magical Christmas*

I love this man with my whole heart!

Together, we are LOVE.

On 22nd of December 2008 this little elf became

legally our son.

Today he is a daddy...

This Christmas, I am a mommy...

We are leaping!

Blessed into abundance!

I hope you are surrounded by people that love you

with abundance...

Have a magical Christmas! xx

Life is good*

Wake up in the mornings in our

room with a view!

I got coffee and rusks in bed! Together with

a dirty nappy and getting soaked with a water

pistol! heehee!

Saturday morning all of us played board games!

We laughed! and fought! Teehee!

Climbed rocks by myself!

Not scared of anything!

Our swimming pool in front of our camping site.

This is where we spent most of our time

swam with Daddy in the very cold river...

even wanted to go down the rapids!

Everybody went down the river on Octopus!

'Bye 'liefie'....(bye lovely)...too adorable!

We built houses...yum-yum!

All the cousins went for a walk while

Grandma played Christmas songs on her

mouth flute...

Mommy & Daddy had to climb rocks with me!

Of course! :-)

No, I don't have any water pistols...promise!?

Packing up and laughing uncontrolable!

Life is good!

this just made my day*

Right now, Lin, imagine the mansion of your wildest dreams.
Happy, shiny, and filled with laughing friends
who are carrying you through the giant double doors,
across the marble entry hall,
marching you up and down the circular stairway
on their shoulders.

A live band blasting out back by the dock,
a water polo match in the pool
that was recently spiked with bubble bath,
the paparazzi flying in low on helicopters
to catch just a glimpse of you.
Speed boats, sailboats,
and so many jet skis
whizzing around
that your neighbors think
James Bond, Kanye West, or Beyoncé,
must have been invited...

And then suddenly,
when you think it just couldn't get any better,
the doorbell GONGS, and everyone falls silent.

Yes!! Pizza guy!!

You really know how to live.
The Universe

Nice gardens, Lin!
I didn't know you played tennis!
And whose idea were all the naked statues posing like that?

a few days of 31*

“Photography is truth.”

On Saturday morning we went for a walk along the beach...

the two of us sat for an hour on a rock, watching the

waves break against the rocks...

cuddling...giggling...just being...

The sun was bright...the water shiny...

reminded me of diamonds within our reach...

Preparing for our Gratitude feast / Christmas...

We may not always understand the road we are

traveling, but trusting the process, knowing that the right

thing will happen for you at exact the right moment,

is magical!

Sometimes we cannot see right in

front of us...we just have to keep

going...eventhough we feel

uncertain and out of place...

just keep going...

Someone is looking out for YOU!

Close your eyes...believe in yourself...and fly!

day 4 of 31*

For 8 Christmas's we hoped & prayed...
