Merry Christmas to all! 
Mr BBB and I have just returned from a wonderful few days spent with family in Melbourne. And, although the time never seems to be long enough, with many kilometres travelled (and many toilet breaks taken along the way!) we managed to spend at least a little time with each of our nearest and dearest. 
Our celebrations began on Christmas Eve, continued all day Christmas Day… 
Well into Boxing Day… 
And beyond also… 
There was food… 
So much food… 
There were laughs… 
There were presents… 
(even for those of us that can’t yet unwrap them!) 
There was a family Boxing Day cricket match, played on a pitch with a farm view… 
Spectators… 
And baby BBB’s first cricket game being played…. 
poorly 
There were many walks taken to balance out the abundance of good food. In suburbia… 
The country… 
Past the cows… 
And through the bush! 
And there were picnics amongst the trees. 
Overall, our 2011 Christmas celebrations were just as I had hoped. Fun and family filled – but also relaxed and carefree! It’s hard to believe that this time next year we will have a 9 month old daughter along for the ride! What about you? What did you get up to over Christmas?
How wonderful that you had xmas with a view of the country with your family!
ohhhh! love. happy christmas 🙂 your long walk looks lovely!

Your Christmas looks wonderful. I love the table centrepiece with all the flowers.
Christmas with family is the best!
Looks like a great time – mine was a little different and I certainly hope that it's different this time next year!
Lots of time with family and friends 🙂 aren't the holidays great?
ps. love that the cows made it into the post
What a beautiful setting for your Christmas celebration!!
This Christmas it was just the husband and I, but it was fun. Looks like you had a wonderful time .
It looks like you had a lovely holiday! The chess board photo is cool.
Thanks for the update! Looks like a fabulous time! Merry Belated Christmas and Happy New Year!
Looks like you had a magnificent time Lisa! And how exciting that next year's will have baby BBB to join you all. Everyone must be so excited! 🙂
So glad you had a wonderful Christmas and were able to relax a bit as well. Hope things at work have now settled down and you can enjoy these last few months before bubs arrive. Can't believe my baby will be 13 around the time your baby is born. Seems like just yesterday…..
What a lovely time you had! We had a quiet one this year, but still stuffed full of fun and fabulous food!
beautiful photos – and lots of laughs and good food to enjoy – glad your christmas was special – next one will be so different – and best wishes for a great new year
