements that you had forgotten about makes it all so real! Glad you were able to talk to them- makes the day complete!
Sallie - I hope you are now chilling out as are we here. It's been a lovely day at Howff with all Geoff's family. So glad you caught up with David - we Skyped Geoff last year offshore - not the same but better than phone alone. x

Thank you Carla and Judith!
