CHRISTMAS PUDDING






















We don't eat Christmas pudding in our house. I'm the only person who likes dried fruit so I am deprived of the pleasures of Christmas pudding. Until this year when D chose a Christmas pudding costume to wear to give out gifts during the AMR Consulting Christmas party. Luckily he only wore it for an hour or so and changed before hitting the dance floor!

Elliot loved trying on the costume. Cait preferred being a reindeer.


(Oh, and the white bandage on Elliot's head? A meeting between a stick thrown by a friend and E's head. Unintentional. Lots of blood. Visit to the doctor. Bits embedded in his head. Anaesthetic. More dressings. Time off school. No swimming lessons allowed. One of the reasons boys shouldn't play with sticks!).

Hee hee! Love the costume. I'm so lucky - all my family loves christmas pudding so I made 2 this year. I wanted to eat it as soon as it was out of the oven! What a shame - I could have made you an individual one!

LOL re the stick comment, still haven't worked out how to stop my youngest though - he and sticks gravitate like magnets. Love the costumes.
