worth clicking on the picture to enjoy the googly eyes holy family experience !

the three wise men

esther let me share this picture with you.  she was keen to tell me she drew it over a year ago, and i actually fished it out of her dustbin to take the photo.

you might think the wise man on the left is heading in the wrong direction, but he’s actually hurrying along his camel.  we can only see the head of the camel as esther wasn’t able to draw camels at that stage.

so now we know.

happy christmas !

i’ve walked past this bench numerous times without noticing the fantastic bench handle ends.  the frost brought them to life !

the mystery thing was …

it was our spookily attractive angel viewed from underneath (she’s the one on the left).  she’s got no body so we were looking up her neck hole.
