Bucket List – My Birthday Surprise

Settle in, this is going to be a long one… About two months ago my friend Penny told me her husband was going away for a weekend in May, she was unloading her son with her sister-in-law and asked if I wanted to have a girl’s day.  I’m always up for a girl’s day so I promptly marked it on …

Noah’s Color Me Blanket

When Noah was two years old I started a blanket for him for Christmas. I really enjoyed making it but then like with a lot of projects I came to a part of the construction that was annoying and tedious and I put it away.  He turned four this weekend and for the last 1.5 years I’ve said “I really …

KreaDoe 2011

This weekend I went to a giant craft fair with my two friends Penny and Genevieve. It’s a yearly fair that takes place in the Jaarbeurs in Utrecht and you can find supplies and workshops for pretty much any craft you can think of.  Of course, I had my trusty little point and shoot along with me! If you were …

Penny’s Race Day

Last weekend I went to watch my friend Penny run her first 5k.  This was a huge thing for her and she had been working incredibly hard to get there, so there was no way I could miss it!  I was so proud of all she has achieved over the last while, and I couldn’t wait to be there screaming …

Bucket List – My First Pedicure

Last week my friend Penny and I got together for pedicures.  It was my very first pedicure ever, can you believe it?!  It’s something I’ve always wanted to do but either I didn’t want to spend the money on it or I was freaked out about people messing with my feet. Penny kept pushing me on it, so I finally …

Cecab Rotterdam vs Groove Kings – A Face Off!

Saturday my friend Penny and I went into Rotterdam for a girl’s day before she leaves for holiday to California for three weeks. We shopped, had lunch, shopped, sat on some terraces and shopped.  It was a beautiful with our first 20+ degree weather of the year. At the end of the day we went to watch a display that …

Rainy Day in ‘s-Hertogenbosch

Well, as promised after the Divas Day Out in Den Bosch I finally got around to working on the photos.  I am glad I didn’t bring my good camera, but they didn’t turn out too bad with the point and shoot. There was shopping. Lots and lots of shopping… It started at LUSH where Paule and Penny were quite keen …

Three Divas Hit Den Bosch

Today my friends Penny, Paule and I went for a girl’s day out in ‘s-Hertogenbosch (or Den Bosch, as most people call it).  It was cold and rainy but we made the best of it and shopped, ate and just enjoyed each other’s company. Much like our visit to Bergen op Zoom we had a lot of fun browsing through …

30 Days of Truth: Day 24

Ugh, I’ve been dreading this one.  I’m really not a big music person… there are a lot of songs I can sing along with but ask me who sings them or what they are called? Forget it… I’m not going to do a playlist for just one person, because I’ll never come up with the songs but I’ll just give …
