We realised that a) Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without the tinsel tree and b) the cousins didn't know its history. We gathered round it on Christmas Eve and Mark read The Gift of the Magi. And on Christmas night we came together again and shared our one gift a piece, which were so thoughtful and fun.
Speaking of gifts, the big Christmas gift from George & Lorraine to all of us was a snorkelling trip off Grand Turk - on Christmas Day no less!

Child 2 (it was hard to tell underwater) |
Man 1 |
The rays of light were captivating |
Making her way down the stairs. Flippers are tricky things; she abandoned them on the 2nd swim |
The gang |
What we did and might have seen |
And then it was time to hit the beach! |
None of us tanned exactly but we didn't burn either! |
Great fish lunch and local beer from the snack shack |
and yes, I was indeed there too |
