The Fair


Yesterday was the fair and it was a big succes! I went home with only
one little basket and as you can see on the picture above I had a lot
of stuff to sell. It was a lovely sunny day just perfect for a springtime-
fair!

There were lots of people all gasping at my stuff and saying oh's
and ah's...there were so much people who want to buy something that
I was so busy helping them I totally forgot to take pictures... It's a pity
because it was really looking happy and colourfull.

My son had taken some branches out of the bushes wich we attached to the table and hang
the buntings and little harts in it. I just couldn't fit all my things onto the
table. It was so full you almost couldn't see the white blanket underneath.
And see at the end of the day I took this picture...

It was such a happy day. The kids were enjoying outside playing
and baking breads on a stick above a campfire. There also was a
'fairy-tale-forest' in one of the rooms which they enjoyed so much.
They were helping me with selling and counting the coins but
most of the time they were outside playing. At the end of the day
I took this picture...it really captures the enjoyment of the whole day.

Thanks to everyone who came and visit my stall including my
lovely friends Eva and Denise for visiting and making compliments
about my stall :) And thanks to Suzanne with her little babyboy
who took care of my stall so I could take my little ones outside
for a while...Also thanks to my dear friend Nancy who also helped
a lot packing when we went home.

I hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did and if you couldn't
come I hope you enjoy this little story about it :)

That's all for now..I'm going to clean my house now...that has been
a while....
