Aburrow Christmas 2012...

 Nan decided to have Christmas at the farm this year.......
 
she hired a marquee....
 
all the 28 family came :)
 
it was a perfect day for it....
 
 there was a big queue for the delicious food prepared by everyone..........
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
the under 25's  27's had their own table....






followed by the 'oldies'.......... nan and papa at the head of the table...
 
 
 
and then it was on to a very competitive cricket match between the Aburrow's and Henson's....
 
 
youngest goes first....
 
 
 
 
the fielders....

 
 
hubby had a runner....he's a bit sore and sorry today even tho....lol
 

jac directing everyone lol 
 
 
 

 
aunty Julie was roped in too....

 
 
A***L said he had never played cricket , he was the best bowler and not a bad bat.....
 
and he got a hat trick lol....
 

 
I think the Aburrows won in case you are wondering....
 
and then it was onto presents and Papa Claus needed the two youngest this year....
 
you can see our littlest one takes his job seriously...

 
and then I got sick of taking photos and we all  ate prawns, salad, more pinwheels and all the delectable deserts as well as  a few baileys
 
 I am very lucky to have married into this wonderful family........ 
 
all in all, it was a beautiful way to celebrate Christmas.
 
I hope yours was just as lovely xoxoxo

Jen it looks like such a FUN day...lots of family and lots of food!!!!
We had a bit of the back yard cricket happening too. Bit of a tradition when it's our turn to host the Christmas lunch.
