Weekend at the pool

This weekend we had some sunny and warm weather and on Friday the girls went each to their own friend for a sleep-over while we had some great Thai food at my friends Nacha's house. But on Saturday the girls decided to sleep over with their friends at our house and the whole Saturday and Sunday they spent by the pool.

Wow, how these girls can tan in just 2 days... it still amazes me! It takes me weeks to build a tan line, but the girls have it just in one weekend! Not fair ;-)

Here some pictures of the lazy and fun weekend.... (before I start blogging about the rest of my trip with my dad).

After a dip in the pool, the girls: Cathlynn, Jasmine, Juliet and Mi Young like to dry and tan in the trampoline... nice & hot!



But not long and they go back into the water...



Hmm... this is so nice! BTW do you notice my new pool has a black bottom, so that's why the water looks so dark...



Then the girls find a new way of entertaining themselves... jumping off the wall on the back off the pool. Jasmine goes first!



Here she goes, without hesitation! Whoa!!



Juliet is not sure... it looks scary from there! And so high!!



Finally she tries it... only once. Normally she is the braver one of the 2, but today Jezz is the hero!



JJ wants to try again and also Mi Young comes up to see if she likes to give it a try... but no!



Both rather lay in the sun and stay warm up there on that high wall....



But not Jasmine, she goes again and again, having so much fun!! Good for you Jezzy!!



Such a relaxing weekend!
These kids have a good life! (not that I am complaining hehe)

How was your weekend?
Did you do something fun?? Share it with me!

Have a Marvellous Monday!

a new Martha in the house??

Jasmine and Juliet are both showing some interest in cooking and baking. So the other weekend JJ asked me to bake something, but she wanted to do it alone. At least as much as possible! OK with me!!

Brownies was the choice.

So here she goes; getting the ingredients together, mixing, pouring and licking... how fun is that last part!!



Cathlynn her friend came by and wanted to help as well, so both are decorating the brownie cake.



JJ has a go as well...



And see here the result! Normally brownies are made in a square tin, but today we wanted to decorate it with the hearts of powder sugar, so we made it round... tastes the same!!



YUM YUM! Like a good brownie, crunchy on the sides, but nice and gooey in the centre!!

Perfect brownie JJ!! Let's try something a bit more challenging the next time :-)

Are your kids into baking or cooking??

Enjoy your Marvellous Monday!!
