Back again

I had busy months, but I.m back again and now into the world of crochetting. It.s like a virus and I don.t mind to crochet with a 1.0 hook or a 12 hook.

Gifts from the sea

Barend loves to go fishing and I like to cook and.... together we also like to eat.......

Jan's first birthday

6 weeks to go and then Jan will be 1 year

Jan likes to be photographed, but Beau just sneeks away, but now yes 1 good picture.

Homemade, Gehaakte bloemen

Lovely to make this flowers like I used to when I was younger.

But crochetting is coming back.

Another day just enjoying our grandchildren

Party of the year 1969

My son in law had his birthday on saturday and for he is born in 1969 every gast was invited to dress like we did that year. Here are the results of a lovely evening.

Do I like eating what grandma cooked?????

Mammy know.s how grandma.s cooking taste and she is smiling..................................

Babysitting

Yesterday we had our grandparentsday with Beau and Jan. . Beau received her winterclothes that her mother had ordered for her and inspite of the warmth she had to put them on. Jan had that special smile on his face, normally he smiles that way just before he pulls of your glasses or pull your hair.

Trying to paint today........

How bad can life be????

Janet and Ann Graham Johnstone

My greatest treasure I bought a couple of years ago in an old bookstore. Dean.s giftbook of nursery rhymes with drawings of Janet and Graham Johnstone. Still I.m addicted to old childrenbooks and I like to visit fleamarkets to find new treasures.

Dutch landscape with cows

No painting today, but instead two jewels......

Today and tomorrow Beau and Jan staying with their grandparents. Beau, uncle Martijn en grandpa Barend were out crab fishing. And afterwards, yes then you are tired.

Holiday feeling in our own IJmuiden

In summer we don.t have to go away for a holiday for our town is so beautiful to be in summer. Beach, dunes, sitting on a terras in the early evening and see the sun go down.... what more can you want.

It.s nice to make a painting of our place...but still in progress

Visiting our great grandmother and father

Painting almost finished

A walk through the old city Enkhuizen

Diner at the beach

After taking care of our grandson for two days we treated ourselves with a diner at the beach. It seems the wetter is not so nice, but the temperature was fine for me.

Staying the night at my grandparents house

My moms and dads holiday is over now and they had to work again. Grandma Carla and Grandpa Barend are looking after me for two days and yes that.s like a party. I can stay up late, eat everything I like, pull the cats tail and with my weth cookie I make everything dirty. And when I pretend to cry they take me on their arm en kiss me, brrrrrrrrrrrrr

Very bad influenze
