Sorry, sorry, I will be better next year!!

I have been a really bad blogger the last few weeks!!! I know I might have let you down!

But (like most of you) I was extremely busy the week before Christmas, so I planned to catch up when the boys had their vacation, boy was I wrong thinking I would have more time on my hands by then!! Well I couldn't have know both of them would catch a stomachfluw (aaargh why do they get that in their vacation) that just won't go away!!! Today is the first day Finn feels a little better, I was happy Rick felt better a few days ago!!! So I spend my time cleaning toilets, washing bedsheets, making tea and buying biscuits, o and I did some dt work I really needed to do!!!

Tomorrow is my birthday (can't believe a year has gone) and I have to clean around a bit and do some shopping and buy loads of oliebollen (kind of beignets with currants we eat at new yearseve) so today is a short post!

But I really wanted to let you know that over at These Are A Few we are looking for 3 or 4 new DT MEMBERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A lot of snow and no creating at all!!!

Hope you are all enjoying the last week before Christmas and hope you are not to stressed!!

Vacation has started overhere and although I planned to do some creating every day, I haven't done a thing!!! I am just to busy with, shopping, cooking, cleaning, entertainning the boys, shoving the snow, well you get the picture I guess to you it sounds very familiar!!!

If you are Dutch you probably have seen enough snow, but here are some pics from last weekend!!! We had loads of snow!!! It started Thursdaynight not much but enough to let Rick take the bus to school Fridaymorning, but it got so bad (lightning and storm) that he phoned me after an hour to tell me he was still in Heenvliet and there where no busses passing by at all, I told him to come home I phoned school and they told me there where no busses driving anymore.

This was on Fridaymorning

Look at our backyard.

He loves the snow, but it's bad for his paws (the ice makes little wounds in his soles)
