Merry Christmas!

Just want to say that I hope everyone has had a wonderful Christmas and that you are enjoying spending time with family, friends and eating lots of good food.
We celebrated Swedish Christmas yesterday in Ale with Adam's brother and family, mum and dad, my brother with family, cousin Andreas and Karin and of course Maggi and Åke. They day went really well. Åke had organised some fun games for us when we arrived, we had a great Christmas lunch, Santa came with lots of presents for all of us, and we also had time to just relax and enjoy the day. The only negative for me was that my camera stopped working the day before Christmas. I still can't believe that it has happened, I use my camera SO much and now it almost feels like not having a mobile phone, or even worse. Still don't know what's wrong with it but I will look in to it.
Today we celebrated Christmas the Australian way. After a week with not sleeping much I was lucky to get a looon sleep in until 10am. It was amazing and something I really needed. In the later morning we opened all the Christmas presents from Australia etc. We got some great things from Jane and John, thank you so much!!
Adam cooked a delicious lamb dish for lunch for all of us, he did a great job! Later in the afternoon Maria, Andreas and the kids came over for a drink and to let the kids play. A very nice way to spend the day.

Thank you everyone for all the nice presents we got! Jakob loves all his presents, he loves the games he got and the lego (duplo), he sleeps in his new pyjamas, he slept with his new helicopter in bed last night, and tonight he wanted his new tractor in bed. He can't stop playing with his drill and the other tools that he got, and he can't wait to try his new skiis. Maybe tomorrow we will let him try them.
I borrowed a small camera from Maria and Andreas so hopefully I can add a few photos to the blog in a few days, even though it is just not the same without my own beautiful camera :-(
