We had a fab Christmas this year. It all went really smoothly, perhaps 'cause we stayed in Oxford, I don't know.
We managed to all get up and dressed with time to spare before church to open presents. Our little church doesn't have anywhere to meet during holidays so we met in the common room at Wycliffe Hall with mince pies and a guitar! For the first time, I really missed Philadelphia and that Christmas morning atmosphere.
We had an early lunch which was our best yet and got cleared up while Joannah was having her afternoon nap. Then, we had party games of musical bumps and charades - our aim to begin a tradition.
Boxing Day we travelled to Tunbridge Wells to visit Rich's mum and step-father and the following day we all went to London to see Rich's sister and family.

Glad you had a great Chrsitmas where everything went to plan! What a gorgeous family photo! Love Natalie xxx
