Christmas in Africa

Amy is leaving today to spend Christmas with her other granny in Johannesburg, so we all had a farewell party in Tokai forest yesterday. Glenda made a Christmas tree:

While the boys braaied:

That's Lloyd on the left, Chris's friend Gopal, Chris with Amy and Chris's friend Dominic.

Sarah and Amy ran around a lot and Pam tried not very hard to chase them:


And finally, you know it's been a good picnic when your feet look like this:

Definitely looks like a grand picnic. I'm jealous of the sandals - we're in the middle of some nasty wintry weather. Freezing rain, snow; lovely stuff.

Some questions - who is Glenda? And Amy looks quite a bit shorter than Sarah; is Sarah very tall for her age?

Glenda is Chris's new girlfriend - they have known each other for years. Glenda has a son called Stirling who is Jessica's age, which is great -- my girls get an agemate each!

Sarah is kind of tall for her age and Amy is kind of short, so between both of those and Sarah being three months older there is quite a big height difference. They're definitely towards opposite ends of the line between delicate and robust builds.
