Time to tackle the turkey - first problem - it wasn't thawed yet (no 2 days in the fridge is not long enough to thaw an 11 lb bird), thankfully he fitted in the microwave though so that was easily remedied - but it meant that it didn't get into the oven till 10:30 am so it was a late lunch for us. But there was plenty to keep us bust in the meantime......playing with all our new toys.
Heres Josh in his superhero outfit - Thanks Aunty Kate.
Lunch was finally ready at about 3 pm - I Was quite impressed with my firsst efforts at a christmas dinner all by myself - slightly overcooked stuffing and the gravy didn't work but apart from that everything was beautiful....especially the Pavlova and pumplin pie and custard for dessert. Mmmmmmm
Grandma and Grandpas presents didn't rock up till Boxing day morning but Lexie certainly didn't mind opening more presents - her only problem was that Josh was asleep when they arrived and we eouln't let her open his presents till he got up. She really wasn't heppy with him for that.

Looks like lots of fun and that Lexie had a ball.
Speaking of presents from Mum and Dad - you have to let me know how the canvas print (which is from Mum and Dad, but I organised since I was doing one for Mum as well) came out.
