Christmas in July


We got into the Christmas spirit last night with Bek organising an ENORMOUS Christmas dinner with a bunch of our friends. She had it all organised, invitations went out with what you had to bring to contribute (in terms of food) and it was all dropped off in the days before.

Bek's nan came round yesterday afternoon to help get the cooking going, as Bek had never cooked a roast (and chose to start in a big way...). Everyone arrived with their little kris-kringle present and it was on!

There were 26 people in our house, and as you can imagine - 26 peoples' worth of food!
But the awesome thing was - with 26 different people bringing their contribution, we had the perfect amount of food and dessert for everyone in the end.

It was a great night - with some Christmas spirit - but plenty of friends and good spirit.
Even Gibbs got in on the act by the end.
