Favourite window and bathroom-thing

Choose your favourite window in your house. Show the whole window, the curtains and window decoration.

One of my windows...... We have two of this.......
The close-up pictures show the vase with autumn-decorations and the balls with autumndecorations that are hanging from the ceiling.








This is a "favourite'' part of our bathroom. The bathroom isn't exactly a beautiful room, it's small and a bit '80's........ In the closet there is this little basket. We keep our washing-gloves in there, so they don't end up all over the bathroom.

What hidden treasure or favourite spot do you just LOVE about your hallway?

Favourite spot

This next week will see us finding those little spots around our home that we just love. It might be a corner of a cabinet or it might be a little trinket in a certain room. Today I would like you all to find your favourite spot/piece in your lounge.

This is my favourtite spot. I sit here to drink coffee, to watch tv, to read, to puzzle, to help the kids with homework etc.


Right above the couch is a painting given to us by my grandmother. We got the painting as a weddinggift. The mill on the picture is the mill in the village I lived before I got married. My grandmother died 9 years ago but the painting is still a very special thing to me......

Pink

Not essentially last in the rainbow (like Violet is) but its a shade of Indigo and that would be just too boring. I know you can find us some pink.

Not much pink in our household (with 3 men and 1 woman) but I managed to found this moneybox.......


and when I looked into our garden I've noticed this hydrangea that is still blooming with one pink flower........

Game

A form of play or sport. find 'game' in your space today.

Lots of game(s) in this space....
Both my sons love to game on the PC, Playstation, GameCube or X-box.
Almost every day one of them is playing.
Luckely they do other games as well. They both like to play chess. In fact, both of them became
champion of the "state"' we live in, in schoolchess competition.
My youngest (in white shirt on picture below) played with his team the Dutch Championships.
They became 16th....... Outside the playing area there was this huge chessboard, so they had to play on it.
One of the teammembers bought this (below) chessboard. How cool is that. You can play the game with three instead of two players.

Besides these games mentioned, the youngest is playing soccer (4 times a week) and the oldest is playing ping-pong.....

Lots of gaming in this space!

2 pictures for today's word.
The first picture is taken on the Harbour Days in Vlissingen. It's the ferris wheel. My youngest and his friend wanted to go in it. I'm a little bit afraid of hights, so is my DH. One of us had to go, I was the lucky one. The view is stunning from up there. That makes it a little better.
