Day #93: Sundown!

Well the sun was so bright and beautiful right before going down and I just had to take a photo! It was like this yesterday too, but all the photos I took, turned out awful and so I gave it another try tonight and more statisfied now then I was yesterday :)

Although it's still not quiet as beautiful as it was in real live, but this will do for today!

Got a pretty relaxed weekend ahead and look forward to it. Just one more week of work next week and then we both got a week off...well actually I've got 1,5 week off and I so need it! I'm going to spend extra time on my photography and photo subjects that week and so look forward to it! :) See you all tomorrow -x-

Day #91 & 92: why am I still inside??

Really the weather is amazing and the sun is shining, but I haven't been outside so far and it's already 15.00!! Really I don't even have the intention to go outside and don't asl me why!! LOL. I cleaned the house this morning and had tons of online tasks to do, like judging the week 1 pages for the  'So you think you can scrap' challenge, blog about weeds & wildflowers 2nd anniversary party & lots more...

Yesterday was April fools day and din't played any jokes, the only thing I, well we did (as in A5D site CT-ers) was switched avie's and I can tell you it was so fun, but confusing! hehe. I had a great day at work and went to the playground with the kids..so wish I could show you some of those photos, but I'm just not allowed!

After the little ones were a sleep, I played a little game with 2 of our 3,5 yr. olds... and thought it would be funny to play a little tricky thing with my camera, since it was april fools (LOL) and make the front item turn out blurry and the back one sharp as can be...I love how it turned out:

Now Today's photo, uhm yeah an inside photo...although it should've been an outside one! :) Anyway a few weeks ago I ordered my first digital page on canvas and so loved how it turned out, I came up with this idea of printing 4. One for each season... The first one I printed was Fall and last week I ordered one for Spring. So now I only have got to make pages for Winter & Summer... If I only had thought of this earlier, while it was still winter..cause I don't think I've got a photo I like for that..and summer is coming so that won't be a problem at all! :) So here are the first two I ordered on Canvas...

I've been bad with leaving love and I'll promiss to leave tons tonight. My colleague is coming over in a bit to create a card for a party...so gotta go before she's here! Oooh that's the doorbell, ciao!

Day #88, 89 & 90: Beauty fair...

Ok last Sunday my mom and I have been to this beauty fair to get my eye-brows tattoo'd...well they say it's permanent make-up and it will fade in like 6 months or so...so it won't be there forever, but I love it and really it didn't hurt as bad as I thought... When she started all I asked was: 'Is this all??' uhm yeah! Well I did hurt a little after she had been working it for a bit and my skin became sensitive...but like we always say: ' who ever wants to be pretty, needs to take the pain with it!' Anyway here's the lady working on my eye-brows... it isn't the best picture though, MOM you need to practice more often taking photos :)

So we're still staying on the beauty subject for a bit... yesterday I took this photo of the yewelry I bought at the fair... I'm so in to spring right now, especially wqith the weather being beautiful the past two days... I bought some pretty necklaces and bracelets in spring/summer colors, here they are:

For today's photo I took a photo of my eye-brows, all *new'... LOL!  I love how it turned out, but it's a bit of work for like a week or so. It can't get wet and I need to put this special greasy cream on there three times a day. So I might look a bit glossy now.

They say when it's all healed, it will turn out a bit lighter. It is possible little rinds will develop there, but we'll see how it goes. When my skin is all healed and it looks like it is supposed to look, I'll take another photo! :)

For now have a great day/night where ever you are... I'm exhausted and going to bed early tonight. I'm not going to soccer practice tomorrow, so you'll see me then probably! -hugs-

Day 86&87: B-day boy and new shoes!!

Yesterday Ruben, my colleagues' little boy celebrated his 3rd birthday with us at daycare. It was fun and off course a birthday boy can't go without a cute birthday hat. I asked him what kind of hat he wanted, well what do you think, he said?? CARS of course and so this is what I made him :) He loved it!!

Today was a busy day... I do have to say I feel a bit better today after tons of steaming, paracetamol, nose spray and a good night sleep! :) In the morning I went to get my eye-brows done so they would be perfect & straight for tomorrow... Cause tomorrow I'm going to get my eye-brows tattoo'd, finally!! :) I am a little nervous, but I'm sure it will work out fine...Anyway after I got those done I went to the shopping mall for a bit, cause I really wanted to some new shoes. I've been wanting new black boots, but never found the perfect ones. Today I did... and I love them! They're not too high, so also perfect for spring, here they are:

Aren't those cute?? :) Well after I got back home, Abdel was home too. We went looking at several houses we liked, since it was open house day for sellers. We went at two houses and one appartment. We prefer a house, but I kind of fell in love with the appartmen, although there are a lot of minor things about the whole thing. I mean the house was pretty, but the appartment idea. So we're just going to keep looking! :) After that we did some grocery's, got some fish and went home... Later in the afternoon we went to see Abdel's dad in the hospital...he's doing a bit better, but they want him to stay till at least Monday. Got some diner and here we are... Going to scrap a bit and then spending some quality time with my guy....

Tomorrow I'm going to this beauty fair with my mom...getting my eye-brows tattoo'd and from there on we'll see and just going to have a fun mom and daughter day! :) Will probably see you tomorrow night or Monday -enjoy your weekend, X-

Day #84&85: Got the flu???

