12 Days of Christmas at Crown

We had a wonderful day yesterday with family who came over to help us celebrate the birth of our Saviour.

Last night we decided to go into Melbourne and enjoy two of the Christmas shows together with Sir N.  We went to Crown Casino where they are currently running Christmas Fantastic {The Twelve Days of Christmas}.  It runs every 15 min and is free to the public. You can watch a 3 min YouTube clip on the making of Christmas Fantastic.

The Twelve days of Christmas begin on Christmas day and end on Twelfth Night — January 5th, the night before Epiphany.

Who can add to Christmas?


"Who can add to Christmas? 
The perfect motive is that God so loved the world. 
The perfect gift is that He gave His only Son. 
The only requirement is to believe in Him. 
The reward of faith is that you shall have everlasting life." 
- Corrie Ten Boom
