Christmas & New Year

It is back to school tomorrow for us both. The end of our 3 week Christmas break. I had the intentions, clearly, to post sooner about Christmas and New Year but of course got caught up in relaxing, having fun with Cristi and everyday living. Therefore, in order to not leave it any longer than it has already been I've decided to go for the old favourite of photo storytelling - it's more fun that way anyway! This Christmas has been good but hard and really emotional! However, Cristi's joy throughout the holiday season has been wonderful and I am so thankful for his happiness and the happiness he brings to me. Here's a look at our Christmas and New Year......
Christmas Eve: Shoebox delivery to the Balla family
Little Anita slept through our entire visit!
Hanging the stockings on our fireplace :)
Wishing he was in my arms
Christmas Day: Oh the excitement as we looked to see if Santa has been!
The favourite gift - good ol' Santa
Christmas day fika with my Marghita family
Feliz Navidad - We like to change it up in our house. Last year we had Chinese food this year Fajitas!!
Boxing Day: Christmas party (and shoebox madness) at the institution
New Years Eve: Me and my ninja bodyguards - dressing up for Chinese at the Bjork household
Dumplings and noodles eaten from a floor table - yummy & authentic!
New Years Day: Carrying on the educational eating theme we hosted an Indian meal at our place on New Year's Day
It was really scrummy!!

Of course the best bit about the meal was that we ate it with our hands. The boys thought this was a fantastic idea - even my sticky hating child got in there!
What's New Year's without a sparkler?!
