This is not a regime for the weak as anyone in Australia who is involved in clubs, schools or their community would know. I know we can't do much about the weather being so unfriendly when there is so much to do, but I do believe that the Northern Hemisphere may be onto something in that they can celebrate Christmas without trying to contend with all the end of school year celebrations as well.
Meanwhile, I will continue to enjoy all that comes with December in Australia...
How do you bring in the end of the year?
Is your calender in danger of falling off the wall from excessive use like mine?
Roll on holidays!

Thankfully my December isn't as crazy as yours - just a little busy.
ReplyDeleteOh Kate...look at your kids. Anna is the most adorable ballerina, sheep and elf! How exciting to be singing at the train station too! We have probably participated in a quarter of the things you guys are involved in and even that has seemed hectic! But, good on you for getting involved and making the most of it. Bring on the holidays too I say x
ReplyDeleteYour kids look so gorgeous. What a lovely post. My calendar is exploding. I am threatening to collapse with it all.
