It's raining outside...

- so what's better than having a great afternoon indoors, with hubby on the guitar, the girls playing with LEGO Friends and drawing on the walls (next room to be done up) and myself knitting kitchen towels.

Not bad at all :-)

I wish you all a lovely weekend.

Mission accomplished

I don't know if you remember the card I made for my lovely sister who has moved into a new house - and more so the missing present I was going to get.

That mission is now accomplished! And with the help from my to fantastic girl, I didn't have to send it to her without a personal touch. They both desided to make some hama-bead-creations for their favourite aunti and here are the results.

 

I have to say that they went to great lengths in their attempts not to smile

- but luckily it didn't work.

Orienteering

After my last post, Louise asked me if we didn't take any pictures - and for once my dear husband actually brought his beloved camera.

It started of a bit foggy but by the end of the 5k the sun came out and it turned out to be a lovely Octobers day.

Here are a couple of shots from the day!

 

The big girls running off lots and lots of energy pretending to be witches

 

Freya spotting the next post and therefore the one who gets to stamp the card

 

 

So this was the last event of the season, but the first time Freya, who is three, walked all 5k by without her pushchair - WELL DONE!!!

Saturday family time

I am so lucky that both my girls take after me in the crafty department - put some hama-beads, paper and glue or just coloring pens in front of them and they are off. It's fab to see them develop their own styles - yet very hard NOT to guide them too much and make them do things my way :-)

Sometimes - not very often - but sometimes I manage to be a little bit organised - and normally when we are going to all the birthday partys the girls are invited to we more or less go and buy the present  on the way there... BUT NOT THIS TIME.

So with the presents already bought I thought it would be nice for the girls to make their own gift wrap, and with my newly invested small ink pads and my stamps I they made the most gorgeous wrapping paper.

I am so ready to give the wrapping paper for Christmas a go.

My husband was watching from the kitchen - he volunteered do the dishes all by himself not to get involved in the potential mess :-)

Until next time...
