Out and about with my girls

It might be rainy and a bit chilly but in the meantime I am planning my tour with the girls when the weather gets better. So, where to go? First stop is by the lake where Jet d'eau can be found. I also like to go to Bains des Paquis. The girls can play in the water, we can have a picnic but lunch is affordable there, this I have just discovered not so long ago. Yes, I know, it took me a looong while to get to know this coz I don't eat out a lot.
From there we can just walk going to the English garden and have some ice cream and watch the boats. Karen loves boat and we used to take her for a ride. It's easy to do that if hubby is with us but with two children in the pushchair, I think boat ride can wait. Further up is the Rose Garden, I'm sure Karen will love running around Parc de la Grange. I was also told about Yvoire. Why do I get the feeling that I am the only one who hasn't been there?
Anyway, for this week there's a lot of going ons here in Geneva and the surrounding areas. You might want to take your mothers for a walk in one of these places. Remember that Mother's Day is on the 9th of this month.;-)

Happy Mother's Day this weekend! Hopefully I'll get breakfast in bed and the kids can help me eat it.

Sounds like an incredible day!

(And I totally agree with you about the boat rides. It's so much fun to take the kids around that way, but when you have two kids and a pushchair you definitely need a second adult around to help!)

Let it snow, let it snow--man!

The rasta-inspired creation of my hubby and Ms.K After loads of rolling here and there, it's done. Our first snowman of the season.;)It might not last long and will surely lose its precious eyes by tomorrow, but for now let's enjoy that smile. This reminds me of something, I just can't put my finger on it. Hmmm, do you have any idea? Think...think...! Eh-oh! Smile, it's Monday!

Vacation over

It's kinda hard to get up early again after 2 weeks of staying up late.I've started taking the girls early to bed and of course, they're awake at around 6h30. My husband on the other hand has started working and I think he misses his late mornings. Now it's back to normal sched again. Now, I'm lazily doing my chores and still hoping that my mug of coffee will take effect soon. How do you get back to normal routine after weeks of vacation?
