Christmas in France - spoilt rotten!

Although we were missing family and friends this year at Christmas Claire and her family made every effort to ensure that we had an amazing Christmas in France! It was our first cold Christmas and cold it was! It was -10 degrees at some points and even threatened to snow a few times! Lots of frost on everything so it was still a white Christmas! Claire and Clare (yes it does get confusing) were sporting some nice bruises having slipped up on the stairs one morning (Claire's Grandad did much better simply stepping past the girls lying on the floor whinging).


Pressies all round!



















One thing is for sure - Claire's Dad Graham is one hell of a cook and so we thought the additional of the food diaries part 2 was required for this post! So here goes:

Ok so it didn't snow but we made our own
Yes ice on everything!
