it's beginning to feel alot like xmas....

This will be our first xmas in this house, we finally got round to getting the tree last weekend, we thought we had got a real bargain having paid $10 less than the price on it, only to find when we got home that the trunk was kinda bent which meant the tree didn't really sit straight....not recommended. Oh well...we put it up and I put my xmas cd on and started to decorate it, was having a lovely time , in between sneezing fits!

Actually.....I have noticed that everyone's hayfever seems to be on the increase since the tree arrived, could just be purely coincidence as I am sure it is because it couldn't possibly be the tree!

Anyhow....there we were again, in the lounge, Brent and I (girls are up in their caves on their computers) watching a movie when, you guessed it......the tree came crashing down!!!!

What is it with this house that everything must come crashing down, can't just fall over quietly, no, has to make a big scene and a big mess. All the decorations came flying off, tree hit the couch on the way down but thankfully, this time round nothing got broken. I was so thankful the decorations didn't break as alot of them were Aunty Jacqui's so they are extra special.

So we stood the tree back up, mopped up the water that had spewed out all over the place and left the tree bare for a few days until I could muster up the strength to start over with it again.....no xmas songs this time, can't seem to find the cd again.....funny that?!?!?!?

I have also made the first pavlova for the year, just had to do a trial one to see if I still liked them, seems I do!!!
