I am so happy that Chris and Michelle are here in Perth for Christmas....(they are making hummus, and it was delicious!)

Today I went with Tash, Will and Ethan to Jeremy's work children's party. Above is the foyer of the QV1 building....spectacular.

Such an enormous tree...

Spotting the diggers below...from the 37th floor...

This amazing lady was painting the faces of the children.. Will decided he'd like a digger painted on his arm.....

Jeremy's work mate Danika took this photo of the five of us...I think we all had a good time, I certainly did.

Jeremy escorted us down to the ground floor as we were leaving.. a final play with the enormous Christmas tree.

If it isn't diggers, it's trains....

Final bookclub meeting tonight for my young book club....here is the book mark of the titles of the books that we have read this year....My favourites are Educated, Cat's Eye, Where the Crawdads Sing and A Gentleman in Moscow.

Catching up on some sewing...not a lot you can do when it is 40 degrees outside.

I really missed this little fellow while I was away...he loves his snacks and his books...

Brothers...

Ethan has the best smiles, his whole face lights up.

Decorating the Christmas tree...

While I was flying back to Perth,  Pete was cutting our tree and bringing it home in my car....

What a great tree eh?!

The Story bridge....Michelle and I did a little sight seeing today...stopping for coffee and lunch...

Some of the newer buildings in the CBD.

A lovely old bandstand in the Botanic Gardens.

And after all the walking Michelle and I decided to have a pedicure....sooo nice.

Good friends...
