Christmas Winter Wonderland

December is here and with it the dreaded Christmas Season… Yes I said dreaded… And if you know me you will also know I am not really a very Christmassy sort of person. Don’t take me wrong, I like the whole getting family and friends together thing and like anyone I like giving and receiving presents… but there is something about the whole season that just puts me off… Actually there are quite a few things that put me off… but that’s not what this post is all about!

Believe it or not, I am talking FUN today!! :)

We’ve been planing today for about a week (and by we, I really mean Vic) and we woke up with the prospect of going ice skating at Hide Park’s Winter Wonderland. And I was looking forward to teach TB to fall on his ass slide graciously over the ice… just when we got there it was sold out… that and the circus thing…

Not to worry… there was still plenty to do… and wit that we’ve spent a whole afternoon of indulging ourselves.

At some point of the afternoon was called a grumpy old man for complaining of queues, pain in my knee, expending too much money (You gotta agree that £16 in pick and mix is A HELL OF A LOT)…

My response to that? It is all part of the Pires Xmas Tradition! :)

zya!

So nice to see Tommy happy with his parents around… that’s what life is about: a lovely and living family. I can’t wait to see my second grandson (taking the 2 girls out of scenary for now)… next year he will be having the same fun his brother is having today. God bless you all, my children! Smooch!
