A few pics of our christmas

Kim and I just thought we would put a couple of pics on as it's now Christmas time and we have been snapping away with Mitchel! Its so damn hot here in Madikwe but luckily have been cooling off with the afternoon thunder showers on most days and have been making good use of the pool! Summer holidays in South Africa! Braai, swim, if you cant get to the beach and drink and chill! Lekker Man!

It was our first Christmas off in a few years so we enjoyed it a lot! Unfortunately we didn't go away but with Mitchel it was just easier staying at home, so we went on lots of game drives and too Mitchel along, hes pretty good in the vehicle and only makes noise when I stop, which makes being in lion sightings a little difficult as they pick up on the noise that he is making and become quite interested! But we still had a good time and got some great piccies!

Awesome Madikwe Sunset!

Got this pic in the Garden!

This little Ground Squirrel was quite keen on getting his picture taken!

 



 



Because its been so hot we have been in the pool every day! But its great with a beer to go in with and we even got Mitchel in, He loves it! Proper water baby!

We headed out to Molatedi  Dam for the day! We weren't that prepared and should have taken some shade along with us! So we did it African style, Kid under the car and braai going on the tailgate! Eish was it hot! Dogs had a absolute Jol! Chasing cows and running in the water, when we got back home they were Knacked!

Jaz and Makka running themselves ragged!

 



Molatedi Dam, Nice flat open area for the dogs to run around!

 

 



Mitchel chilling under the car in the only shade for miles! Note the nappy on my head!

Hot as hell! while I braai some wors for a roll!

Christmas Day-Merry Christmas!!!

 

Well, that has been our Christmas leave, nice and relaxed! I am doubting that we will have a heinous party to go to for New Years Eve! Which is fine,  would suit us if we had a little braai and went to bed after a few drinks!

 

We all hope that you had a great Christmas! Where every you are and what ever you are doing!

Merry Christmas! and have a happy and prosperous 2013

 

Love Kim, Brad, Mitchel, Makka and Jaz!
