monsieur biscuit

Unfortunately our holiday in france came to an end. I like to take home little souvenirs and the supermarket is my favorite place to score nice things, everywhere we go I love to look around in supermarkets. Besides a lot of other things (cupcake forms, barbapapa stuff etc.) I found these lovely biscuits from bonne maman ( a brand I love). the little fellows not only taste good, but inside we also found a nice little coloring paper...

collector

I love my mother's collection of old religious statues. every year we come it's extended.

holiday

this is how we spend our days. besides swimming, playing outside and doing nothing we drive around the house with the little tractor and pick flowers from the garden.

surfaces

fascinated by beautiful hidden surfaces

knight for a day

this week we visited a castle where the boys could dress up. they became a knight for a day and loved it.

enjoy

we're spending our holiday in my parents house in france and it's so nice to spend most of the time outside.

celebrating

we had a lovely birthday party....and roel is still 27..it's unbelievable. the boys decorated the cupcakes.

for my love

today is my love's birthday and we're celebrating it in france. since he has a new gadget (not that he is such a gadget guy, but he followed a course in switzerland and the textbook was an Ipad, that's much better than taking a dull ring bander home). as a gift I made an Ipad sleeve (i'm starting to get good in making these sleeve things). Hope he likes the embroidery I used for it.

new shoes

actually he didn't need new shoes, but I couldn't resist these cute ones...luckily he loves them too..

kermis

together with opa and oma we celebrated the beginning of summer holidays and opa's birthday. we had so much fun, the bump cars were by far the most favorite.

embroidery belt

Thanks Wendy from Regina and Guusje for a good idea. I tried to make a belt out of embroidery left overs. Like this first result so far...

celebrating summer

love this time of year
