Last Tuesday it was the hottest day on record at that time
of year, it got to 38c and was still 33c at 5.30pm when we headed over to
Rowan’s school for the carols evening.
The hall was packed and very hot and sweaty, which was unusual!
Rowan’s class went on to stage and sang their carol, Santa
Wear Your Shorts! Rowan opted not to
join in as he had only had 2 lessons of learning the song, but he wanted to
watch. They were very cute.
The whole school were performing but we didn’t stay as it
was mega hot. There were loads of
parents and kids all running around outside in the fresher air. We stayed for a bit, watched the amazing sunset whilst the kids ran around with other children then headed home.
I thought I would post up a couple of the carols:
Santa Wear Your Shorts
We all love a warm warm Christmas
Sitting outside on a summer night
We’re all wishing for a warm warm Christmas
Maybe Santa Claus would wear his shorts tonight
Santa Wear Your Shorts
Santa Wear Your Shorts
Santa Wear Your Shorts Tonight
Santa Wear Your Shorts
Santa Wear Your Shorts
Santa Wear Your Shorts Tonight
Brother keep smiling, Sister does too
We put our Christmas turkey on the barbeque
Mum is happy cos’ the weather is cool
And Dad is happy cos’ he’s swimming in the pool!
Aussie Jingle Bells
Dashing through the bush in a rusty Holden ute,
Kicking up the dust, esky in the boot.
Kelpie by my side, singing Christmas songs,
It’s summer time and I am in my singlet, shorts and
thongs. Oh!
Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, jingle all the way,
Christmas in Australia
on a scorching summer’s day, hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells, Christmas time is beaut,
Oh what fun it is to ride in a rusty Holden ute!
Engine’s getting hot, we dodge the kangaroos,
The swaggie climbs aboard, he is welcome too.
All the family is ther, sitting by the pool,
Christmas day the Aussie way, by the barbecue, Oh!
Chorus
Come the afternoon grandpa has a doze,
The kids and uncle Bruce are swimming in their clothes.
The time comes round to go, we take a family snap,
And pack the car and all shot through before the washing up,
Oh!
