Family time at Christmas
Hello everyone!!
I do hope you’ve all had a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year – I had a wonderful time visiting my parents and sister over Christmas and New Year and it was great for my parents to have all their children together there which hasnt happened in a very long time – not since my little sister was married and thats some 20 years ago! It was a shame that not all the grandkids could be there but most of them were which was great.
Here’s some family photo’s to share ….
Dont you just love Caitlyn’s smile?? It had nothing to do with me tickling her back
Emily always has the loveliest smile although she doesnt like having her photo taken – I’m glad she didnt cover her face with her hands in the family shots.
Here’s one of my favourites of my sister Jo and myself. 
If you are on as one of my facebook friends you’ll recognise this one as my profile picture – funny thing is that it’s Jo’s facebook profile picture too!
Here’s a picture of my parents and their kids.
We are pretty well spread out ….
- Jenny (in the red on the left) lives in Sydney’s west
- David (the one with the shiny head) lives in Brisbane in the Redlands area (hope I got that right and I’m sure he’ll tell me if I havent!)
- Leonie (yup dats me
) in Sydney’s South West – Macarthur area as “South West” of Sydney can be anywhere from Newtown to Bowral!
Jo (on the far right) lives in Cobden next to Mum & Dad and teaches in Warrnambool
Now here’s the whole clan (minus a few Queenslanders)
Thanks for stoppin by

















Looks like you had a FAB time Leonie…and perhaps have snapped some scrapbooking opportunities!! They all look like such a happy-go-lucky bunch..it’s such a pity you get together so infrequently. Here’s hoping that the next time all the parents and kids get together won’t be 20yrs in the making. TFS such a wonderful time.
Thanks ao much for sharing your family with us – lovely to be able to see them – can put faces to names now!
Christmas time is always a good excuse to get the whole clan together! Is it something to do with the name but my Emily (16yo) doesn’t like her photo too, although she is so beautiful and doesn’t really believe it! Her smile and eyes just light up her face!
