Sunny Boxing Day

Mum took us surfing on the day after Christmas.  In England they call the day -  Boxing Day.  In Ireland they call it - St. Stephen's day.

In Tarifa it was simply .. sunny surfing day ....  :)

We met Roderick on the beach ...

..  Hold on I'll get you	.. got you ...
Oh oh!  The wave's pulling you ...	Ahhgh!  Gone!   ;)

Christmas Day

On Christmas day we were SO lucky!  (Mum says Spoilt!)
In the morning .. .we got Presents from Santa: Presents from Los Reyes: Presents from Mum and presents from Dad!

In the afternoon we had a lovely dinner with Danielle cooked by the Mums -  Gary and Danielle's mum. Afterwards we had big cuddles and TV. Ahh what a lovely day!     Thank you

Lego, Skates, Bakugan, Transformers ...	Yumm!
Guy Time with Gary	Christmas chicas - Danielle

Scootin' Christmas Eve

During the day .. one of Santa's more unconvincing helpers gave us some "chuches"

.. that night, while the adults were inside getting warm on something strange called Gluwein we were outside running through the town.  It was awesome as nobody was around, so we ran through all the streets until Midnight.  Then we had to rush home so santa wouldn't catch us up past our bed time!

Hayley, Troy, Roderick, Rufus and Vincent	More trouble!

No Snow!

December's not so warm in Tarifa ... but we're still making it to the beach! We've just had a big storm and it's the closest we'll get to Snow. The sand's everywhere. :)

Need a tow truck for my scooter.	It's strange to think that a while ago we were sitting here in just our shorts!
The sun's trying to sneek through.	See it looks sort of snowy!

Party of Light

Maisy, Lilia, Sam and our favourite babysitter Oliver, left Tarifa. So Bruno's mum Carol organised the coolest party for them. Bonfire down by the beach and fire lanterns out over the sea. The boys went crazy and Hayley loved it so much she said it was like being in heaven and that it was that happiest day of her life! So it's safe to say it was a success! We'll miss them, but like everyone who comes to Tarifa - they'll be back one day. The pictures are very blurry.

The beach in December

It was such a warm day.   Even though the waves were so big - nothing would stop Hayley!   Troy decided to chill out on the beach instead -  he said they weren't the right type of wave for him!
