Parties, dressups and more parties...our weekend

We seem to alternate between lovely relaxing weekends and weekends that are chock full of activities.  Leading into Christmas it does seem to get even crazier for some reason and last weekend, for us, was just the start.  Fancy dress parties, the girls playing in the water non stop, and more parties was the theme for the weekend.  Have I mentioned here before how I love this time of year?;)
