Spring has arrived ( again )


The last 1,5 week we had a lot of rain ( good for my garden ), but not for me.. lol!!
As off today warm weather is back, and the temperature will keep getting higher and higher!!
Yeah for us!!

How is the weather all over our globe???

^^^ 

I have been crafting a bit too between my spring cleaning ( yes still very busy on that) =))) 
Here the update of Jingles, I was stitching it this afternoon in the garden, while kids where playing there with friends
I need to order a few colors, as I;m almost out of them..

Still enjoying to stitch it very much..
I'm working on the biggest piece that there is..


^^^

My wedding garter is progressing very well..
I asked the sisters of the groom if this was what the wanted, and they liked it very much
It's a bad pic, I put in on my leg, as I have the same size as the bride.. hihi ;)))

This is the blue ribbon I'm going to use!!
Put a little bit in there, so I can see how it was looking


^^^

As the crochet butterfly's from my last post where so fun to make..
I made a few more, and send them too Valérie, as I know how much she love them.

Noah wrote inside the card..
She loved it so much!!


^^^

As I finished my first secret project, I could start a new project:
The strawberrie familie as it will look like when it's complete:
♥  isn't that cute????  ♥

It will be my summer project for the next 3 years..
It are 3 packages, and every year i will try and make one

The teapot I will save for last as the stitching is a lot, really a lot of work.
This is my first start:
I will start with the baby and then the mother... so more of that next time!!

^^^

I have been working in the garden this afternoon too.
I'm done back.
Here two pic's

 My sweet colleague always let me now when there are plants for sale in her town, also this boxwood ( buxus) where for sell, and see helped me with them..
I planted them..
hihihi I thought 20 was enough... as you see below... I'm missing 17..
So need to look for more..


And a close up from the beautifull white clematis..
The above flowers is 1,5/2 weeks in bloom by now.. I hope the third will be soon too.
I love to make a pic of them all..
So beautifull.
First year it gives me flowers

^^^


As I told you kids where playing so sweet this afternoon with a  friend..
I made some pic's


Look at them enjoying the weather..
Kira in our garden, and Noah in the playground across the street.


And yesterday went to our beautifull mill. kids loved it

I can't wait and see till it's finished, to see how it looks

Friday on the last day of Spring break we took the kids to Antwerp and went to the movie Tinkerbell.
They had such a blast.
It's really a awesome movie.
I have never seen my kids sit so still for such a long time.. hihihih =))))))
In the movie break they where playing with all the kids, many of them talked France or Belgian , but they talked and played anyway.
How great is that!!
If you like Disney movies, you really have to see this one

~***~

I'm working in my garden a bit too.
But now had 4 day's rain, really hope we will get better weather this week.
My beautifull clematis I planted last year is in bloom.
This picture is made just before the rain
Then we still had sunshine..
Maybe by showing this picture the sun will see it's missed.
When I just looked outside, the second one is in bloom.
Then only have to wait till the third.
Hopefully I get more next year!!



So time for diner and then back to bed to after that work my last night shift..
Then 4 day's off

Belated Happy Easter :(

Hi all,


I hope you all had a wonderfull Easter??
We did, only my Laptop broke down, so I was LONG without laptop, and couldn't post sooner =(((



We had a busy but fun Easter weekend, BIL came for the weekend, And MIL & FIL came on First Easter day, and I worked 2 night shifts
Kids where having a blast.

When I woke up, to go to work my sweet BIL brought a gift for me
They are so hot these wooden egg in the Netherlands, he was so sweet to ask a friend to make one for me.
Doens't it look pretty?? =))
♥ Such a wonderfull gift ♥

I was talking last I wanted to make some Easter craft for the kids, 1 is finished, the other I save for next year, too little minutes in a day
But these Easter hunt baskets got finished on time


The kids loved them and used them of them for the egg hunt
I made a little collage from our Easter weekend:


Aren't the kids pretty??
On the left above pic, you can see Noah was wearing a tie ♥ ♥


He looked so cute in it!!
And Kira in her new dress
Kira loves her bike riding and got a helmet

Beautifull eggs where painted, BIL loves coloring, and painted a sunshine on it, kids loved that we painted all 5 the eggs.
The next day the Easter bunny hide them ( Noah really believes it ♥)
And Noah had also the birthday party of his girlfriend

♥ * ♥

And as always I cooked.
For the brunch I made stuffed eggs
And for diner::
* Salmon Tartar 
* Beans in bacon, Fennel gratin, Potato croquettes and Chicken ham stuffed with goat cheese 
* Homemade cream slice with chocolate eggs

We all loved it!!
and I liked making it!!

°•♥ * ♥•°


Yesterday we have such a awesome beautifull weather.
I thought to do a picknick as lunch in the garden, it's what the kids really love to do
They had a blast!!

Saterday it's Kingsday
So I'm going to finally finish all the colors of crochet bracelets I started last year!
And Kira lost 2, so need to make them again..
Almost finished

I put the finished picture on Facebook, got such great comments and the question how to make them, I think this evening some will sit down with  there crochet needles and threads and start crocheting these bracelets :))))
I need to finish one more for Kira, and then put them togehter, and Miss Kira asked for a pink one too.
So you can understand what I will be doing tonight ♥

Have a great weekend all, and for the Dutch people:
 Have a great Kingsday!!
