Oh look, it's the Easter Bunny.
It's the Easter Bunny.
Hang on, I'll put my drink somewhere.
Oh look, it's the Easter Bunny.
Hello everyone, hello, hello to you all.
It's the Easter Bunny.
Well, today we're going to be creative.
We're going to make some Easter eggs.
Easter eggs.
Well, Christmas is fast approaching.
And we need to inject a Christmas spirit in our garden.
Inject? What, you've got some needles?
Yeah, inject like that.
Where's your hat, Christmas hat?
I'm not around here.
Oh, hang on a minute.
I need to straighten this up.
I can do that.
But be careful not to damage it.
Hang on, where is that thing?
Hang on, I'll be back.
Here you go, I'll be back.
I'll get something.
Hang on, I haven't got long ears.
One sec, I'll be back.
I forgot to get my...
What do we have here?
I'll be back.
This and this.
Alright, found it.
It's not for you.
Look, I'm a Christmas tree.
So do you think this is enough to straighten this?
Because we're going...
Hi.
We're going to use this as a Christmas tree.
So this is finished.
This is Ionia flowers.
And now this one is a death bloom.
It's finished flowering.
All the yellow flowers are gone.
But I don't want to cut it.
So I decided I think that this will be good for a Christmas tree.
Let's then smash it up.
No, we will straighten it up because it's leaning that way.
I think I have to remove this.
Okay, here you go.
It's your... I don't know where you put that to.
I'm going to shove this in my foot.
But I need to straighten here.
Oh, I need some tie.
One sec, I'll be back again.
I'm not organised to die, but I'll be back.
Oh, that was my finger.
That's looking quite good.
Alright, so let's straighten it up first.
Here you go.
There's the crow.
Hello, Mr Crow.
Hanging around.
Waiting for my...
What happened?
Nothing.
Waiting for my...
He's talking back to the crow.
Waiting for my fruit to grow.
I think you are going to hurt my viewers' ears.
No.
Is that better?
Okay, now...
Leaning tower of Christmas tree.
So if you have a Ionium that flowers as big as this,
don't cut it yet, guys.
Let's repurpose it and use it as a Christmas tree.
Can you sing while we do this?
Here you go.
Can you sing?
I don't sing.
You have a good voice.
Matthew got a good voice, actually.
We do karaoke and he sings good.
He totally lies.
Okay, let's put some balls.
Balls?
Do you have enough balls around the place?
Come on.
I don't have enough.
I want the red balls, but I don't have one.
So let's just use what we have
and maybe later on I'll go to the...
Christmas shop.
To the shop to get some more balls.
Now I have not enough balls because you put it in your ears.
I'm walking down the street with them today.
Come on.
I'm going to go shopping with some balls in my ears.
All right.
Come on, sing for me.
Sing for our viewers.
Sing for our lovely viewers.
Would you like to hear about the...
The Christmas song.
The Christmas kangaroo.
This is so tall that I'm really trying to reach.
Put it in the front first so that...
because I don't have enough balls.
Come on, Matthew.
Sing.
Sing for us.
How about Jingle Bells?
No.
If I sing Jingle Bells, it's going to be copywritten
and then you won't be able to play in the studio.
No, just a short one.
How about I sing Rudolph?
Rudolph.
Okay, Rudolph.
The red-nosed kangaroo.
Had a very shiny tail.
Oh, look at this girl.
If you had ever seen it, you'd make her laugh and howl.
I think I need to get more balls.
Do you have any balls hanging in there?
You got two?
I don't know.
I don't know where you can find any balls around here.
You got two.
I don't know where you can find any balls around here.
I don't have any balls around here.
I don't have any balls at all anyway.
Matthew got two.
You're always hanging from my teeth.
I'll show you.
Hey.
Can you reach on the top?
Do you think we need to put the Christmas light first?
Oh, yeah.
Christmas light first.
Put that away for now.
