Look what I bought at the Lululemon sale...they fit perfectly and feel great. Pete did well too, spending his Father's Day voucher that the kids gave him.

 

Christmas Day always starts at the beach....

 

Although it wasn't as warm as usual, there was still plenty of happy beach goers in their Christmas hats , holding glasses of champagne. Doesn't our new club house look impressive?

 

It's always nice when one of our offspring can join us and this year it was Chris.

 

Christmas lunch was at our place this year, so I didn't have time to take many photos. I'm hoping Mandy and Tash also took some good shots which I might add to the blog. Here are just a few from the day's celebrations.

 

.....playing Christmas Carols , they weren't always so serious.

 

...the audience...

 

The night before Christmas.....

 

Family outing...it is starting to heat up in Perth so we arranged to meet Tash at the dog beach at South Cottesloe.  The water was very calm and crystal clear, Rusty had a great time.

 

 

 

Pete and I spent the afternoon in Freo , Christmas shopping.

 

Home for Christmas...

 

This morning after our walk and swim, Pauline, Mandy and I explored the new facilities surrounding the new life saving clubhouse. We thought it all looked fantastic. In the above photo is one of the three new restaurants .

 

This is the view from the sun lounges! 

 

My new favourite shopping destination, Claremont Quarter.... Pete and I did some shopping this morning after the beach.

 

A big bowl of a rum based cocktail( the name of which I cannot remember) to share with Cathy and Nat at The Aviary for lunch...celebrating Cathy's birthday in style.
