Christmas House lights

Every Christmas Eve, we go for a drive around our town. We look at all the Christmas lights. It is a lot of fun looking at all the bright lights. I am so excited for Christmas.

It is the day that Santa visits our house.

On Christmas Eve we leave gingerbread men and milk out for Santa. We also leave carrots for Santa's reindeers. If I sleep all night, Santa will leave presents for me in the morning. I am so excited for Christmas.

By the end of the day, I am very tired and I snuggle tight into bed. Can you guess what I dream about?

After eating we play lots of fun games. We play cricket, kick the football or swim in the pool.  I am so excited for Christmas.

We eat lots of food on Christmas Day. We eat glazed ham, prawns and potato bake. There is always room for Pavlova. Before we eat, we all sit together and pull Christmas crackers. I am so excited for Christmas.

On Christmas Day, we spend all day with our family. I get to see my Uncles, Aunties and cousins. My Nanna and Poppy will be there too. It is my turn to give them presents. I am so excited for Christmas.

At Christmas time, my brother and I make gingerbread men with my mum.