Put the Christmas light.
Because we might have a hard time to put the Christmas light
because the balls are already hanging in there.
I have just the same clothes.
This Christmas light is solar.
Solar.
Solar clothes.
Solar.
Then maybe what do you think?
We put some stencils.
Stencils.
Because you're taller than me.
Oops.
You can start at the top.
That's not real.
But don't squish it too much.
Put it right to the top first.
So everything gets the light on the top.
Yes.
I'll put it at the top.
Like that.
And then put it on around.
At the top.
And then wrap it around like this.
Wrap it.
I'm a rapper?
Rapper.
No.
Jingle all the way.
Oh, what fun it is to shoot Rudolph in the hay.
Yay.
Excuse our voice.
Jingle bell.
Dashing through the snow.
Oh, this is fun.
Dashing through the paddocks.
With one opening shotgun.
What?
Be nice.
Oh, I don't have enough lights.
I want to wrap the lights as well on the stand.
That's sneaky.
Yes.
That's sneaky.
I might get another one.
Sneaky.
Oh, my God.
I will go to the shop again and get some more lights.
How about that?
Sneaky.
Where's your dance move?
I think our viewers...
I'm all danced out.
Our viewers are missing your dance move.
You wanted some private dancing last night.
I need to put this one down because...
I'm a private dancer.
I dance all for money.
Do what you want me to do.
Do you know that song?
No, but you sing it properly.
I can't because the girl sings it.
You know Tina Turner.
Yes, I know.
Let's wrap this one so that it's facing the sunlight.
I need your hand.
You need my hand?
Yes, please.
Well, I've got two of them.
Which one do you want?
The left and the right.
Thank you.
This is just a simple project.
That we can do in our garden.
To lighten up the mood.
And to repurpose the...
Frogs.
Ioniums.
So, let's continue putting balls.
All right.
Oh, no.
I need some more balls.
Now, I need your hand again.
And your height.
Because I can't reach.
My hand or my toes?
You go in the front here.
Because...
I'll get some more balls.
Here.
And put that side.
Don't cover the camera.
Not yet.
I think I need some red balls.
Isn't it?
Because the colour that I have here...
It's not really showing as much.
Okay.
There's more here.
In your ears.
Right at the top.
Do you want to see my impression of a minty?
There.
There at the top.
There.
On the top.
Yes, please.
I want.
All right.
I'll be back.
I'll get the more...
I get more lights.
Where is it?
Oh, my goodness.
This guy.
Sometimes I'm becoming so forgetful, guys.
I don't know where I put them.
Back.
So, this light is just a very, very cheap one.
And it's really perfect because it's solar.
We don't need any electricity on this.
We just need sunlight.
Wrap it around my Christmas tree.
Hello, Mr Crow.
There's two of them.
Super, Mr Crow.
Okay.
This one is bending.
The head is too heavy.
I thought there was something wrong.
Yes, I thought there was something wrong with you.
I thought my head was a bit heavy.
What happened here?
That's because my brain is very oversized.
You have to do it properly.
And you're not doing a good enough job.
Yes, because my helper today...
Is Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
Oh, you shouldn't wrap it in there.
You should wrap it here.
All right.
Go.
Hold this one, Mr Rudolph.
And then we're going to wrap it around in the bed garden.
So, since we have more extra lights...
We are going to run it here in the small raised bed.
Around here.
So, let's try that.
Here you go, Mr...
Just put more lights in the garden.
But just be careful because...
We have so many plants around.
The elf on the shelf.
So, just position that, Mr...
Somewhere that can get some sunlight.
All right.
So, let's go to the shop and get some more bowls.
So, where are we going, hon?
Before we get those Christmas bowls?
What's in here?
We're not getting those Christmas bowls.
We're going to a truck show.
A truck show?
So, it's a give and take, guys.
So...
I'm taking and you're not going to give.
Matthew is helping me in my garden.
