A Homemade Christmas

Durben Style! I bet your picturing knitted scarves or cutesy crafts.......but that just wouldn't really be us.
Max felt strongly about giving gifts this year, and in particular that they should be hand made. "It just makes it special" he said.
He spent a couple of days popping in and out of his room asking for paper, newspaper, and more and more tape......... He wanted it all to be a surprise.....but three rolls of tape later......I was starting to wonder.

Early Christmas morning, overflowing with excitement he ran to his closet to pull out the 'presents'...........

He had made Mark a gun. Out of paper.

He had made Lillian a Sword Set. Out of paper.

He had made a Bracelet for me. Out of Ninja Stars.


And a Skull Mask for Tobias. Out of paper.
I was very impressed! And proud that he had put so much thought and effort into each gift. It was a nine year old boys true expression of love for his family............. and weaponry.
(Linking the two must be a genetic trait from Mark ;0)
