Festive season begins

Christmas is well and truly upon us. Well, it has been since the department stores unpacked their annual Christmas shops (August) but I like to be old-fashioned and celebrate the festival for just one month of the year.

On Saturday we took a trip to the local market to pick out this year's tree. They wrapped him in some ribbon to hold his arms in for the journey home, and then we were off. Fortunately Kath had planned ahead and brought along some guy she knows to do the hard work. Thanks Greg!


Homeward bound
