(Optional) Christmas Barbie Number 3

Lily the Dog Barbie number 3. on Boxing Day, was held chez Kerry-Lee and Marek's in Eaton's Hill. Their daughter knows our daughter cause they do ballet together, and Marek is an ex-Brit... they came over about the same time we did.

Eloise and I were the first there so we got to help put up the pergola/sunshade over the paddling pool and to tuck into the Xmas snacks, filling ourselves up very nicely and spoiling our appetites for the hot food.

On Christmas Eve, I may have neglected to mention, we went to a market in Kelvin Grove and got food for to eat and there I procured some carrot cakes and a rare bout of forward thinking. I remembered to bring the carrot cakes, though I did forget the togs, however a spare pair of these was arranged and all was happy.

Most of the other attendees to the barbecue were British or Brit-affiliated, so we talked about the weather.... in Britain... brrr, chilly! we though in the 30 plus degree heat.

Eloise and little Aemilia argued away amiably enough and mostly they were left to it. Eventually the heavens opened and things started to wind down.

It was the first serious heaven-opening of a week of serious heaven-opening. Kind of put a dampener on things really.
