Uglyworld #236 - Ox and Babo Get Carried Away Wrapping Up Presents

Uglyworld #236 - Ox and Babo Get Carried Away Wrapping Up Presents, originally uploaded by www.bazpics.com.

Ox and Babo were enjoying the fun of wrapping up presents today before we got ready to drive to Mireille's mum and dad (as in Germany xmas is celebrated on the evening on the 24th, unlike back in Scotland where it's the morning of the 25th).

This year we're doing both - we will give some presents tonight and the rest tomorrow...anyway, back to the story...

Tray had been upstairs showering while Ox and Babo wrapped up all of the remaining presents, and when she came downstairs she hunted high and low for the remote control for the television - without success.

She decided to ask Babo and Ox if they had seen it as all the other uglies were either outside playing in the snow, or were hiding in their own little part of the house wrapping up their remaining presents too.

Of course Ox and Babo had no idea where the remote control could be, secretly Tray had seen it in their wrapping paper but didn't want to disturb their fun and left them to it.

Wage and Babo had heard me answer the door earlier this evening and wondered who was there and more imporantly what they wanted (i.e. had they brought anything interesting, or tasty for that matter for them to "take care of" for me).

I told them that it was only some local kids selling homemade biscuits in order to give a better christmas to blind local rabbits (not sure how they bought that story, but it seemed to work all the same).

Later on I summoned Babo and Wage to the living room where I told them to stand perfectly still with their hands over their eyes. After catching them both peeking through their fingers a few times they finally did the job properly, and I placed something in front of them and then quickly got the camera ready and shouted "ok, open your eyes NOW!!!".

The expressions on both of their faces as they turned to each other and shouted "TRAY" was simply priceless - as you can see in the photo they even held hands for a brief second or two amidst all of the excitement!!!

P.S. The hat Wage is wearing is my first ever attempt at crocheting, and I reckon it came out quite well :)
