Christmas Day December 2021 a game of Cricket on the Green - just one family playing more people joined in later.
2nd photo Miss E on Christmas Day looking for wee fish in Little River and yes, she found some.
Hope these two video have come out alight - don't often do videos but wanted to give them a try.
A few videos of the two grandchildren who were on holiday with us at Christmas time December 2021.
Miss E loves slime, so she is adding glitter to her slime she is making.
Miss E and Mr Z
It's hard to believe but my husband was putting away the outside umbrella into the shed when he saw 'eyes' peeking at him when he put down the umbrella. With these 'peeking eyes' came a body as big as a mouse, that body and eyes landed on the floor of the shed, shook itself and flew off into our barbecue area attaching itself to a top corner of that covered in area then it flew away - so what was it?
A clue, something we don't see here in suburbia and something I've never ever seen in Tasmania, Australia..Just have a guess and I'll tell you next post..
That must have been an interesting sight to see the glittered slime. both videos worked fine. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the videos work fine - thanks Bill..
DeleteGlittered slime looks better than plain slime.
Hopefully blogger will allow my comment through this time.
ReplyDeleteLove your photos of a very Australian Christmas. The videos worked well.
A bat? I will be looking forward to your reveal.
EC you had a problem with blogger before when commenting, it's such a nuisance for you however I admire your patience trying again to comment - thank you...yes will answer next post :)
DeleteYes, a typical Australian Christmas.
Se ve, que lo están pasando bien y de eso se trata las vacaciones.
ReplyDeleteBesos
Christmas and holidays come together usually down here due to it being summer time...such fun.
DeleteThe videos are good. Christmas Day cricket is such a tradition for many, as is an after dinner nap for some. Yes, it must be a bat. I'm surprised you have never seen them.
ReplyDeleteHave only seen bats on the big Island, never seen one here in Tasmania Andrew.
DeleteUsually Christmas Day cricket is held on the oval at the park - not really an oval but it will do. The children play cricket, parents snooze then wake up and join in the cricket match...always cricket in our street when the children were much younger.
What a lovely post, enjoyed learning about your traditions. And I can't wait to learn what your surprise guest was :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Denise..Monday for the answer to my surprise.
DeleteA really fun Christmas, I would say. Both videos are fine, Margaret.
ReplyDeleteMuch fun. Thanks re the videos..
DeleteA wonderful Christmas for the family. The videos turned out very well. I am curious to know what it your uninvited guest that got away.
ReplyDeleteMonday for the answer Nancy :)
DeleteBats get a bad rap-- In the 30 years we've lived in our house, we've twice had a bat decide to come in. I got them in a small fish net and sent them back to the great outdoors. We experienced a warm Christmas day's walk on the beach in Southern California one year. The main thing is you all had a really good day.
ReplyDeleteBats are not my favourite creature at all, I would nearly die if one got in the house :)
DeleteThe thing is, 'did you enjoy you Christmas walk on the beach', I'm sure you did...yes, we had a wonderful day thanks.
It was a merry Christmas with everyone.
ReplyDeleteThe videos are great.
Greetings Irma
It was Irma and thank you...the videos were taken with my phone.
DeleteGostei de tudo o que vi.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e bom fim-de-semana.

Thank you Francisco.
DeleteCould it have been the elusive Tasmanian Devil!
ReplyDeleteNo, that's not right - just realised that you said it flew away!
DeleteYou made me stop and think then Rosemary :)
DeleteChristmas time, holidays and summer are the perfect combination to spend pleasant moments for the whole family, but especially for children. The videos are very good.
ReplyDeleteI was curious to know what animal your husband saw. Could it be a bat?
Monday for the answer Maria.
DeleteChildren love Christmas as you say, the presents from Santa I guess and of course there is a lot more to Christmas as we know :)
I am sure that we could all enjoy making slime! It's one of the great things about having grandchildren that you can do all kinds of silly stuff! As for the mystery creature - a flying fox perhaps?
ReplyDeleteYes we can do all kinds of stuff because of grandchildren and often those things are things we never had when we were children..
DeleteMonday David for the answer.
Приятно смотреть на такие видео. Дети - это чудо! Мне понравились и фото. Всего доброго Вашей семье!
ReplyDeleteThank you. The children entertaining themselves instead of being entertained.
DeleteA Day In The Life - Way Cool Margret
