New Year's Celebrations

We stayed with my sister, Cecilia, for the rest of our time in England. Consequently we celebrated the New Year in with her and her family.

31st December, 2011

Harry and Lawrence making a delicious chocolate dessert.

New Year's Eve Dinner with Matthew and Nathaniel missing as they are celebrating with friends.

The boys playing their favourite computer game,  Age of Empires, with their cousin Lawrence.

Lawrence playing against the twins on his computer and Bill trying to buy a brand new car for less than 2GBP - it wasn't sold that night even at midnight when everyone was distracted.

We celebrated Christmas all over again but with Grandpa this time.

New Year's Day Lunch

Traditional English Christmas Pudding - delicious with brandy butter.

Grandpa opening his presents while "Age of Empires" is being played across the room on the different computers.

The Trueman brothers and the Menken brothers are one team for Pictionary.

Miranda (cousin) and her husband Alexander(October 2011 Wedding) joined us in the afternoon to play Pictionary.


Afer Pictionary, we played charades - Harry's up.
