Christmas

Once we got back to Montgomery via Publix for some milk and bread it was home for a welcome cup of coffee and some toast before opening our Christmas presents under the tree.

Everyone was very pleased with everything and had soon disappeared off to build Lego/play with with dolls/doze. I chose the doze option and vegged out in front of the fire whilst Nick edited all the holiday photos.

Having made the decision not to cook a Christmas meal (very wise) it was baked potato's and cold sliced ham for dinner before packing Tom and Lily off to bed at 7pm, closely followed by me at 8pm. Nick managed another hour (I think) before getting to bed around nine o clock. I have to say I was amazed at Tom as he had hardly any sleep on the plane, dozed for a bit in the car and carried on happily until 7, I had to nap during the day as I could barely keep my eyes open, having said that I got no sleep on the plane and then drove most of the way home before calling time and getting Nick to finish the journey. I got woken up at 6.30 when Nick's alarm clock went off as he had to go into work for the morning. Tom finally woke up around 9am after a marathon sleep and now we are all just lounging around and tidying everything up (well, some of us are tidying, others - Lily - are not.)
