New South Wales Christmas

 Cam & I headed to Sydney to hang out with his family for Christmas. We had such a relaxing time, it was amazing...loosing track of what day it was, what time it was, and not having to be anywhere. I completely forgot about work, as did everyone. We began the trip with a walk along the harbor, just C, me & MacGurkey (check out the bump in my belly, don't worry, there will be closer photos).

 After lunch with Cam's mom, MaryEd, we headed to Bowral to visit Nick and Cam's cousins. Here's Amelia feeding their new pet lamb.

 I wanted to go to the park with them, so we mounted up on scooters & took a picnic. It was a fair walk and we were gone for 1.5 hrs. Just enough time for a Christmas delivery and Prue to wrap some presents at home. Here's the gang on the way there.

 Some of my favorite childhood games involve lots of imagination and can easily be adapted for different age groups. I introduced "statues" where a shopkeeper tries to sell to one player a variety of statues that come to life when touched. It can be very comical, depending on the shopkeeper and the statues. Roles rotate as statues are purchased. Only challenge: 5 player minimum.

We stopped overnight in Bowral and had a wonderful evening and next day with the family. Then we drove on down to the farm where we spent the majority of Christmas. Next post will be a lead up to Santa. Stayed tuned & HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Speaking of the new year, C & I spent ours putting together a photo book of our honeymoon. We know how to rock the night/year away!
