I have been setting different priorities for some time now. This means I can't always do what I really would love to do but I am OK with that now. This means I can't scrap as much as I would love to do or edit many pictures. I am spending more time with my kids and with taking care of the house that seems to be a constant mess. And when I do have time to scrap I sometimes prefer watching TV or read a good book, just to relax.
This afternoon I will be spending my time at the playground with my kids and their cousin Naomi. The guys are to the Soccer game AZ-AJAX and I do hope AZ will win this one, they need too!
I will leave you with some pictures that I shot in the last couple of weeks.
Self portrait
As if he can read, funny kid, I bet he loves to watch the pictures.
And no that is not our real wall, I just played around in photoshop and I really like how it turned out.
Jadenn always willing to let his picture taken, Anthony on the other hand....
is not!!
Which one do you like better nr 1, which is straight from the camera or nr 2 after using an action in photoshop?
Ok Playtime, gotta go!

Je zelfportret is MOOI!!
En ja, ik vind nummer 1 ook mooier.

Wat een prachtige foto's heb je gemaakt. Die met die "oude" muur vind ik ook erg leuk.
En al zijn Jadenn z'n ogen mooier blauw bij de tweede foto, vind ook ik de eerste mooier. Vooral omdat de huidtint natuurlijker is.
Prachtige scrapfoto's.

Aller eerst, geweldige foto's !
Ik kan me goed voorstellen dat je niet altijd de tijd hebt om de dingen te doen, die het liefst zou willen doen. Ik ben zelf moeder van twee jongens (1 en 4) en ren echt van het een in het ander. Tijd voor mezelf is schaars en tijd om te scrappen nog veel schaarser. Maar die vrolijke gezichtjes, die tevreden kindjes, dat schaterlachje en die kleine armpjes om mij heen geven mij meer energie en kracht dan ik ook kan putten uit wat dan ook. Hoe dan ook, succes. Liefs, es.

Love the color of the eyes on the latter but prefer the warmer, more realistic overallcolors (esp on the skin) on the first straight-outta-cam-pic :)

Both are cute photos-but I like the first one a teeny bit more. His skin tones look more natural and not as flat...though in the 2nd pix, his eyes are poppin'!
