Christmas holiday up North...

This year I went to my Aunties house up North, while up there we had a Christmas party the thing we bought for the party were meat, sausages, and patties to put on the BBQ and we bought some soda’s and some chips and dips plus we played games on my Cousins PS3,the thing I liked there were the food, then the next day we all went for a swim at the pools.

At the pools me my Cousin went jumping of the diving pool it was a lot of fun but then it started to get boring!!, for some reason my Auntie went some where and we didn’t know were she went but when she came in we saw her with some Hot chips with fish and hot-dog after that we went back in after 10 minutes.

After that we went home and got into bed because it started to get darker then the next day we had to say good by until something was wrong with our van then she said we can stay one more day until we get a new battery so from the day on we just played Games all day then then it was time to go now so we said by then we went home.
