Happy Holidays!


We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas/Chanukah/Kwanza, Boxing Day etc…

This was our first Christmas abroad and we definitely missed having family around. Luckily my Nana’s package arrived with holiday cookies in time for Christmas. Armed with Pizzelle’s and the Kenny G Christmas album, we were able to survive our first Christmas away from our families, as well as our first Christmas in a warm climate.

I made Christmas dinner for Mere and myself and then we met up with some friends for drinks in Queenscliff, about a 15 minute walk from Manly.

Santa brought us some snorkel gear, which we tried out the next day.


Here is Mere doing some Xmas shopping (don’t worry, we didn’t buy those for anyone. As good as Tom Brady looks in them, I will probably bypass getting some man Uggs):


New Years is a big deal in Sydney as it is the 1st major city in the world to roll in the new year and we’ll be on a boat in Sydney Habor taking in the fireworks – we’ll post some of the pictures.

Side note on the Kenny G Christmas album – my favorite song is Silver Bells, probably because it sounds like a cross between Christmas and when the credits roll at the end of Saturday Night Live:
So, to everyone, we miss you and have a happy New Year
