Christmas cards from South Africa


I received some lovely Christmas cards from South Africa via

Australia.

My sister gave some small paintings and stitch work, she has done for me, to a friend who is visiting family in Australia.

This friend sent it to me because the post office in SA is in a mess.

The surprise arrived on Wednesday.

Thank you father Christmas.

My cards!
My cards!

These two cards are hand-made by my two young nieces!

Thank you Lija and Reini

Also for the lovely owl necklace!

    Vertrou jy het ‘n geseënde kersdag gehad.
    Daardie jare van kerskaarte was darem lekker…. hulle het sulke rye op die kaggelmuur gestaan. Vandag se tegnologie is vinnig en maglik, maar ai ek mis daardie “human touch.”

      Stem saam. Hierdie keer het ek net my seun + se kaartjie gekry en wraggies die dag voor Kersfees kry ek toe n handvol op n slag. Te lekker.
      Ek is self skuldig om nie te stuur nie. Ek het gevoel SA posdienste werk nie so dis nie die moeite werd om te stuur nie! 😀

    Ag ek is bly jy het dit betyds gekry … ek was so angstig om die pakkie te stuur dat die kaartjie agter gebly het
