"Sometimes I believe in fate

but the chances we create



always seem to ring more true

you took a chance on loving me



I took a chance on loving you"

Polaroid Project

Here some results on our Polaroid a day-project!
We started off this holidays project with this one:
oops, is this correct? Is it the film, is it me or is it my camera?


 blurred


The first sunday we went to a brocante/vide grenier/fleamarket & I bought this:

would it work?
We tested it with our second cassette of film.

Well the colours look better

more in focus, sharp


and even my sweetheart knows how to operate it!


Not bad for a camera that cost me just 4 euro's!

After returning from France we celebrated J.'s 6th birthday with lots of presents, a trip to the Trainmuseum & homemade pancakes on his request!

Holiday tradition

When I was a kid I spend a lot of holidays with my brother over at my grandparents. My grandfather had a Polaroid camera.

03-06-1979

Magical thing a Polaroid camera, I got a new one as a farewell present from a job in 2003.
Our first holiday together we started a tradition: a Polaroid a day. We had fun together deciding if a certain moment would be worthy to become a Polaroid!


And so when we got on our first holiday with J. we continued with this tradition!




But Polaroid stopped producing film & our little tradition went under with it.
But thanks to The Impossible Project we are back on track for this upcoming holiday! Last year I was too late ordering film, but this year I had a note in my agenda:

Yay!

Back online!

Yay! The computerdoctor fixed our little computer & finally I am able to post again! Thank you all for your comments & visits during my out-of-order-time.

First things first: I won a giveaway over at The Round Robin Notebook a project from Puur Arnika!

Surprise bundle... 
Look! Knoopjes!  
Love her handmade pendants!

I have missed my daily computer routine & reading all your blogs! I did sneak in some blogtime over at the office & used my smartphone to stay updated on most of my favorite reads.

For the rest of the time we have been busy saying goodbye to school & getting ready for our 2 week holiday in France.
And by getting ready I mean cleaning & tyding up our house... I can't be the only mother in the world who loves to come back to a clean, clear & fresh house?
Or am I? :)

Have a wonderful weekend!
