Something about December…

Lights around the tree
Mama’s whistling
Take me back again
Something about December

Christmas is in the air @ Remuera, Auckland
*Christmas cheer @ Remuera, Auckland*

We’re hanging mistletoe
And hoping that it snows
I close my eyes and then
I can still remember
How to get back home

NZ Christmas
*Christmas is in the air @ my friend’s house in Auckland, New Zealand 1*

Let all your memories
Hold you close
No matter where you are
You’re not alone
Because the ones you love are never far
If Christmas is in your heart

Christmas in NZ 2
*Christmas is in the air @ my friend’s house in Auckland, New Zealand 2*

Who really needs a gift
When love is meant to give

Christmas (& birthday) presents to the Wee's...
*Christmas (& birthday) presents from my friend & her family to the Wee’s*

I can still recall
Carry with me always

From Mandy
*Layer cake from Lavender from Mandy*

Every Christmas dream
They live in you and me

From Quay Po
*Christmas presents from Quay Po Cooks*

Let all your memories
Hold you close
No matter where you are

Christmas in NZ 3
*Christmas is in the air @ my friend’s house in Auckland, New Zealand 3*

You’re not alone
Because the ones you love are never far
If Christmas is in your heart

3 wise men
*The Three Wise Men @ Cambridge, New Zealand*

Lights around the tree
Mama’s whistling
Take me back again
There’s something about December

Nativity
*Nativity scene @ Cambridge, New Zealand*

Let all your memories
Hold you close
No matter where you are
You’re not alone
Because the ones you love are never far
If Christmas is in your heart
You’re not alone

A BLESSED CHRISTMAS TO ONE & ALL. MAY THE JOY AND LOVE OF THE SEASON FILL YOUR HOMES & YOUR HEARTS TODAY AND EVERY DAY THROUGHOUT THE COMING YEAR.
