Sleepover- fun

Today we had the first sleepover from Lukas' friend. And they had lots of fun...
I love this pics from breakfast, when the hair looks like just out of bed :) (They were already a few hours awake)
Remember I made Superhero-capes for my boys?! Today Gabriel got a "Super-G"- Cape too. He was so excited, but I forgott to make a picture...
The boys played lots with legos and this was right before leaving ;)

fruits- funny, healthy snack

I'm trying to eat healthier and we changed our snacks, but the kids still love it when I call them for snacktime ;)


How healthy is your snack?

Repairing kneeholes, my first time


 Yes, I never did that before, but this week I decided to repair kneeholes because my oldest got holes in 3 pair of jeans in only a couple weeks... here you see my first try... I hope it will last for a bit longer ;)


I sewed it without my sewingmashine... it didn't fit unter :(
But I'm glad, my son likes it and said "this is funny" ;)

Blackbread- the no flour bread

I love this bread!!! Its really german ;) Last summer a friend of mine gave the recipe and it really tasts like the bakery-bread in germany... so happy about it!!!
Its just with cracked rye and wheat, no flour in it. It is a bit dark, but not as much as pumpernickel. Is someone interested in the recipe??? Please commend and I'll translate it for you ;)

Fix it with fixingpins...
