Christmas Day was spent discovering surprises in Christmas stockings and opening the rest of the presents under the tree. We had a couple of visitors in our tent Christmas morning, the boys cousins Ava & Riley.
Our gourmet Christmas dinner consisted of turkey done in the new BBQ oven, pork done in the webber (re-done in the turbo oven), another turkey done by Alister on the open fire, left over ham, plus vegies done in the turbo oven and gravy etc. To be topped up by delicious plum pud courtesy of Lindsay & Fiona.
The last surprise on Christmas morning was to be found out in the trailer.
The boys got a mini bike a little SuzukiJR50. It doesn’t even sound as loud as a lawn mower more like a whipper snipper.
I think Toby thought it was his little yellow bike as he was in on the surprise when Donald went and bought it, and of course he had rides up and down our driveway while the kids were at school.
Sam mastered the bike pretty quickly after thorough instructions by Donald, and was very happy and confident to ride round the paddock bumpy though it was. I think Donald lost a few kilos over Christmas because he was running beside the boys on the bike every step of the way.
It took a little practice on the bicycles first before Ethan built up the courage to go it alone and when he did he kept on going......... Fortunately for us Wayne & Joan’s street was a dead end street with very little traffic coming through so it gave the boys a chance to have a smoother ride.
Exhausted but happy
And of course the big kids got to ride motorbikes too! Wayne, Donald & Campbell went for a ride so Donald could try out Campbells bike. All of the brothers and Wayne went for a few early morning rides around Gatton, Toowoomba area. And Lisha (that’s me) got to play around on Alisters bike, which is on it’s way down to Sydney as we speak to be my new bike.
