Port of Holland (Hoek van Holland)

Yesterday we went to the Port of Holland to see if the Nortsea was still 'angry' at the beach..... :

as you can see it was furious!

The weather was cold and very windy (as you can expect) we could lean into the wind... A great afternoon spent in natur's glory!

Last week I guestparented Femke again. I picked her up at school and her respons on my new hairdo (color is darker) was: "Why do you have THIS hair???" On which I asked if she likes it, she reponded: "I find it stupid (stom)" ..... Well as long as she is honest, I think I have to accept :-)

She is getting used to the thursday's Tante Bonnette is joining her and finds it fun 'doing things together'. We had a great time baking 'pepernoten' :

Femke making dough .................... Doesn't it look yummie ???

Later (when the pepernoten were ready) Femke decided to give some pepernoten away to the neighbours (everyone 2 .... ), save some for the 'juffies' at school (teachers) for tomorrow, save some for mommy and daddy but have to give 2 away to Eline's 'juffies' (at kindergarden). So when we picked up Eline, Femke ran into the room screeming "I backed pepernoten myself" !!!

Eline gave us her most beautiful smile when we walked in and she was happy to go home with us. Lately she is very into posing for the camera so that left me with these:

Isn't she beautiful?

Next weekend I am going to scrap at the Alliance anual scrap-weekend-away (friday till monday)with 5 scrapgirls, all away from home and being ourselves (not being a wife, mom, sitter, cook, or whatever 'normal' life is expecting from us) ..... so looking forward to it ! ! !

Okay I am off to prep some kits and organize what I 'HAVE TO' bring ........

Take CARE!!!
