My sister planned the food this year. I was responsible for pastries and brioche for brunch. Lunch was salads and glazed ham - perfect for our summer weather.
I think the highlight of Christmas on the farm for the girls was catching yabbies in the dam or yabby lobsters as they call them. We wish they were lobsters. They weren't too bad with some chilli sauce.
I think my highlight was being outside with children in the wading pool. Here is my sister Jane and the hat I made for her.
The quilt turned out beautifully Kate. Isnt it fun to catch yabbies. Our aunt has a dam with them too and the kids love it. Your sister looks very happy with her hat. I think I may have to try out that pattern.
