Christmas day

After the mass on Christmas day, my sister and I decided to take a few pictures in our lovely garden.

Our Christmas eve

This year Christmas eve was at our home with my father's father and his wife.

My mom (the best cook) decorated the table with Ginger bread houses an prepared great food for us.

My mom, the best cook..

Yesterday we helped my mother cater the starters for a wedding.

I am so extremely proud of her, here is some of the incredible food that she made.

She also did the decor of the place to fit the brides requests.

As we began to clear everything at the end of the day, it started to rain... It never stopped me before.

Dancing in the rain. So blessed.

The lovely view of the rainbow.

This was all my Mom's idea.. She used an old door we had on the farm, and with the help of 2 men we tied it to a tree as a table.

From left to right: Pancakes filled with spinach, feta cheese and cream, Seed bread, cream cheese, baked beetroot with balsamic and cherries, Salad on a stick, Mediterranean ciabatta bread, Cucumber, cream cheese and smoked salmon.

Popcorn balls hanging out of the tree.

Home made punch: Strawberry, Pineapple and Cream Soda, Lemon and mint water.

Chocolate mousse, Fruit tarts with a yogurt and condensed milk filling, Milktart on a spoon, Heart shaped cookies.

Another tree with hanging popcorn balls.

Heart shaped cheese biscuits with Biltong butter.









This is the backside of a chair that she hanged out of the tree.
