Виды для Костика

Костик, по твоей просьбе, которую я давно обещала выполнить, начинаю с наших весенних видов:
Это мой сад, он у нас на нескольких уровнях, Это его второй уровень. Тропинка выполнена мной лично в стиле, проломай себе дорогу сам. Кусты обрезались мной в январе при температуре +17!!! Быстрее бы зима, что ли. От весенних заморозков я уже вяну! :)
А энто - вид с него же, моего любимого второго уровня нашего сада. С большим зумом, конечно. Вид на Монте Дженерозо. Кусты рододендрона наши. :)
А это муж, вооруженный и очень опасный, борется с кустарником. Страшен в работе! Никаких половинчатых мер! Все супер серьезно!
А вообще-то он у меня ОООчень высокий, правда ведь?! :)

Waiting patiently for spring to finally establish here, I went for a walk actively looking for any signs, had a nice walk, what amazing views we have here. Wow. I still can't get bored by them after 3 years. Would you with these amazing views around you?! (The LO above is made using all sorts of goodies by Tracey Gilbert Monette).

The other musician

The other child of mine plays music without giving it high spirited names. She plays her moods. It's a shame I have started recording it a bit too late though. Missed a very beautiful first part.

the sky of God

The little one, my five year old made me laugh so much on Monday that I did indeed ended up crying! She called the opus "The Sky of God", do not mix it up with the "Injured Cat" by Sir. Bad-Lee Hurt!!! There is a subtle difference. Honest! ;) The crackling noise you hear, is me trying to choke on my giggles, I felt like such a bad person to laugh at her first composition, especially the one she announced as The Sky of God. But I couldn't stop myself, by the end of it I was in floods of tears, I stopped filming, and she saw my wet eyes, touched my cheek and said: Was it a little bit sad for you, Mummy?!

Snippets of life

А в это время во Франции...

Пока мы ехали через Францию по дороге из Швейцарии к ЛаМаншу, вокруг нас были необыкновенные виды. По левой стороне шоссе все было покрыто снегом и льдом, деревья в изморози и все сверкающее ледяными искрами, по правой же стороне дороги зеленая трава, теплая на вид земля и не следа зимы... Дети были в восторге. Да и родители не отставали...

На одной из остановок папа пытался быть дедом морозом...

В снегу было, мягко говоря, прохладно, по словам нашей старшенькой...

Scrapping Christmas photos.

Christmas has been and gone, and left heaps of photos to sort and scrap and memories to bottle and store :) I have picked up a few of the Quick pages from the talented girls at http://weedsandwildflowersdesign.typepad.com/ and made some pretty pages with all of us, celebrating Christmas 2007. It was nice for all of us to see Granny and Grandpa. I hope your Christmas was special too.
Here is the little one, waiting for Christmas to finally arrive on Christmas Eve. She is ready, so why isn't it coming yet? And why is it raining anyway? She wanted snow, and she clearly has asked Santa for a white one this year... :)

Here she is helping Grandpa put the finishing touches to the tree, just to make sure it is perfect.



Have you had a marvellous Christmas too?! We sure hope so!
Special thanks and wishes of success to the girls from Weeds and Wildflowers, I have given in to the temptation and bought the pack of the Quick Pages from them in the end, to make my collection complete, I hope you like them too!
