Home@Stirling - Christmas Eve

 above: Jules make believe that he is a techie guy with 2 laptops... James always the nice one...listens to his brother yapping away like some expert. Jade looks on her 2 brothers with little interest.

 In case you are wondering, I bought Jade's santarina dress from Qoo10, a shop called Homie.

 I think my little jade makes drinking water so yummy!

Soon, the whole extended family arrives - grandparents from both sides of the family, cousin, helper and siblings.

YAY! my set up of party cube cheese, baked veggies on top of spinach leaves...the dressing is all DIY, really easy - 1 tablespooon of olive oil, vingar, 4 tablespoons of sugar, salt and pepper. Yup.

 my seafood stew

 hubs cutting up the roast beef first.

here's what I bought from Cold storage, self collected at 12noon... Roast beef, game hen, sausages and honey baked ham. It was a sumptous feast!

 the roast beef was actually really nice...

 and it was present giving time.

 Jules...wanted to take a photo of all his christmas presents.

my dad bought the kids a tepee... and both my dad and hubs set up the tent for the boys to sleep overnight in the living room. But it didn't happen...because Jules complained that James talked too much before sleep and that they didn't have enough leg room to stretch their legs and hands.

spoilt in short.

 Jade playing peek-a-boo with the window

 as you can see, she is just as excited with the tent like her 2 brothers.

last but not least. something from hubs. thank you darling. 

a much needed wallet.
