Happy Christmas friends.
I'm blogging from my parents house. They live on the eastern outskirts of Melbourne and we've just had a lovely afternoon of food, presents and laughs.
Last night we had a quiet evening at home watching Christmas Carols on TV, sipping champagne and eating cheese while wrapping presents.
V's Dad and brother came for a Christmas brunch of french toast and fruit this morning. Then it was out here for lunch of roast pork, vegetables and icecream Christmas pudding for lunch.
This afternoon we're calling in on a couple of friends and tonight are dining with V's mother and her family. I think we're having prawns and chicken.
Today is around 30 degrees celcius so we're all in our shorts and Tshirts - probably a little warmer than some of your Christmas days.
Tomorrow we head down the Western coast of our state to visit one of the Livingroomers who is down in Warnambool working on her family farm over the summer. A couple of other livingroomers join us the day after for some fun on the beach. Its beautiful down there so it should be a relaxing and fun weekend.
Anyway - that is Christmas Aussie style - hope your day is as full of good times as ours has been so far. Peace to your and your family.

Ok.. it's official... Darren is an Addict! No computer, it's Christmas, and yet he still manages a post. I think there's another 'blog idea' here. :)

Merry Christmas Darren, from Charlotte, North Carolina, USA!
Gretchen and I are on a Christmas safari which will cover two cities and three families.
While the family is quietly resting after opening presents and days of feasting, I can get on the net and send greetings to fellow bloggers.
Have a good time at the beach!

I'm glad to hear that your Christmas was a joyous one, Darren! Ours was great filled with family, children, much laughter, and most importantly, celebration of the coming of our Savior!
Peace to you as well!

Merry Christmas from central Illinois, USA! We had a sunny, upper-30s Fahrenheit Christmas... no snow for us. But this allowed us to see one of the most beautiful sunsets the world has seen over this place - the flattest place on earth.
