Twelve Days of Christmas

x-mas!

I realize the official Twelve Days of Christmas start on Christmas Day, but mine started on our -pre Christmas Drinks Party- at our flat and lasted until New Year’s Eve, as this was the time I was feeling particularly Christmassy!

We invited Belle to come on the morning of our party, to help us decorate our tree as ‘we didn’t know how to do it’. Belle was happy to

Snowstorms and frozen waves

WeekOfSnow19

First week of December 2010

Although it was forecast, it still sprung upon us as a surprise. It left as quickly as it came and it all started a week ago on Wednesday… It had already snowed a tiny bit and Mike managed to convince me to do a BMF session in the snow. He said it wouldn’t be too cold, but he couldn’t have been more wrong! It took me three hours to warm up again after rolling around in the snow for an hour and just as I had thawed, it started and we saw it all happening from our kitchen window… it started with a few new flakes, but soon it was snowing hard and fast!

Barbados Hilton Hotel

Mid October, so only a month and a half ago, I FINALLY, after two years of being camera-less, treated myself to a new camera. Spurred on by Mike’s enthusiasm and expertise on the Canon EOS (he owned a 450D and now has a 50D and several lenses), I decided to

We love our amazing sea view flat

Hello everyone and once again, sorry for being so long. I often think up new ideas and structures to make this website more interesting but lately I have not been able to implement these ideas for two very founded reasons: I have been asked to make/write a website for Mike’s mum, who is an amazing artist and is wanting to have an online forum for namely her children’s alphabet posters and personalised framed name prints-possibly later her postcards, paintings and other art.

Senlis – kleine meneer van Dijk bezoeken!

Senlis-Teun-Geboren

Senlis 18 – 21 juni

Wat een verassing, kleine meneer van Dijk heeft zichzelf een maand te vroeg aangekondigd! Hij heet Teun en het gaat goed met moeder en zoon. Zoals ik al vertelde in het stukje over Snow Patrol, kregen Mike en ik dit geweldige nieuws in Glasgow te horen. Dezelfde dag hadden Cindy en ik al bekeken wanneer we samen vrij zouden zijn om langs te komen, want we konden natuurlijk niet wachten om Teun EIN-DE-LIJK te ontmoeten!!
