Jarig!

Boas had his birthday on the 13th of july. We celebrated this in a corn-labyrinth. The kids also painted a wooden shoe!
How i like the colours of the corn and the skirt of this little miss!

Holiday!

It has been quit around here. I already got in this slow-motion, but we still had to finish school.
But now...








Finally....no more rush in the morning...we can really take it slow...
As you know i do like to collect and save things up....well...
it's too much actually. It's irritating me....finally....
All these things that don't have their own place.

So today i started to sort out all of these drawings of the kids.
I saved them up for 8 years!!!! I have started to put the nicest ones in a collage-book
and the rest is really history!

For sale

Remember last year...
we went camping in a beautiful garden! The house is for sale now.
You can find out all about it here!




After busy days still 5 days to go before holiday starts!




■

not yet

Holiday has started in some parts of our country, but we still have 3 weeks to go.
I have to think about some places to stay-over-night on our way to Italy.
Bed and breakfast on the countryside? Someone any suggestions?

The Play

Finishing touch...








It was amazing watching our daughter in the play of the red prinsess!

Made

Luna and I made some during the rainy-holi-days. We had some birthdays aswell!
:-)


And Stip likes to be around. Today it's her first day outside.
Hopefully she will find her way back!

Schaap

We worked hard with the four of us. Felting a sheep!
With all the dirt still in it...
I'll show you the result after the wool-washings in the machine.

Warffum

We also went to the open-air-museum of Warffum. A small farmers village in the years 1800-1900. I do like the basic surroundings.
The colours they used and the basic designs. It also made me think of the house in Sweden. This one of Alma and Betty and their 2 brothers Hjalmar and Adolf.

No, i do not like the animal for fashion!

Schier

Always fun!

Holiday

This was our last week of school-holiday before the summer holiday will start (end of july...) We have been busy! We went to Schiermonnikoog for one day wich is always great and too short!
Tomorrow 'normal' life will start again! Cleaning up all the "mess" we made!

20 years

After making garlands we realized that 2011 is our 20th anniversary!
We must think about a new place to go & celebrate our friendship!

♥

Here we were young and travelled Greece, Israel and Turkey for a couple of months!
The best place to sleep was the roof-top 'Al Arab' in the old town of Jerusalem!

nature garland

On friday there was a kids-party for celebrating Ot's birthday. The children had fun...and we got inspired, me and my dear friend.
So when the party was over....
we just sat and made garlands and garlands and more garlands....nature & recycling!

paper garland

Guusje made a tutorial which i used for Ot's birthday. We didn't made the stamps ourselves, but Ot & I had much fun stamping with the Djeco-stamping-set!



✂

HOERA!

Waking up by singing! Finally...5 years old today! We had a wonderful day in the sun!
'Stippeltje' had to stay indoors. She has to get used to her new house and her new friend Ot!







My mum spoiled us all by baking enough cakes, but this one....my sister made!
