Family visit and curtain shopping

We had another family visit this past weekend. It's been so nice to have been able to spend time with all our family this year. This time it was Mom and Jürgen coming out to see the new house.


We didn't do any touristy sight seeing this weekend. Instead we dragged them around the shops to help us choose curtains. I have never before had to choose curtains and found it very difficult to make a decision.

After a few shops we finally found some fabric we liked. Initially we just wanted to get ready made curtains and be done with it, but there really wasn't anything ready made that we liked. And we would have had to shorten the ready mades anyway, so now we're having curtains made. Well, I still have to go and order them. When we got to ordering this weekend we doubted our measuring skills and decided to go back home to do another measure-up before buying.

Mom picked the first grapes from our greenhouse.
They were very nice and sweet!

We stayed home Saturday evening and made our famous home made pizza for dinner.



Sunday after breakfast we went for a walk along the canal and then home for scones and tea before having to take them back to the airport.

Another great weekend!

  2. Het jy agtergekom? Ek kan weer comments los!!!! En ja, dit was 'n baie lekker naweek. Wonder of jy nog oor die gordyn herkou en of julle al besluit het om te bestel?? Maar ek weet ook dit kos meer as die Pnd 48 waarmee Andre onder die arm geloop het!

  3. Bly die comments werk weer vir jou! Het nie laas week gaan bestel nie, maar Andre het net vandag gese ek moet dit more gaan doen. Maandae is bietjie besig vir my so sal dan dalk eerder dinsdag gaan. Dink ons hou nog by dieselfde keuse.