Now, we go to his favorite part.
The truck show.
Look at his face.
Doughnuts.
Oh, doughnuts.
Doughnuts.
So, this one is a doughnut.
We'll get some doughnuts.
Gluten-free.
So, these doughnuts are all gluten-free.
Hey, so where do you want to go, mister?
What do you want to look at?
Everywhere.
So, Matthew...
This is Matthew Lobs.
Cars.
Trucks.
So, he's in heaven right now.
Look at this guy.
Hello.
There you go.
Here we are.
This is Matthew.
I think you look like the same with that guy there.
There.
You look like me.
So, this is Matthew's favorite one.
Trucks, isn't it?
Because Matthew is working in the industry truck.
So, he loves trucks altogether.
So, he's driving like this.
And Matthew got a Mercedes truck.
Mercedes Benz.
But it's not here, though.
So, here are caravans.
And look at this.
How much the caravan?
This caravan worth 82,900 for this big caravan.
You wish, hon.
You wish.
Harvester.
So, this is the one harvest or pick trees?
Yeah, we pull the trees out.
Cut them.
Okay.
And cut them to size.
Cut them to length.
What they do?
Pick the tree up.
Yeah.
Cut them to length.
Okay.
Alright.
Yeah.
That's the head.
Oh, that's the head in there.
Now, cut the tree.
Okay.
Put the tree on the side.
Yeah.
And it will go down and cut the tree to size.
Yeah.
So, Matthew drives a truck like this, isn't it, hon?
This is what you drive.
So, Matthew drove that long or longer than that?
Longer than that.
So, Matthew drove or drives 36 and a half meters.
And he drives.
You drive longer than this?
Yeah, longer.
Longer than this.
This truck.
It's only a baby.
It's probably very big.
So, that's what my hubby does.
About three, two and a half meters.
Oh, this is the skewer.
This is the one.
This is the one that picks the logs up.
Yeah.
Picks them onto the truck.
And put in the truck.
Into the truck.
Okay.
So, they are much together.
Yeah.
They work together.
Work together.
That's friends.
They're friends.
Is that crying?
No.
They're picking logs as well?
No.
Oh, no.
Oh.
And look how long is that.
Oh, and the wheels.
The wheels are so big.
Can you stand up there, Hans?
So, they can see how big the wheels.
The wheels of this excavator.
Look at that.
It's so big.
These purple trucks here.
These are Jules' truck.
They are furniture removalists.
Here.
Truck, truck, truck everywhere.
It's truck day.
That blue truck there.
Transformer.
Your shirt.
Look.
Match your shirt.
Love your shirt.
Looks like me.
Looks like you.
These trucks look so brand new.
But now, they're working in the forest.
Scots.
Matthew worked in Scots before.
Look at those trucks.
My goodness.
They are so shiny and beautiful.
Hey.
It looks brand new.
Front of that.
Looks like transformer.
My goodness.
It looks brand new.
Never been used.
But they're using this one in the forest.
Look.
Oh, goodness.
Shining.
And look at this.
Beautiful.
Front of that truck.
It's so pretty.
Look at the front.
Is your truck as pretty as this?
Hi.
Looks like transformer.
Look at the front of that.
And I think that's the sign.
The blue one.
Thank you.
Do you want a bag?
What do you think?
How much is it?
Yes, please.
I'm getting that.
There's a lot more pretty here.
Beautiful one.
Oh, this is...
Lacey Susan.
Pretty.
So pretty.
Oh, my God.
Beautiful.
I want to use that.
Yeah?
You're buying everything.
I'm carrying the rest.
Oh, you're very good.
It's all right.
You'll be rewarded later.
Well, after looking around those trucks,
I got hungry.
So I got this donut here.
Let's try it and see.
Let's see.
It's delicious.
This is gluten-free, guys,
because I was diagnosed with celiac
just a few months ago.
