December...What a month it's been... continued

We had our works Christmas break up at our place on the Sunday before Christmas.
Another fantastic event that went off with a hit.
What can I say more food, fun and laughter.
The sun set put on an awesome display for us.
Christmas day itself was also at my place the family arrived for lunch.

 The family....gotta love them all.

 Josh with my beautiful Niece & Nephew
There was even a tree huger....yes this is my little brother Shannon....
please don't hold that against me.
hehehe
Christmas eve a dear friend of ours ended up in hospital...(sending you my love)
and then on boxing day we woke up to our neighbours cries for help. There house had caught fire. I rang 000 & My family all rallied together so quickly to lend a hand, I'm so proud of you all. Thankfully no one was hurt. Our lovely neighbours had not long moved in it wouldn't of been a month. We have had so much support and calls from the local community as to how they can help it has been very over whelming for them. They do appreciate it all but they are still adjusting to the idea of losing there dream home.
I have passed on every ones love and support to them.

So at the end of the day.....to all out there......please don't sweat on the small stuff, love your family & friends with all your heart, be creative, honest, reliable, caring, dance, sing and most of all be your self.
and remember dreams can always be re made.
BIG CYBER HUGS TO YOU ALL!
I HOPE THAT YOU ALL HAVE A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR

You entertained so many people over several events last month and each looked like a roaring success. You summed it all up - family, friends and good neighbours and the rest just falls into place. Best wishes for 2014.
