Looks like you both had a great Christmas! Any snow outside? Almost snowing here yesterday it got a bit cold in wee Nelson (well maybe not that cold!). Hope you had a great one. Kurt & Rach.

A great time was had by all! Have just had the catchup on blog! Those orphans were very well catered for I think.
