Thank you all so much for your lovely comments about my last post :$
They mean very much to me =))


Weeks/days go by, somethings I think at the end of a day, what did I do today?? 
At the moment I'm totally hooked on a serie Once Upon a Time, it's about fairytales coming to life. Awesome how they do it with  all the different fairytales.. and with magic they do a lot.
Would it work on my laundry, house-cleaing??

A girl can dream right?? =))


Back to some crafting!!
I don't think I have talked about it here but I wanne change Noah his room in to a Starwars room.!!
And I wanne try and craft the most projects..

My first project is the 'Death Star'.
What is now finished.


It's not easy with filling to get it beautifull round, but no world is I think.. hihihi
I like it very much, and Noah loves it. Soon we will hang it in his room.

* * * ♥ * * * 

And I started a new crochet project too. a big projects.. and as some of you know.. I'm not good with big projects, I get tired to soon of it.. but I hope you will all help me finish it.. to so the smile on Noah's face
Here is the first start
And I need to make more then 500 squares like this one, and many more colors.

What will it be..  ???     ???
A Pixel blanket for Noah to keep him warm when he plays with his Lego at his desk

I've done more squares then this, but that I will save for a next post.

Last weekend it was Mothersday.
And I was so much suprised

Kids made me beautifull tissue boxes on school. 
With hubby they made me breakfast ( don't eat much in the morning, but that morning I eat for two.. lol) Kira was standing next to me, mommy eat, now this, and now that.

Hubby knows I only like Kids make me things, not buying things.. but not always he listen to me, so he let the post send me that big box... and when I opend it, a beautifull card and flowers where there.. so perfectly... so sweet.. (love you sweetie). And now two weeks later they are still pretty.. so I think it where very special flowers.. hihi

* * & * * 


You all now I'm a bit crazy right??
At school for celebrating the birthdays of the teachers they organized a foxhound.

And silly me..
Togheter with other moms we dressed up as different foxes, and the ids needed to look for us.. It was so fun.. You needed too see the people look at me... hihihihi

* * ♥ * * 

Last week we had the birthday of my godchild, and I was in a crafty mood, so with Kira we looked on Pinterest to see a lovely hairdo, and I started.
She played with the camera, but her hair was so cute
So with braided hair we both went to the party!

* * * 

With different weather day's we did different things.
 The playground across the street has also a field where kids can run, and as above fly a kite
Play games, eat in the garden on sunny days ( we didn't had much), bake.. etc etc.

And I worked in the garden






 It's growing so much!
And my lovely veggie-hurbs garden.. and above it the bee/hotel with hs first visitor.. hihi

It´s  a long post again, so time to stop.
I need to make some lunch now.

Hello everyone!
How are you all doing on this sunny ( here) Friday?

So many things we have seen, been true. Got two lovely ids.. Time goes on and on..
So now for the next 11 years.. hihi =))

And I thought this is a good reason to pic up my Soda piece again
So I started stitching.
The girl is almost done, the boy need to get a chest and then some back stitching.
The end is in sight.
Still love this piece very very much.
And I can tell you while I was stitching, my mojo came back

The May-vacation as at his end, and the weather was so strange.
I made pictures..
In 15 minutes time 2 day's ago I saw the sky many colors.
It was raining so hard, kids where finally getting better after being sick more then a week. So with this weather stay in side it not that bad..

Then 5 minutes later
Clouds where almost gone, sun was shining ( 2 minutes after I made the picture)
So Noah asked.. mommy can I play outside.. as I have seen the weather change so much that day I said to him wait a few minutes...
Tada... there the black sky is coming back again... you see the blue sky disapear right below.
These changes I saw a few day's  whole day long.. ;(.... but but but..

From today we will get better weather.. Tuesday we will get summer weather 26 degrees.. mmm 
Sound sso great.. but the week after that it will be gone again.. so we are going to enjoy it.

The garden is looking great
Today we have been working in the garden, with all the rain, the plants flowers and grass are growing, but also the weed.. work to do.
And kids where helping me.

I made some picture's of my blossom tree's the past couple of day's.






So many beautifull  flowers.

A while back we plants seeds. Today we planted a part in the garden.


They had so much fun doing it.. Now we need to do the veggies.

We also planted our new seeds also


So I think we will have enough veggies and herbs this summer I think..

One big one is many little ones.. hihihi
I started the first project.. for the next months not much season projects, but Noah's room projects.

And started again with double yarn and a bigger hook!
Hope this try will be better

!! Kingsday !!
Last week on Monday it was Kingsday, and we celebrated it, but just before I found a lovely braid in Facebook, that I needed to ty on Kira
me busy braiding
At that moment she wasn't really in the mood for a picture....... The back braid needed to be a crown, it didn't work like It needed to be but it looks great, and the front is just a tiny up-braid.
It was fun to do..


Then let's make a Pic of us just before we went in town
We all where in Dutch colors... Kira and I blue jeans, white top and red vest. Noah orange t-shirt
I made so many pictures, but just let you see a few. we had so much time..

I gave the kids some little money, it's tradition to have  ajumble sale ( vrijmarkt) in each town/city.
Kids bought great pieces. Noah bought so much .. he;s a great spender.. more for less ( not a quality he has from his parents... lol)

Kira wanted the face painting.. she asked for a purple unicorn.. her favorite.
To bad I needed to wok, there where so much great things to do. next year I;m going to ask a free day.. 

* * * 

Living nearby water gives fun moments

 trying to take a pic of the 4 , with wind a many hair.. lol...
But it's funny


Can you find the kids???
It was Kira's idea to go there.. we had fun.


* * * 
The the day after we went to the woods

And I started to notice kids where getting ill..
So the fun was for a short time. they weren't feeling well, and wanted to go home.

But first eating a big Big BIG pancake.. WE LOVE PANCAKES!!!

* * * 

While being sick there where short moments of playing, not much

And if Noah wasn't enough in the newspaper, we got a activiti-paper for the next 3 months. and who was on the front???
Sick under a blanket, but I got a smile from him...

* * * 

The plan to go to the swimming pool last week was put off till yesterday.
