Well, it’s getting to that time of year again! 

We’re being a bit naughty and putting up the Christmas decorations a little bit early this year, even though it’s still just over a week to go until December 1st.

This is the first Christmas where Damian is able to be an active participant, having only been about three months old last year.  Both boys went nuts when we put power to the tree lights, so excited and thrilled – what a great age to enjoy this time of year.

As you may know, we add to the tree each Christmas, a tradition which dates way back to 1999.  We’ve had to cut back on the amount we spend, but we like to keep the custom going in any case.  Without further adieu – 2014’s contributions:

Our first piece of Australiana – an echidna wearing a Santa hat.

We didn’t want the poor guy to be alone, so we added an Emu. 

Finally, a very large and nicely toned bauble completes the mix this year.
