This got me thinking ... what is my perfect Christmas Breakfast?? As a kid I remember being subjected to the yearly, must eat because it's Christmas half a grapefruit swimming in melted sugar.  It was a family tradition and although it was not a culinary delight we always did it (who on earth decided that would be a good idea! Mum? Dad?) followed by a bacon sandwich!!  Now I have my own family and Christmas is very different.

Back in 2008 my lovely friend and I were chatting on MSN when the concept for the Charlie Moo's logo was born ... the orginal looked like this.

OK so it wasn't brilliant but after a design tweek we had ... well what you see now, as yes in 4 years Moo hasn't changed at all.  We gradually added a Megan Moo and and Olive Moo.  This year as Charlie and Megan have grown and their likes and interests have developed they have been playing a bigger role in what "the Moo's" look like we added a pirate and a princess this year and Moo has plans for a few others.  

But Olive well she still looks the same :( That's where you come in Olive needs a bit of a revamp a more grown up look now she's 18mths old loves swimming, dancing, eating pens and swings. The colours need to stay the same but you're welcome to lose the dummy and hat and add ... well whatever you like!! 

You can use either of these images.
