Hello Milo.

Christmas day!   With 2 young Children the day started fairly early as you might expect.   However I have to say they have a lot of patience as their family tradition is not to open presents until everybody is up, dressed and ready.

With so many people and Santa being so generous present opening took so long we had a break part way through.  After the presents were all open we had a Brunch revolving round various personal twists on a theme of Eggs Benedict.

In the time between brunch and dinner Auntie Kat gave the kids time to meet Milo her Royal Python.   Milo is about 10 and very used to being handled.  The shot shows Emily sat between Auntie Kat and ArcaneSpark (her Mum) gently feeling how a snake moves (and thoroughly enjoying it).  This is the age to introduce kids to animals then they don't grow up with irrational fears or dislikes.  Just my opinion other opinions are available.

We then had a wonderful meal, thank you Steve, followed by games/cards and and a few little drinks
