Christmas in Wodonga

This year the Bird family popped up to Wodonga for a nice quiet Christmas break. We celebrated the occasion with Phyllis, John, Fiona, and her boys Seth and Ty.








Some highlights of the day included: Alicia's lion costume and Lucas getting inundated with LEGO (again), but nonetheless managing to build it all in the one day! A personal highlight for Dad was locating a quiet, shady spot outside, grabbing a book, beer and bowl of chips, and having some quality "reflection" time.


Also, Lucas finally got a copy of the Skylanders game, so now he actually has a use for the figurine that he bought weeks ago. Many thanks to the Hohwy-Barclay boys for providing us with their unwanted Wii (plus a bucket-load of games) at a bargain price, so that Lucas has a platform he can play the game ON. (Playstation 2's are so last decade, after all...)

Anyway, after Christmas, we stayed there for a few days, hanging around and taking it easy. We went swimming (more than once), paddling at the weir, and just generally taking it easy. A marvellous time all up, and thanks once more to the Matthews clan for having us over!
