Flashback - Christmas gift in Newcastle

Christmas is all about food and exchanging gifts..

My girl got a cute fluffy Santa toy from her uncle.
She loves it very much.

I got a photo frame for my SIL's mother.

I bought a pair of cute Christmas ear-rings for my SIL. 
She's beaming from ear to ear. :)

I also got a photo frame in the shape of a surf for my handsome nephew.

I bought wine glass markers for my BIL but he posed them as his ear-rings. :)

The markers are used this way so that people don't mix up their drinks.

This special glass ware for the whole family in Newcastle.
I also bought a portable lighted Christmas tree for them.
Hope they light it every year..

Yea, what did I get?
They gave me a fluffy white sheep skin.
Love it!
Btw, I had a kangaroo skin as my wedding gift from them.

    This is the first time I have seen wine glass markers. Your BIL has such a good sense of humour to wear them as earrings and posing to let you take a photo of him. :)

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
