Christmas 2012

Travelled to Perth to finally see some real snow for Christmas.  Heather wanted a nice photo of Finn, one that wasn't blurry, so we slowed him down by burying him in a pile of snow.  The kids had a blast and even a brief visit from their cousins who stopped on their way home during a snow storm.  Winter has arrived!

The tree 2012

After waiting weeks and weeks for snow we gave up and decided to cut down our Christmas tree "in the green".  It was a chilly and sometimes rainy day, but we managed to select the perfect specimen.  The kids enjoyed sneaking many many cookies while we attached the tree to the car!

Finn's snowflake concert 2012

Dressed up and full of sugar treats after Finn's cello Christmas cello concert 2012.  Tabi was especially excited as one of the ushers called her an angel!

Some snow!

December 1st.  We finally get some snow.  The kids rush out and try to make a snow man.  It melts by the next morning leaving behind only a carrot nose.
