Winter

This is how we walk to school in the morning. Holiday starts at noon.
It's a wonderful start of the holiday, we almost can't remember when we had so much snow!




And the DJ's of 3FM will move into their house of glass. It's a serious request! We sure will have a look.


Tonight i will show you more!

Post!

The postman arrived today. A package from Sweden and Taiwan. Last week i got the beautiful cards of Hanna. I had a beautiful autumn-swap with Maartje...it really makes me happy. All this beauty, all this creativity and so much inspiration!
Thank you all.

I had to write about the archetype of the artist for my exam in november and how i see myself. It's an never ending story, always in development. (?) I wish i lived in the golden-age where you could have your own master to learn from. Lucky for me...included by Camilla's book; there are cards to make your own Camilla-Collage! I already started! Show you when i'm finished. This way i can still learn a lot!


And i had coffee with Anja! It was nice meeting her. Talking about inspiration. We will probably meet again! Funny how you can meet trough the web.

There are photos with all these little stories, also this morning when it was really winter outside! It still is...
But i don't have time to up-load. I will do a picture-post soon!

This family!

I like to collect. This little box is moving with me also for a very long time.
It tells stories and that's something i really like.
It was 1988-1990 i kept these precious things.

And on sunday we had a family afternoon and went to see the play SERCADO of the childrens-circus Santelli. It was great and Luna could see herself up the stage in a few years!

Sinterklaas

Sinterklaas had his entry in our home town too, last saterday. Luna enjoyed the parade with the circus and was riding on one-wheel through the city!

This is the view my parents have! They are spending this night here...on a parking-spot next to the house where Salvador Dali once lived. I wish i was there aswell! I was there in the summer of 2008.
But now i'm not much more then a couch-girl...with 3 sick-children around me!

Mr. Finney

This is one of the books i got. I'm happy with this one and curious about the stories, just like Mr. Finney is; Always asking why! The drawings are made by the very talented Mr. Sieb Posthuma. Mr. Finney also has a website! AND it's written by prinsess Laurentien van Oranje.

Peru

Yesterday i wrote this honest scrap and i was in peru for a moment. Here some more photographs. The colours are a bit strange because thes are diapositives.
Enjoy!

Today i got a very nice book! I will show you tomorrow.

Luna en Marysol

Ik kreeg deze award van MAARTJE voor wie ik nog heel erg aan de knutsel ga! maar bij deze 10 dingen over mijzelf! Eerlijk en gewoon in het nederlands, want het is ingewikkeld genoeg!


1. ik houd van drop. Als ik het koop, eet ik het in 1x op...soort droppie-monster ben ik dan. Maar dat betekent niet dat ik niet van chocolade houd....

2. Sinds ik 16 jaar geleden naar de kibboets ging, wil ik het liefst elk jaar wel een reis maken...met kinderen is dat veel lastiger dus gingen we toen Luna 2,5 jaar was voor de laatste keer ver; Peru. Eigenlijk zou ik wel een aantal jaren in een ander land willen wonen. Of in ieder geval weer eens een verre reis willen maken!

3. maar als kampeer-fanaat is het heerlijk om met kinderen te kamperen!
Wel doen we tegenwoordig aan luxe; sinds 3 jaar hebben we toch een plas-emmer in de tent.

4. ik ga heel vaak veel te laat naar bed. Soms krijg ik er veel energie van, soms hoofdpijn!

5. ik heb al bijna een jaar niet meer hard gelopen en dat is te zien. Ik ben nog steeds van plan om weer te gaan beginnen...maar er zijn altijd leukere dingen te doen. Al voelen die vaak niet zo goed als ik me voel na het hard lopen!

6. ik ben een plaatjes kijker.

7. In 2010 ben ik 10 jaar getrouwd met Peter en dan al 17 jaar samen......en ik ben nog niet eens vreselijk oud....

8. ik houd van punniken, frunniken en krab ook graag aan korstjes.

9. Huishouden van Jan Steen en een slechte planner...

10. ik dacht altijd dat er bij ons alleen maar meisjes geboren zouden worden, maar ondertussen raak ik gewend aan voetbal, vechten en Motormannen!


Wil je nog meer weten, vraag maar raak!
