Everyone who knows me well, knows that I am a huge fan of anything fantasy, fairy, mysterious, and full of joy. So after discovering Castlefest last year, I had to come back again this year. Again it was a blast and like last year the rain  poured down hard. But only for short times!  Most of the time we had sun! The temperature was perfect aswell.

This year Antonio and Anarosa came with us too. One of us had to go by bus because we could not fit all in the car and since Antonio was the only one who was not in a costume and not driving the car, he was to go with the bus. On the way back I was supposed to go with the bus though so I took normal clothes with me in the car. My mom had made an awesome blouse to go with my velours skirt and on top of that I was wearing my corset. Merel was wearing a dress with cape that my mom made and for herself my mom made a great costume as well.Since I didnt took any pictures of our selfs, I am going to have to steal the ones that John took of us and that she put on her Facebook.

Everyone had a great time and even Antonio loved the festival. He even said he might be wearing a costume as well next year, and me, I all ready ordered a pattern for a new costume for myself. I am going to need my mom’s help to make it though :P. For Anarosa I will make a pretty little costume too and Merel has her other dress we bought last year when we where there.

All the pictures of Castlefest that either me or Antonio took you can find right here together with the pictures I stole from my moms Facebook. 😛 Enjoy the pictures!!!

And here are the pictures of my sweet little baby girl (who’s not so little anymore ) her Second Birthday 🙂 Its all about the cake, the gifts and the toys she’s got 🙂 Enjoy :).

Today my youngest daughter turned 2 years old. We went swimming today in Oosterparkbad. That’s for us at the other side of the city but I like that swimming pool because they have outdoor AND indoor swimming pools for little ones and big ones :P. It was a wonderful day with great weather. I even got a tan! Anarosa had lots of fun too, she loves going swimming. When we came back home there was of course the cake and the gifts. We did the gifts first and then the cake. So at least she has some time to play with them before bedtime. Of course there are pictures but I will upload those another time because I have got to do some cleaning up now and then we continu with the little party 🙂 We planned on watching a movie tonight. So laters all!
