Christmas 2010

This year was a different kind of Christmas.  It was Vili's first, it was the first time Malachi had some sort of understanding about Christmas ("Christmas is for Jesus' Birthday and Santa brings him presents!"), we were at home, and we weren't with the Houghtons.  So different.

Christmas morning we opened presents.  Then started on preparing our lunch.  The 4 extra guests didn't end up coming so we had more then a ridiculous amount of food.  We had chickens and ham and seafood and Sri Lankin food and pavs and brandy snaps, the list goes on!  After eating we went down to Petone bay and lay in the sun and rode the jetski.  The weather was fantastic and the day was just chill and happy, the way it should be.

Here's a few pics from the day.

 The boys hanging with uncle Andrew.

 Santa's little helper giving out gifts.

 One for him.

 Vili had no idea.

 Mmmmm paper.

 So happy to get presents.

 A toothbrush.  He needs it....

 Checking out his new book.

 I think this was just to make his sister jealous.

 Vili's a little bored by it all.

 Cars from his cousin = happy little guy.

 Smellies.  Yum.

 With some of his loot.

 Vili checking out his stuff.

 
 My little santa boys.

 Beautiful NZ Christmas day.

At the beach waiting for his turn on the jetski.

Our party hats from our Christmas crackers...Vili's was a little big.


Merry Christmas All.

Hmmm that perfume has quite a weird name. Ha.
Man those two are so cute. But the most "excited" about his present goes to your brother. Haha.

I love that Vili is sitting already. Can't wait for this girl to sit on her own and hopefully will give me a break. I'm so sick of holding her....lol.
