Here she is our sweet little Eliana

Welcome sweet little one... Eliana

What a day! My thoughts were this morning already with my friends Rien and Huguette because I knew the baby would arrive today. I had my cellphone with me all the time, because Rien had promised to call me and I sure was anxious to get that call. It was also my collegue her birthday, so we started the day pretty happy. The 1st eldery I had to wash was pretty happy too, in his mind he was doing his confirmation, and oh boy, what was he beaming with pride... just like a kid would do on such a day. At 09:29:57 Am the phone rang. Rien was telling me he had a nice little girl. 45cm and 2kg 890gr. I was the 1st one he called after the grandparents, and I must admit I felt pretty honoured. In the afternoon we went to the local mall. Shoping is always fun. As usual we started with a drink and cake. Then we did some shopping with the elderies. In the evening we still had a present for a couple that had had their anniversary. Sofie my collegue had worked on the picture-album we gave. It was an album with all pics from when they were little until now. The man got emotional, and I must tell, I had to try hard not to let my tears roll. But it felt good. Good to see that he was happy! So tuesday, janury 30 will be remebered as one of those days you want to treasure.

God bless

watching a dvd, reading a book....

This Dvd I got from Rien for my New Year. It's one I like very much. You won't believe it, but I'm pretty crazy about it, I did watch it 3 times in about one month time... and that's not me normally. Don'tworry, it will take a while now before I look to it again. I don't wanne get borred by it due to watching it over and over again in a too short period of time.


















I did read the book: "onwaarschijnlijke engel". It's the Dutch version of "unlikely angel". A very nice story. If you wanne know what's the book is about: click the following link: http://covbookstore.stores.yahoo.net/ianbyassm.html

It's one of those books you want to read out in one breath. Sure one that I recommend!

Daughter of China

I just finished this book. It's a Dutch one: "dochter van China". Translated it means: daughter from China. It's about a chinese girl that had to undergo persecutions due to her christian faith. It's a very touching story, I enjoyed reading it.

Cards

Receiving Cards, everyone likes it I suppose. I receive a pretty nice one yesterday. Just wanted to share it with you guys. I like it very much because it's kinda vintage style. I just love vintage!

Fun at the beach

What's there to do on a lazy sunday afternoon? Well, when the weather is not bad, it's always a good thing to go to the beach. That's what our little group decided to do. Since Griet is still here, it was nice to be with us 5 again. It was pretty windy, so, we took some shots with the camera and then rushed into a tea-room. And how does a hot chocolate with whipped cream and a Belgian waffle sound to you? To my stomach it sounded excellent!

God bless

Ladies and Gentlemen... I present to you... Isolde

We met each other online. I'm member of a Belgian scrapgroup, and she got member not that long after I was there. Since she lives not that far away we decided to meet. Now we go to crops together once in a while at Tiny's, our closest scrapbookshop. Isolde got the cool idea of taking her camera with her the last time. Here you see the picture of us... not scrapped yet. We will both scrap it, the result will be paged when this mission is fulfilled.

sales

Well, the beginning of January means always: SALES. The coolest stuff that I bought this week was new scrapstuff. I got a discount of 70% on several items, and that's a real nice thing. Today I went shopping for new shoes, and I also got me pants and a skirt.

Since I gained some weight lately, I'm trying to loose some, therefore I want to do some more exercise. I went swimming today, for the 1st time since a while and I started with 50 laps, not bad I think.

Well, it has been quite a busy week. Yesterday Rien, Huguette, Jeffrey, Griet and I went eating out... yeah, I know, most people won't do that in the middle of the week, but we did. It was quite a time ago since we had gonne to our traditional restaurant: Tafel 14 (called: the Gondel in the earlier days). It was a real cool evening. I enjoyed it to be together with us 5 again. The next time we go, we might have a baby or a toddler with us....

God bless

Happy New Year

I want to wish everyone a very happy new year. I hope 2007 will bring a lot of joy to everyone. I already have some neat things to look foreward too. Rien and Huguette, very good friends of me will soon become dad and mum. For the last day of 2006 I took a photoshoot of the big belly of Huguette. Still one month to go....
