more excitement in our little cul de sac

Mark noticed small flames on our neighbour's roof this morning as he backed out of the drive way. So he called 000. The CFA were here within minutes and put the small fire out with an extinguisher. One of their solar panels had caught fire. We had four trucks here at one stage, not that they could all fit in our court! Two were in the court and two were in the street.They were very lucky the panels all didn't catch fire!

Looking forward to our neigbour's figs being ripe and ready for eating! YUM!

It's begining to look a lot like Christmas...

We finally put up the little mantle I made out of scraps left over from the bed head I made for us ages ago, it looks soooo good!

I bought some cute new stockings (at BigW), so now we have a matching set instead of odd socks ;-).

I'm so excited about how it looks! It will be so nice to decorate the mantle for different events and seasons.

Now I can't wait to decorate the table. My parents are coming for lunch on Christmas Day, and then on Boxing Day, my parents, and my brother and his family are coming for breakfast.  I'm looking forward to using our Mini Milk Bottles and Stripey Paper Straws for breakfast smoothies! Can't wait!
