Sinterklaas and Give-Away

Sinterklaas
kapoentje,
leg wat in mijn schoentje,
leg wat in mijn laarsje,
dank u Sinterklaasje!

It's the 6th of December, the day to celebrate Sinterklaas. Sinterklaas brings gifts and candy to those who've been good, and black coal to those who have been naughty! The kids give their wish-list and hope the good man will bring something from the list.
Of course Jelena is way to young to celebrate Sinterklaas, and yet, a tiny shoe appeared at the fire-place, with a carrot for the horse of Sinterklaas, and apparently a wish-list. The good man obviously understood what she wanted, because ... a new pacifier was lying in the shoe.


Weather
While it's not actually winter yet, the weather is obviously winter-like! Brrrr, it's cold outside! And ... we had snow!



give-away!
Since today is a day for gifts, it's the perfect day to announce my 50 followers (+1) give-away! (thanks everyone for being interested in my blog!)
The give-away once again contains 2 magazines from Borduurblad: the numbers 4 and 6 and a kit (aïda fabric, dmc-floss)

The drawing will happen on another perfect day for gifts: 25th december!

MEARI Congrats Meari!! Please contact me with your adress so I can send the package your way :)

Since I have 50 (+1) followers, I'll do another give-away soon, so stay tuned!


Thank you all for the birthday-wishes!
So yesterday was my birthday, 30! I survived it :) Had a nice lunch at my parents house, had some cake. Boohoo, no new stash, but my sister have some cash, so I can go shopping myself :)

Let's (rock and) roll!
Jelena is now also rolling from back to tummy, and she really really really likes it! Every time I lay her down (doesn't matter where: bed, box, play-carpet, when she need's to be changed ...), she rolls to her tummy! It's been a week now, and she's still not tired of it. It also means I have to go 'rescue' her and turn her back (even though she can roll from tummy to back herself), everytime she gets too tired.

Blog give-away!

In honor (ahum) of my upcoming birthday (the big 3!), I'm organising a give-away. The prize are 2 magazines borduurblad number 13 and 14 and a kit Gerbéra Saumon.


The patterns in the magazines are to be stitched with DMC.

Just leave a comment on this post if you want to be added to the give-away.
I'll be drawing a name on 10/11/2010.

Here you can also find some free patterns from this magazine!
