Putting up the communal Christmas Tree at Petie and Mariaan's place

As you know we are currently living in a small rental while our house is being built. Also, our circle of friends are all catching up for a braai and a (large :-) ) meal at Petie's place on Christmas day. They invited us over today to quickly help put up the tree, and here are some pictures.

Can't wait for the short break over the festive season.

The "team" who decorated the tree.

...but the "manne" did most of the work, while the girls drank tea...

Philip, MC and Petie hard at work.

Karla adding some feminine touches; thanks love! X

All MC wanted to do was put up the balls.

The end result.
Now the clock is ticking for the Neumann, Hess, Ludick, van Rensburg and Bann families
 to put some prezzies below the tree and to thank God for all he does for us.
