Beach

Last week we went for holiday to Zeeuws Vlaanderen. A great week of enjoying sun, beach, a cool breeze, fun with the family, relaxing, making trips and searching for little treasures in the sand and water (we found lots of crabs, shrimps, shells and shark teeth!). It was fabulous!





Now back to work...

In the grass

Today we went to a family member's birthday and spend some hours in the sun. I loved laying in the grass - and the kids who couldn't resist jumping on top of me a few seconds later!
Have a great and sunny weekend.

DIY

Last two weekends I went to my parents house to do some DIY for them. I fixed the roof and painted a shed. It was hard work but I really enjoyed being there. And so did my two eldest boys. There is so much to see! And I loved spending time with my parents.

Dairy farm

Today we visited our friends who live on a dairy farm.
As a small child I regularly went to a dairy farm with my mom to buy fresh milk. I remember these moments well; the smell on the farm, the cows, the farmer... good memories...
It was great to spend time with our friends today, to chat, to have tea and to milk the cows (well, I only watched;-)

Explosion of creativity

I shared my new Ecoline with my boys (only the two oldest;-) and we had a great time playing with it. They never worked with it before so it kind of gave an explosion of creativity!





You'll have to wait to see what I worked on...

Amsterdam

Last Friday I spend a day in Amsterdam.
I enjoyed wandering around and spotting beauty, taking some time to write and draw and meeting a good friend for a coffee (and orangejuice). A beautiful day in a beautiful city!

Ecoline

One of the presents I got for my birthday was a book voucher, so I went to the local bookshop and discovered a box of Ecoline on top of a shelf! Great! In my mind I saw already some great things I could do with it. So I started...
