a group of firsts

First solids! Not convinced, but it all went down.
First time in orange, note also guarding closely first red tommy picked from garden!
First bath together, Jess was very impressed. No questions asked.
Not sure how this pic got here! Certainly not first vegemite on toast!!

Christmas 2007
Kathy & Wazzas first Christmas at home
From all parts of the state their family did roam
Two faces were missing, now where could they be
No Christmas presents for them were under the tree.

The Turkey was cooked to perfection I see
And veges galore for Christmas Eve tea
Of course we all ate until our tummies near busted
But still managed room for pudding and custard

Christmas morning arrived with excitement and flutter
Cooked breakfast of bacon, eggs, mushrooms in butter
Santa brought stockings for a girl & 3 boys
That begun the procession of too many toys

The presents were dished out by Joelle, & 2 Christmas elves
They were all shapes and sizes from different shop shelves.
We got through the presents, such a big load,
Before Kerry, Gary and Berrett all hit the road

The rest of Christmas day was much of the same,
eating, and drinking and playing the odd game.
So thanks to the Overton’s for such a good time
Good company and wine & the food … sublime!
