The fun begins

We baked christmas cookies today. My younger son was in children´s church. And in the afternoon my two sons and I played together with their lego

BOPKI PROJECTs

Zusammen mit bopki dürfen 5000 Frauen sechs Wochen lang die WELT am SONNTAG testlesen und mit den Zeitungsmachern austauschen. Und ich bin dabei.

Mein umfangreiches Startpaket habe ich vor einigen Tagen schon enthalten. Darin waren u.a. zum Weitersagen und Weitergeben an Freunde, Bekannte, Kollegen und Verwandte

60 Gutscheine für jeweils eine Ausgabe von WELT am SONNTAG.

Das Exemplar zum Testlesen fand ich nun heute früh in meinem Briefkasten und ich war total überrascht, wie dick die Ausgabe war.

Aber das ist noch nicht alles!!

Ich hatte Glück und bin bei einem weiteren bopki Project dabei.



350 Frauen dürfen die erste Kinderzahnbürste von Phillips die Sonicare for Kids testen.

Das Startpaket war sehr umfangreich und hat u.a. neben einer Philips Sonicare For Kids Schallzahnbürste auch 20 zusätzliche Bürstenköpfe zum Aufstecken beinhaltet. Diese sind zum Weitergeben an Freunde, Bekannte und Kollegen mit Kindern gedacht.

Die Sonicare zeichnet sich durch eine kindgerechte Handhabung aus, ist elektrisch und wiederaufladbar und besitzt eine patentierte Schalltechnologie. Desweiteren gibt es altersgerechte Bürstenaufsätze, austauschbare Blenden, einen Timer und sie hat ein ergonomisches Multi-Grip-Design. Darüber hinaus gibt es einen KidPacer der lustige Melodien spielt und die Kinder ermuntern soll, die verschiedenen Zahnbereiche zu putzen.

Bin gespannt, wie das bei meinen Kiddies ankommt und werde wieder berichten.

New skiboots

We had mild and sunny weather today!

In the morning we went to the post office to mail the parcel for my younger son´s girlfriend.

Afterwards we went to a sports outfitters for buying new ski boots for my elder son. Both kids need also new skies - unfortunately. So our trip was more expensive as we thought.

We had lunch in an Italian restaurant with mussels, calamari and pizza.

In the afternoon we decorated our stairs with christmas stuff.

In the afternoon both children had a rehearsal for the christmas fairy tale and afterwards swimming lesson.

My elder son is drawing... a christmas gift.... maybe for me (so he said)

365/312 until 365/319 and BEAUTIFUL MOMENTS IN AUTUMN AND WINTER

This week I must use a picture from autumn 2008 for Katinkas project "Beautiful moments in autumn and winter" - because of our terrible weather we are having the last days/weeks. No sun, always grey, wet and rainy.

Autumn 2008



Pictures from Sunday 08-11-2009 until Sunday 15-11-2009


Turkish apple tea with cinnamon

Childrens church in the morning with my younger son, whilst my elder son had a soccer match. They lost 3:1 - the goal was from my son - and he was hurted at his knee.

After lunch we made a careful walk through town and had a cup of coffee and Turkish apple tea in a café




The results of my elder son´s swimming competition

Both boys had a swimming competition. So we spent the whole day in a swimming bath round about 8 hours.

It was the first competition for my younger son after his flue disease. He started for breast stroke, back stroke, freestyle and relay team. He got three times the silver medal.

My elder son started for breast stroke, back stroke, freestyle, butterfly, alternate layers and relay team. He got three times the gold medal, one silver medal and one bronze medal.

ESSENCE OF THE DAY - PROJECT 2010

Gabs wanted to start this project for 2010 when she´s finished with her project 365 for 2009

But she was in such a creative mood that she thought she´ll kick it off today – as a little warming-up

So here is what this project is for:

See at least one positive thing in every day – no matter how badly the day was - note this positive thing.

It can be just a word, a sentence – keep it less time-consuming!

Blog about it – so we can all share our positive vibes to make this world a positive place!

If you want to: scrap a page about it but keep it clean and simple

That’s all – easy and simple but so positive

Let Gabs know if you wanna join the fun and grab the logo on her blog, if you want.

She also has a project E-group at digi.scrap.friends where you could join in

Saturday 07.11.2009 Day 311

Craftsman in the field

Picture processed with action from Pioneer Woman

Another cold, grey and part time rainy day.

My younger son and his father fixed up a CD shelf, in the morning. My son is many-sided interested and has fun in varied things (garden, kitchen, laundry or as today being a craftsman).

He wants to do all these things alone and he can - And he do all these things conscientious and dedicated!!

Love you my diligent, social, helpful and romantic cutie!!

Later I had an extensive conversation with the private English tutor of my elder son and afterwards I did the grocery shopping.

My elder son had a soccer match and my husband accompanied him. They lost the match 6:2 - the two goals were from my son.

Afterwards we had a late lunch at J*oeys with yummy pizza.

In the afternoon my younger son and I baked glogg muffins (for German readers Glühwein).

CU tomorrow!
