Καλά Χριστούγεννα (Happy Christmas) from Cyprus!

Zoe, Meaden and Sarah
It's Christmas eve today, and a real treat to have a houseful of extended family members joining us for Christmas.  Sarah's parents, Meaden and Bob are with us, along with Sarah's cousin Zoe, who currently lives in Toronto Canada.  The last few weeks have been busy with pre-Christmas events, and Meaden and Bob have certainly had more than their fill of watching grandchildren performing in various concerts!  We've also been able to get out and enjoy some of the places we love in Cyprus, and the return of milder cyprus winter weather has meant that it's been nice to be out and about.

We haven't managed a Christmas card or letter this year, (we've been enjoying the fine weather outside on the bikes) so instead we'd like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas, wherever you happen to be in the world!  Some pictures follow that share how we are celebrating the festive season in Cyprus this year.



Happy Christmas and lots of love from
Ross, Sarah, Jessie, Angus, Sam, Anna, Menaka, Bob & Meaden, Zoe (the human) and Zoe (the dog)!





P.S. The clip below is from Anna's recent Christmas concert, where she seemed to take quite a shine to being the 'mummy bunny' and shaking her toosh for the audience!
