My Mum was born in Germany, and moved to Australia only when she was 2. Raised by my German Grandparents, she didn't even speak English until she started school. So German traditions have always been a part of her, and my life- especially at Christmas! This means KKs, gifts on Christmas Eve, and stockings filled on St. Nicholas Day! (Today.) We're so disorganised this year though, that we didn't really do the stockings, just gave each other small gifts- it's the thought that counts. :) Mum bought little Christmas ornaments though, and put them in the pet's stockings, which was sweet of her.
We spent pretty much all day cleaning, me, Mum and Aunty Ellie. Matt was at work, Dad conviniently at the car races and Opa slept all day. I feel so absentminded though, maybe I'm tired. But hey, the house is finally decorated and clean!
My Aunt and Uncle and Cousins are over now having a pizza night, and I'm taking a break from small talk, in my room.
