A huge congratuations to you, Leonie and your family! You're doing great, and we're proud of you! All the best for your family.

Christmas Craft Night


Last night we all headed up to Julia's to get into some more creativity. Julia found this cute little angel in the Aussie WW Mag and it's pretty easy to make, and not too fiddly.

Even those girls who thought they weren't creative enjoyed it. Everyone's angels turned out beautifully!! (Check out the album of the rest of the photos - See on the RHS 'Albums'.)

What a cute little gift for your daughters, nieces, & Grandmas!

We were spoiled with Julia's lovely coffee's and a divine Cookies & Cream Cheesecake! Yummy! We're almost at the end of 2009 for WM, and I'm already looking forward to hanging out with you all next year!

Christmas Traditions

Christmas is a great time for making fun & meaningful family traditions. Traditions give children a sense of belonging, and also something to look forward to that is special, besides just presents.

We have put together a list of some traditions that we co-ordinators do, and others we WANT to do! Download it on the RHS under 'Calendar & Handouts'.

We made Christmas balls out of pretty paper. These can be made using last years Christmas cards, photos... The possibilites go on. See the album to the RHS for more photos of our craft session, and the YUMMY food we had for morning tea.

This last photo is a picture of a Ball made by Maria using photographs. What a great job she's done. Zanda now has his own personalised decoration for his first Christmas.