And I cannot eat food that contains gluten
or barley or something like that.
So I have to eat gluten-free now.
That's why you notice.
If you notice, I lose a lot of weight
because I can't eat much food
that contains gluten.
Hi.
I got my Grinch.
McDonald's feed.
Yeah, Matthew got McDonald's,
so I cannot eat McDonald's anymore.
It gives me a bellyache.
But this donut here,
this is gluten-free.
So let's try it, guys.
Let's try it.
This is, I think,
this is the cinnamon one.
Delicious, guys.
Let's have some donut, guys.
Even if it's gluten-free,
it's delicious, guys.
Yeah.
You have a nice hat.
So it's coffee time.
So after those structural
Christmas shopping balls,
Matthew's happy
because he had his favorite coffee
and a vanilla slice.
And I have my latte
with heart-shaped deco on top.
And again, my gluten-free donut.
Enjoy, hun.
Nice.
And then we go back to the garden,
continue, continue that Christmas tree.
No.
No, he doesn't want to go home, guys.
No.
As soon as we got home
from picking up the Christmas balls,
we got straight to work.
We went right to our
circular Christmas tree
and started putting the decorations
on as quickly as we could,
trying to beat the rain.
You know that feeling
when you're rushing
but still so excited?
That was definitely us.
Every ornament we added
made the tree look more festive
and full of holiday spirit.
Even with the dark clouds coming in,
nothing was going to stop us
from finishing this little project.
And as just the first few drops
started to fall,
we were done perfect timing.
Now our circular Christmas tree
is all dressed up
and ready to shine for the season.
Our Christmas tree is done,
but I think it still looks undressed.
It's not really...
not enough red.
We need clutter.
We need more red, I think,
but if we put more,
it gets too heavy
and the plant is going to lean
towards Matthew.
So I think this will do
and then tonight we will see
what it looks like
when the light is on.
I'm happy with the result
and thank you, Han,
for helping me
doing this Christmas tree.
I think I will put more
red balls later on.
So as you see,
it's only 3 o'clock in the afternoon
and it's already dark
because rain is coming.
So that is why we did the time-lapse
to finish this off.
So guys, thank you so much
for joining us.
Thank you so much for joining me, Han,
doing all this Christmas tree.
So that's it.
I think the birds are happy too
with the result.
I can hear all the birds.
He's up there.
Where?
Oh, the birds are watching.
There's a bird.
There.
Kookaburra.
Alright guys, thank you so much for joining us.
Also, we have some
side track because we went to
the track show
because Matthew loves track
and because that's his work.
So side track,
went to the car show,
then we went to the shop
to get more bowls and then we had
coffee as well.
I hope you enjoyed
being with us today
and I hope we will see you next time.
Bye.
Bye Han. See you next time?
Yeah. We're going to see you next time?
Yeah? Sure?
If you want to see me next time,
you say. You say.
Subscribe.
Alright, see you.
Bye.
That's so fast.
Okay,
it's night time.
So, here it is.
They have some lights.
The light's not strong enough.
This one should
light up as well but
it's a battery operated so I didn't
bother to put battery on it.
And yes, it's raining
and cold at the moment.
And here it is.
It's pretty
but the camera doesn't really
get the
actual looks of the lights,
the Christmas lights because
I have a light, I have
a lot of lights in here
at the moment. I have
that light, then more
Christmas lights around
and then I have
those twinkling lights, the torch.
So yeah,
and more there, more lights.
Oh, so freezing. See?
It's wet.
So, yep.
Here you go.
Merry Christmas
everyone.
So I'm happy all the lights
that we put on the garden beds
are just there. Little tiny lights.
It's all
good. Pretty beautiful.
Loved it, loved it. Let's have a look in here.
Yeah, those are the
Christmas lights here.
So I think I should put more lights.
What do you think, guys? Put more?
Put more?
Okay, goodnight everyone.
See you again.
Bye.
