Christmas decorations in the city...I did a little shopping in my lunch hour.

 

Home made panforte...a gift from Jackie ....that we each received this evening at our bookclub dinner. 

 

Adrienne, Jane, Dani and I  ...Jeremy took a few photos for me, and in not one were all four of us looking at the camera ...thanks to Dani and Jane being silly!! T'was a pleasant afternoon.

 

Margot, Marjolijn, Maree, Mandy, Julie, Juliet and Pauline enjoying breakfast this morning after the beach. Aren't we lucky!

 

Tonight was Natasha's final concert at Trinity. Here she is conducting the year 6 boys. I am happy with the photo because I think it really conveys their abundant enthusiam for music and performance...she was very proud of her boys and I am very proud of her.

 Today was the  Christmas Party at the golf club..the theme this year was "gruesome"..and surprisingly it was a great success. Above is a photo of Judith, Anne, Robyn and Marjolijn, they took out 1st and 2nd prize in the dress-up competition.

 

I thought Jane and Jane looked fabulous as Wednesday Adams.

 

The club room looking rather festive.

 

Marjolijn and I ...we played golf in our costumes as well, thankfully only 9 holes.

 

This evening was our final night at Bookclub , my original bookclub...I always make a bookmark using  the covers of the books we did for the year...it was a particularly good year for good reads this year I thought.

 

Tasha's friend Steph snapped this terrific photo of her dear little son Caleb and Tash.....it is always a treat to receive photos in my inbox from my family.
