I'd give anything to be able to play in the sand for Christmas. And if you ever want to experience the cold and snow for Christmas you could come up here but I think it is overrated. BTW it gets dark at 4 in the afternoon this time of the year and it is very dark. Donna Merry Christmas

Good for you! The Secret Santa is a fabulous idea, and apparently my sis and her kids and the rest of my family are doing that this year. Sure de stresses the whole affair, if there is a specific wish list too! I have spent Christmas in Hawaii and adored it. I don't miss the grey west coast skies and rain at all! LOL about Rob's last minute shopping! Have a wonderful time! Hannah, you sound in your element; truly!

You could always try and see the Whangarei Xmas lights - we have a couple of good ones up here (and some not far from where you will be staying) Good on you doing Christmas baking.

I have only wrapped about 4 presents for David's friends and babysitter yesterday and that is it. Have done my first batch of cookies, and need to find time today and tommorrow to do more and wrap pressies! Sounds like a wonderful Christmas Day Hannah!

I am leaving it up to mom this year, she's the expert anyway ;-) I have only had one Christmas without winter, we went to Florida when I was 10. It was weird and didn't really feel like Christmas until we came home. But I am pretty sure I would get used to it pretty quick ;-) Mmmm, baking YUM!

Anyway, you plans do sound wonderful. The name pull and wish lists are something that definitely helps cut down the stress levels. Your neighbors are fortunate to get some yummy treats from you. I'm jealous. Please take some pictures before you pack them up so I have something to drool over!
