Bellbottoms

There's this gorgeous little shop right near our house called Bellbottoms. I love browsing around in there! Here is this mornings purchase...I couldn't leave them there! :-)






freezer paper fun

It was a rainy day today, so apart from crocheting :-) i decided to dig out my freezer paper and make something for Joshua. I really struggle to find good quality, thick fabric paint here. Pity I just cant pop into Spotlight! So I first have to do a few coats of white paint, then the coloured paint over the top.

Nothing professional, but it was fun! (oh, and i struggled to cut out the tiny holes of the letters...oops!) oh well, I'm sure Joshua wont mind!!

March 2012 randoms...(Joshua is 1 1/2)

ek eet my mielie Mamma...LOS MY UIT!!

Joshua trying his best to frown...its his new 'thing' and he thinks its hilarious! (I do too...but man, he's naughty!! this was the look he gave me after throwing food on the ground.) 


 hmm, what have we here??!? Oops, sorry Mamma, it just HAPPENED!!
 it wasn't me, honest! It was Winston!! (And yes, its permanent marker, I think I'll have to paint over it, its also on the carpet, on the tiles, and on the door!!)
 Joshua likes to pee on the toilet before bath time. And hey, its better than having loads of peeing going on in the bath!
 Joshua took this photo!
 mmm, I LOVE creamed spinach Mamma! (he really does, garlic and all!)
 caught out! if anyone get a weird email or something, its because of this!
 but I want to skype with Pop & Nanna Mamma!
 Joshua always has to sit on the vacuum cleaner while I'm using it. Big Joke.

Logageng / Red Sand Safaris

Our good friend Martin Kamphuis is here from Holland for his twin sister Anja's wedding. We dont get to see him very much, so a bunch of us went away for the weekend to Logageng (near Botswana). It was Leon & Lallie, us, Martin and Kriek & Renate. Was really enjoyable! And boy...can those cooks COOK!! You just sit...and EAT!! I didn't take that many photos, sorry, I was too busy chasing Joshua! (there is an open swimming pool, and high walkways, but he was well behaved actually!)
Hmm, looks like he's found the bag of coals!
and convinced Fleur that its really fun, and Mamma wont be that mad! (isn't she cute?!)

 I know its late Pappa, but can I pleeeease go fishing again before bed?
 Martin entertaining Joshua & Regardt with photos, cute!
 get off me Regardt!!

 every time Lallie put Kirsten down on the ground, Joshua had to lie down too, and act like a baby!
 gentle Joshua, this is my little sister Kirsten!
 love! this photo!! Fleur's pram has been hijacked...again!
 loves kicking the ball
 or playing a bit of cricket

Buffelsdrift / Sekelbos

I know this is an overload of photos, but it's late, and I cant be bothered sorting through photos!! Leon & Lallie asked us to join them for a weekend at Buffelsdrift. It's a beautiful place to go to for a weekend, and its only a 1/2 hour drive away. Daan & Jessica came too. It was a great weekend!! The whole place has totally been rebuilt last year, now its far more luxurious, a real treat!
