Merry Christmas! (and a video)


So we didn't actually plan to post a Christmas message on the blog, but this happened and I thought you might like to see words coming out of my mouth (just as if I were a real person!)






Mink hid behind the water heater all day. He is a Grinch.


Man slays turkey!

The first Christmas dinner I have cooked all by myself, including a turkey!


Post-lunch.

I love your Christmas video complete with Christmas crown! Your dinner looks amazing- I can't believe that is your first time doing the whole thing. I hope y'all had a fabulous day!!

How sweet to see you in a video! I know this is going to sound silly because I know where you grew up, but I was surprised not to hear a New Zealand accent! Merry Christmas, belatedly! xo

Scribbles said...

Awww you guys are too cute! Did our Christmas card to you arrive on time?

Holly said...

Looks like you had a great day! I love your little NZ blackboard on the wall! :D

Aww poor Mink. He looks cold. And he is much cuter than the Grinch. :)

Merry Xmas! And what an interesting accent, both British and slightly kiwi!

Cel said...

And wow congrats on having cooked this meal! I think I'd surrender if I had to cook a turkey lol.

Thanks so much, everyone!

Anna Marie - exclamation point! Hee hee.

Scribbles - it did, thank you so much!

And I'm glad to know that it wasn't just Mink who was rendered Grinch-y by Christmas day.

Awww, what a cute video! My family also opened Christmas crackers with crowns and riddles/jokes. I got a hair clip as my toy.

Cinnamon Wren said...

Hi there! This may sound completely vacuous, but I would love for you to do a post about how you style your hair, it always looks amazing!

Swinging Chelsea said...

You should post more videos. Your accent is hot!! Hahaha. My cat went a bit berserk during our Christmas dinner because he wanted attention =P

Ivy Black said...

How lovely!
Happy New Year.x

Wallspank - I'm so sorry for the late reply! You know, there isn't really much to tell (and thank you for the compliment) - most of it is in the cut. I just curl the front bits with tongs so that they wave more evenly, and straighten the fringe.
