Resin -Earrings

I had fun playing with glitter colours and the new stud earring mold!  I think these will make great teacher gifts or stocking fillers :)

Christmas Trees

Well it's coming up to that time of the year again!!  We have a busy December planned, so decided to get the tree down and decorated early!

We brought Clay a new tree this year (we did try and upgrade last year, but we couldn't find one! He was so excited going through all his special decorations :)  I brought him 3x new decorations- Mario, Minecraft and Mickey Mouse.

This year's nutcracker and another ceramic tree - both pink!

Santa Photos 2022

I love this year's Santa photos! No social distancing this year! We got a digital deal with 6 images - perfect!

Santa Parade

Even though we had a late night from the work Christmas party, we were up early and had a treat of Macca's for breakfast before heading off to the shopping centre to see the Santa's arrival/ parade.

The parade went all around the shopping centre so we saw it twice and Clay got to give Santa a high five :)

Clay did photos with this lovely Santa!

The parade party were doing photos, so Clay got a group pic with them :)

Work Christmas Party

The Christmas celebrations have officially begun...we went to my work Christmas party tonight- so much fun!  They decorated it beautifully with lovely personal touches!

The Santa hats had a fruit cake underneath  for each staff member on the tables.

We had a delcious 3 course meal and drinks were covered, so Craig and I had a few cocktails/ alcoholic ginger beers ;)

The kids got presents and chocolate stocking- spoilt!

One of the guys owns a company called Rent-a-Rex and surprised us by bringing in 2 of their puppets!  I don't know who loved it more - the kids or adults LOL 

The kids all played together and the adults spent the evening chatting.  The boss gave a lovely speech, thanking us each individually, we did a group Christmas photo and the office staff were given flowers as a thank you.
