191: new goodies

And no I don't mean scrapping goodies, this time they're camera goodies! Yoohoo...But first let me start with where I left of on my last blog post. I told you my guy bought me some presents and well they were also camera related. At first he gave me a one legged stand (tripod, so really a single pod! LOL) and then he gave me something and told me that was a thing I've been wanting for a long time...It was a camera bag! I loved it, but...to be honest that wasn't the bag I really wanted. It only had one big compartment for my camera stuff and nothing else. I told me him I so appreciated it and well just had to be honest. I had my eye on this other back for months and my parents told me I was getting that as my b-day gift. So I asked him to return it and was all good with it! Then of course I couldn't wait any longer to get the bag I wanted and went to this shoppe with my mom...here it is, and first let me tell you I love the fact it holds all my camera stuff and also has a compartment for some other things...like say a papers, a water bottle and more...here ya go: my new baby boy XL crumpler backpack! Then I also bought another goodie for my camera and well it wasn't a cheap one, but really need it, especially with my first wedding shoot coming up! Isn't it cool my first flash..the Canon speedlite 430 EX. I'm so happy and can't stop playing with it! :)

Then the to be wedded couple...Tuesday night I went there to take a photo of them for the thank you presents and well just couldn't resist scrapping it too! :) Here they are Marjolein & Kees. The wedding will be on June 27th and so can't wait! :) I really like how it turned out...Check my gallery for credits

Well this is the only page I've got to show you, since I just didn't have time to scrap! It's been too long and it sucks...so today I thought, the only thing I'll be doing is SCRAP! But plans kind of changed. With my b-day party coming up and well all upcoming weekends before we're going on our summer vacation are fully booked! So while scrapping I had this urgent feeling to start cleaning up in here and well overdid it a little! Have put everything upside down! LOL. Well I won't have a lot of time to clean before we leave on July 2nd to...??... and with all the weekends' booked I thought I'd better start while I have time today! So yeah...only scrapped one so far. Have got to take a shower now and make sure to get some food for us to eat tonight. Won't be a big meal since I got a softball match tonight too...we'll see what I can come up with! :)

So yeah still running the busy mode over here...Will be back this weekend for sure..only 9 more posts till my 200th post and well the party is in 2 weeks. The kit is going great btw and I'm sure you're all going to love it! Well for now have a great day and will see ya soon! Hugs!

190: only 10 more to go!!

To be honest I didn't think I was going to get to my 200th post deadline, but I'm almost there!! :) Well the party plans are almost ready and will make a cute ad asap! I'm working on a freebie kit and can't tell you everything other then it's going to be huge!! Will also have some awsome GC's to give away, a challenge and maybe a little quiz! My 2nd blogversary will be the weekend of June 14/15th and you don't want to miss this! :)

It's been a while since I last blogged, but still dealing with this live writer trouble. I just posted my problem at the blogger help group, since windows couldn't help me out! So I really hope this thing gets solved before my party!

Still running in overload...things haven't settled down yet. I do have some good news about our summer trip in July and that is that my guy got his Visa!! Yeah, that usre is going to keep me from not sleeping and worrying about that part of the trip! We will be leaving on July 2nd and will be flying home on the 30th. I so wish I ciuld tell you where we're going, but I just can't...I might share my excitement over at DST one of these days, cause I so want to tell you all! It's awsome!!!

Now before I'm leaving here...I have a few pages to share. Want to go to the craft shoppe in a bit to see if there are a couple of things I can add to my pretty kit! :) Oh right..I would love to know what you would like to see in a kit?? :)

Here we go...Just check out my gallery for all credits! :)
Have a fab day and will see you all soon! Hugs!

Oh one more little thing...my guy just called and said he bought me presents for my birthday already, and it isn't till June 8th! But he told me this is something I really want to have and said I'm going nuts when I see this. Luckily he told me that I don't have to wait till me b-day and I'l get them when he comes home from work! Is it 17:00 yet?? I so can't wait!!! woohoo! :)

So this weekend I'm going to relax and enjoy our summer weather!! Cause well it almost...actually it does feel like summer and it's going to be at least 25 degrees all weekend! Don't you just looove the sun?! So I'm defenilty going to work on my tan! hehe.

So my plans for today...Well I woke up at 9:00 cause I can't seem to sleep in late anymore, had the urgent need to start cleaning the kitchen. Say what?? yes, don't know what came over me, didn't even had tea before I started! LOL. It's now still cool in there, since the sun is on the the other side of the house, but by the end of the end of the day, the kitchen is too hot to even start cooking...hmm, I could always start dinner right now! LOL. See not sure what's up...hehe. The kitchen isn't done yet, but needed a littlwe break! On thursday I cleaned the balcony, so want to go to the garden center in a bit to get some flowers and plants...Other then that and getting some grocery's....I've got nothing planned, so I'm just going to enjoy the sun! :)

