Christmas, a new house and an ATV!

Wow. What a few days! I've had a really great Christmas over here. On Christmas eve I got picked up by a family I knew from back in England and I've been staying with them for the past couple of days. I was blown away on Christmas day as this family had bought me loads of presents! It was SO nice of them. That night we went over to the neighbours house to watch a movie and even they had got me presents! Everyone's generosity really did blow me away.

On boxing day we moved into this family's new house (which is massive!). Most of the stuff had already been moved so it just invovled moving a few things. Much of the day was spent playing Halo on their 60inch TV with surround sound! It was great! :-D

(apparently you can never get close enough to the screen!)


Their neighbours seem nice. They have an Italien couple on one side who let me and Rob (the son who's my age from the family I was staying with) take their ATV out. It was a lot of fun with ice everywhere!

I've definately missed being at home with family, especially when I spoke to them on Christmas day and heard all of my cousins and everyone in the background! But this family I stayed with are pretty much my family as well, so I had a great time and am really grateful for that.