Ok I think it's official that I again caught a nasty flu! I slept horrible last night, you could say I haven't slept at all...my throat just hurted too bad!!! Yesterday I had a feeling that it was finding it's way to my body, cause I had a headache and just felt icky. I did went to soccer practice at night, but when I came home I felt worse & worse... My photo for day #84 is none other then my indoor soccer sneakers:

So here I am today... I'm so glad it was my weekly day of today and I could just relax and hang around. I watched a lot of TV laying on the couch, but also made two pages. I wanted to steam to make all the icky stuff in my head drift off (can't think of another way to put it right now!! LOL). I bought this stuff 'Dampo' to steam with the last time I had a flu, but I had no clue where I'd put it... searched everywhere, the medicine cabinet, the closets, the kitchen, the bedroom... Really everywhere. I gave up and then when getting a vitamin sprakle tablet I found them... uhm yeah in the medicine cabinet, where I'd searched for like three times!!! DUH! Anyway I boiled some water, sat down and started steaming. I feel a bit better right now and will do it again before going to bed tonight! So here's my photo for today...pooring the bolied water into my (ok borrowed it from my mom and never gave it back, untill she said I could keep it..thanks mom, it came in handy today!!) little steamer.. The yellow stuff you see in there is 'Dampo'

Well just hope I feel better tomorrow and hope I can get some good old sleep!! See you Saturday, cause I've got a soccer game tomorrow night, unless this flu is getting worse and I'm still sick...just hope not! :)

Day #83: A quick post...

I'm kind of tired, since I haven't slept well last night... Abdel's dad got admitted to the hospital again yesterday afternoon. They... again said he had a light stroke, but there just must be something else wrong with him...His arm keeps falling out of use and well they're keeping him there again and on Thursday there will be a meeting with some doctors and see if there's anything they can doo, to make it better... I do hope so!!

Well anyway here's my photo for today... I'm kind of on a diet since last week and it's going quiet well, although I do need some sweet stuff now and then. Once a day I allow myself to grab a small hand of these popped rice things....

They're called Manna and I've loved these since I was a little girl. I think my dad loves these too, but not really sure! :) They're covered with a thin layer of colored sugar, so only a few a day if I really need some! :)

Well will see you all on Thursday, going for the ussual wednesday recipe tomorrow... Work, diner at my parents, and soccer practice. Have a great dat tomorrow :)

Day #81&82: after sun comes rain??

Well yesterday was a beautiful sunny day, we spend at the beach. This morning it looked like it was going to be another beautiful day, but around 11.00 it started raining...somehow it seemes like the kids had this feeling too today, cause they were soo busy and listening...no way!! That wasn't the deal today, I don't have this a lot, but today I was soooo relived when the clock hit 5 'o clock!! :)

First let me show you the photos from the beach from yesterday... we went with my parents, my GM, my brother and his GF. Again Baco, a friends' little doggie came along with us, but this day it's not going to be a photo about him, but what the beach is all about... Sand, shells & more... I found this pile wich included shells, sand, feathers and some little branches drifted to the beach by the sea...

Now here are just some randoms photos: beachy things, photos of us and kite surfers...

Now on to Toyda photo, day #82... Last Saturday I bought myself some pretty tulips, since obviously my guy hardly...ok say never brings home any flowers. And especially now, with it being spring I love to have some flowers in the house! :) So here ya go:

Well will see you all tomorrow and have a great night! -hugs- 

Day #80: A new Salon!

Last week one of my colleagues opened up her own, new pedicure & manicure salon. Besides her new salon she still keeps working 2 days at daycare with us. She asked me to take some photos for her website. So today was the day. We met up at 11.30 at her house & salon and I was totally blown away, it looks awsome and so professional!!! So here are a few photos I took, first off my photo for today...

Now a few random shots I like :) Oh that's her on the second photo, Bahia...Oh yeah, I love the purple!!! hihi

 

After we took some photos, we went to city plaza together, a shopping mall in the neighbour hood. First we went to the market and got some fresh goodies, like mint, chicken (wich my guy and I had for diner, boy was it delicious!!) and then did some cloth shopping. Bought myself a new set of lingerie, 2shirts and the cutest sweather for ma man! :) We had some snacks, a drink and after worths I bought myself some pretty tulips. It was a fun, relaxed day and I loved it!

Tomorrow we're going to the beach with my mom, dad, my lil bro and his GF and so look forward to another relaxed day. I just hope the sun stays out and it's not too cold! :) Now off to leave tons of lovin' around, cause I've been kind of lazy the last week! -xo-

Day #79: I'm addicted...

to the sun that is!! I feel so good the past couple of days... Although I do have had a few nasty headaches the last three days, but somehow the sun is making it all up! Last week I took a photo of these daffodils for the W&W photo promt challenge I hosted, but well since I don't like to cheat I went back there today and took another photo. I just love how they stand next to the road in this bend....

They're there every year, but this was the first time (ok 2nd if you count Monday) I took the time, pulled the car over and took some photos. Last year I wanted too, but when I finally decided to stop there, they were all dried out!

Will be back tomorrow and have no idea for my photo yet. I do have tons for Sunday, cause if the weather stays like this we're going to the beach with my parents, my brother and his GF Kiki. So please sun, stay around!!! see you tomorrow :)

Day #77&78 Fit or not???

Uhm not!! Last night we picked up the WII fit at my brothers' cause I want to practice on it a bit! Here it is:

So of course I had to try it out today... Well I was kind of shocked, well not that I don't know that I'm a little overweight and the my BMI is too high for what it should be... But this was just with your nose on the facts, right? I do feel good though about starting this and I'm going to try to work on it at least 30 minutes every day! Today I took the test and trained for 40 minutes and it felt great. Althouhg I think I'm going to get pains in my side from hoola-hooping!! LOL. Anyway my WII fit age is.....

33!!!! So I'm 6,5 years too old, but I'll get to my normal age asap!! It's a fun practice and I think I can keep up if it's only like 30 mins. a day... Although I'm very busy at nights, so we'll see! :)
