Mayo Christmas 2008

Sledding with the Cousins!

Great food!!

Snow was a little deep!

Anyone interested?

Hi Everyone...I bet ur all wondering why? but...I am sure some Australian's would love to see how toilets flush in the US...American's always ask "is it true that the water spins the other direction in Australia", well this should explain to Australian's why they even think it spins in the first place!
NOTE: US toilets are weak...no strength to the suction, so they get blocked easily--so always have a plunger handy:

'Love Came Down' Concert

Today Shel and I went to the 'Love Came Down' Concert. The bands Jars of Clay, Leeland, Sixpence none the richer and Sara Groves all played. The main theme of the Concert was Christmas and how love came down at Christmas, because of Our saviour being born!

The night was fantastic with all of the well known Christmas carols (and some originals) were sung. And I must say the lighting was pretty cool!
