Christmas Lights

On Sunday, we took Jaydon for a drive around the streets of Mandurah to have a look at the houses which had been decorated with Christmas lights. He told us we couldn't go until it got dark. "That means I will be going to bed late". Very cluey. We went up to Meadow Springs and the first house we saw wqas just awesome. I think they had every light possible. Jaydon loved it and even more because the owners were handing out lollypops and he got one. So from then on, he thought every house we went and had a look at would give him lollypop. "I don't think so." Then we went and had a look at the canals opposite where the castle water gardens used to be and the port mandurah canals. Just the first entry. We parked the car in vacant block and went and sat on the jetty's. There were so many people out and about. Those that lived on the canals the boats and people doing the same as us. Jaydon loved it.

Then last night we went and had a look at the same houses on the canals on a boat. Mum and dad's friends who were staying with mum and dad for the week took us out on their boat. AFter dinner, when we told Jaydon we were going to go on the boat, he was so excited. He didn't stop talking and asking questions. SO you can imagine the noises while on the boat. Kaitlyn was exactly the same. She should have been asleep but because of Jayden's excitement, no chance. We all had a lovely night. Then home to bed. I wish my kids would sleep in. 6:15am on the dot. I suppose I shouldn't complain considering it is usually before 6am. Oh well, a great two nights. Another late night tomorrow as well when we go and see the fireworks down on the foreshore. Luckily they have a 9.00pm session. Then no more late nights for a year. Don't have any photo's to show you yet. But when I get them, will post them to show you.

Happy new year to you all. Speak soon
