This week's smiles....week 335

 Here we are at the last round up of smiles for 2023.....and there's been lots to smile about.

Friday evening we went round to Shells for an evening of fun and nibbles....and swapped parcels.

Christmas Day we had dinner with Mark and Gina....and it was really yummy. Afterwards we swapped parcels and played games.

Boxing Day we went to Amy's for lunch and afterwards we swapped parcels and played games.

So what a wonderful few days we had, all filled with wonderful memories and laughter and we have been spoiled rotten.





Gina and Mark shared a wonderful collage from over the years and I really love seeing how the boys have grown.





Another collage, this time of Amy's three [and their dogs].

In the bottom left photo they are standing by the grave of Scrouge left behind when they filmed 'A Christmas Carol' in Shrewsbury.





Another collage from when the twins spent quality time together whith their cousins.





This year's photo of the twins in their Christmas stockings....taken to add to the collage they keep of them each year since they were born [back then they almost fitted right inside their stockings lol ].






Of course it wouldn't be Friday without a few funnies [excuse the language on the one].  I hope you found something that made you smile and will leave me a little comment before linking to your own smiles.
That just leaves me to wish you a very Happy New Year and here's hoping we can share lots more smiles in 2024.
Hugs,
Annie x
