A quick trip was made to Ballina for Xmas 08. Well...... quick if you are referring to our time there (only 1 week), but not quick if you are referring to the 24 hour trip (door to door) each way. Eloise was a charm on the flight (well as charming as one can be when she only sleeps 40 mins in 16 hours) which started the week on a good note. Tired and exhausted we collapsed into Ballina on Christmas Eve, glad to be in Oz for Christmas.
We had a brilliant time with Duane's parents and Jason, Charmian, Emma & Mel.
Eloise was very taken with her cousins and Nanny & Pop and enjoyed every last second.
The Christmas Tree - Christmas morning.
Eloise was VERY excited that there was a half eaten carrot under the tree. This was way more exciting than all of the presents!
Okay - once we had disposed of the carrot - one started focusing on the presents.
Ooohh....what's in here??
Look at my new hat! (still learning to put them on the right way around)
Eloise with her new swim gear.
Paper everywhere - just as it should be.

Enjoying a christmas ice-cream (in a gluten free cone I might add - we were very excited!)
It isn't Christmas without a silly bon-bon hat
