Christmas fun!!!

 We had a fantastic Christmas this year..it certainly helped that it was on the weekend and so we did not have to rush things (it is not actually a holiday in Taiwan) On the Friday we had a Christmas party at school. The kids made cookies and Santa arrived.

Maya wanted 'Princess Leia' hair for the occasion...my attempt:)
 
The kids made cookies and then watched a Christmas short while waiting for them to bake. I decided to make an extra batch for teachers so the other teachers joined in.

 Amanda making her first ever batch of cookies.
Santa arrived and at first Maya was very apprehensive..then warmed up when the gifts came out.
Dylan was super excited about Santa and loved the giant bubbles!!
 Saturday morning amongst all the other prep things on the list we had to go and use our giant bubbles:)



 I caught a little elf nibbling on the finished cake:)


 After dinner we played some games..Paul lent us his PS3 for the season....super fun games:)

 
 Time for bed but first cookies and 'dwo dwo' (yoghurt drink) for Santa. (figured after all he's eating on his journey he could do with some probiotic)


WAKE UP it's Christmas!!!!!! First thing Dylan checked was if Santa ate his cookies.
 
 Santa was very nice to us this year:) Later on in the day Andre came and Santa had left him something under the tree too. The kids had fun playing and then it was all over.

 I took these two pics yesterday Maya in a dress her friend Dora gave her and Dylan in the sweater i made him.

Almost Christmas

Almost Christmas and the kids are getting super excited. Looks like we are going to have a chilly Christmas. Here are some piccs from the past few weeks.
 Playing around at the park......





 The kids wrote their letters to Santa so walked down to the post office and sent them off...very excited and counting down the days to Christmas.



 The Christmas tree is up downstairs in our building's garden.... blurry pic but u get the idea:)
 We went on a field trip to the Science museum witht he school...was a perfect day, hardly anyone there....a rare thing:) We went to the interactive science side so lots of touchingandpressing buttons.


 Maya and Angel in the bubble maker.
 Dylan's turn...



 After the trip we went for lunch and Maya loves the dog at the restaurant.
 We went to the museum gardens today and as we drove by we passed Santa crossing the street...the kids were so excited. We cameacross him outside the museum....happiness:))

 Running from the dinosaurs:)
