Christmas Eve 2010

Just a few happy snaps from our Jacques Christmas Eve Dinner (Which is really now our Jacques/Upton/McLaughlin/Broome/Andrews Christmas Dinner!)

Each year we have a different theme and this year was Asian BBQ. The decorations were just so PRETTY! The hydrangeas were from Mumma C's garden (Thanky ou SO much!). Whacked into a few old Dolmio jars from garage and Voila!

These King Proteas look absolutely stunning, the pink is just beautiful. ($5 each from Coles!)

Crushed pistachios for the Pav, again I just love that delicious pinky purple and green! The tablecloth is from Target.

Fortune cookies for our Asian BBQ theme

Loads of beautiful tealight candles and wine glasses to reflect the candlelight

And of course some pink Chinese lanterns for the hedges ($1.50 each from the Asian supermarket) Baby Girl looking SO gorgeous in her Christmas Dress by Noni. And she's sitting! Clever girl.

Everyone working hard in the kitchen!Here's the family minus Noni taking the photo. Even our senile little pup Karma has come to celebrate Izzy's first Christmas!

And the new puppy Bruiser...what a cutie!

A bit of chalk is always fun
Snuggly little girl and the boys just chillin'

I just love this combination of blue and white and pink.

All the different chairs from inside look so great out here!

But Izzy really stole the show!