So before I'm going back to my kitchen cleaning needs, I've got some pages to show you...here we go! Heidi and Gina from weeds & wildflowers colabed and made this wonderful new kit: 'follow your bliss' I love the primair colors and the elements are so fun. here's Aatik our little nephew when we took him to the racing-circuit last sunday...
Then there's Max...one of friends' little boy. He goes to my daycare and took this photo while he was playing outside...Credits can be found here Last but not least is our new addition to the family...on thursday I had a chance to took some cute photos of her...since her older sister Imane (who's almost three) wasn't around. She so loves her baby sister and wants to be on top of everything!! LOL I saw this template used by Amandaresende and found out Michelle Filo made this and gave it away on her blog. I loved it and since acdsee's 2008 beta has this new cool feature to use templates I had to have it! :) Credits can be found here (uhm yes, had to buy Jofia's new kit! LOL

Just mind it's going to be huge post since I can't put two images next to eachother in this blogger thing. Just tried removeing and reinstalling live writer but didn't work!

First I went shopping at the lilypad and bought quit a few things there, but let me tell you,I went back again and bought kate's cute baby doodles. I'll show you why a little later! :) All things from the lilypad...
Well actually I bought all three sets, the girl, boy and nursery doodles...I just couldn't resist!

So about the doodles real quick before I'm going to enable you even more... LOL. Well yestrday right before I went to the weeding party, my SIL called if I could go to the midwife with her, since she was two days late she had to go for a check-up. The lady said everyhting was fine and it would be at least 4 days more. Well as always and tell me why, but I always dream about this stuff and told my SIL, it was going to be born today! Then around 10:30, when I was just up from bed...she called and was so excited. It's here...it...wel let just say SHE's here!! It's a girl and of course I had to go see right after she got home today. So it's a NSD baby, well never mind, for me she is anyway!! :) Then from Brenn Boone's store...Wich I never shopped before, but had to take a look when I saw that she had a 50% sale! Who wouldn't! LOL
Then I saw this cute kit the other day by Anja J and well for less then 2$ I needed it, although that's what I told myself! LOlOne of my new fav designers now-a-days is defenitly Birgit Kerr! :)Then this beautiful kit by Flergs from scrabookgraphicsWell that was all I bought so far...but I'm not really done I guess! I just went to shabby pickle for the first time and those new designers...well actually everyone of them has got talent!!! I'm sure going to shop there too and will be going there a lot! hehe...

Well I just finished a page with some of my new goodies. This is Imane, the big sister of the little baby. Yes I still say baby, since they haven't decided on a name yet. Well they have two..the kids call her Doenja and mom wants to call her Hedah..or nedah...lol, not sure about that! Anyway here's my sweet little niece (btw not sure if you're interested but I've been there when she was born!) She turns three in AugustWell I think that's it for todaym, I just keep on rambling!

187: Queensday, wedding, NSD & more...

How's that for a title...let me start at the beginning, but first I want to say sorry for not being here. I just didn't feel like blogging in blogger and well my new pc isn't here yet. The one I wanted was sold OUT! :( But it will be here soon!!

yesterday it was queensday and had a lot of fun...On tuesday night the partay started in the city and there was music everywhere, flea markets and loads of happy people!! It was great. Didn't took any photos though, yes...so not me! LOL. But it was fun...Since we were home a little late, like uhm 4:30 AM..LOL, we slept in late untill someone called me and woke me up. We had plans, but well waking up at 12:30 was not one of them and so we stayed home for a while and went to my parents and the cityhall to have a drink over there.

Today, I finished two QP albums, wich will be in Micheline SSD store on saturday. I love how they both turned out. Made 2 QP's for W&W and some cards!

Tomorrow I've got a wedding of one of the girls from softball and can't wait! It's going to be so much fun...In the afternoon we're going to the city hall where they're getting married and will await them outside with a bow of baseball bats! She'll love it. At 20:00 the big party starts. So it will be a busy day for me...

And guess what saturday is?? YES, NSD...finally! I so looked forward to this and saved tons of money and will go shop till I drop...or till my pc says, that's enough! LOL. We'll see, I saw there are lots of sales, challenges, chats and more fun stuff like that! I will be back on saturday with some of my new goodies, hopefully some LO's and just fun stuff! :)

Now some pages I made last week...or was it the week before??!! All I can say is that life it too busy at the moment! Yuck!

First off, two pages I made with Gina Marie's new kit called: 'the happy garden', wich you've got to see!!!! On saturday two more packs will be added and of course they're also having a NSD sale on saturday!


journal reads: the sun comes out from hiding, the snow melts and the grass cnahges from brown to green. And you can feel the air getting warmer as each day passes. Spring also has that distinct smell that can't compete wit any other season. Everyone seems to be happier and more upbeat during spring...it brings new life and for some "love" is in the air.

two more pages for today...
My sweet lil' brother and his love...Journal reads: you two are such a sweet couple and always love seeing the two of you together. You care so much for eachother and seems like you almost never have a fight. You are the perfect match and I'm so glad my little brother found the love of his life!! I love you two!

Ok peeps, I'm off for today...will be back asap and hopefully with some photos of the sweet bride! :) Have a great day and remember...NSD is almost here!
