Hipstamatic Friday

As per usual posted on Saturday.

We organized the bookshelf in the playroom and suddenly got a lot more space. Of course we had to read a few we found again.

Pumpkin heads

While we were in Germany selecting floors and kitchens the monkeys selected pumpkins to carve.

Germany

Daddy Monkey and I had to go to Germany for a day to do exciting things like choosing wooden floors, lino tiles, rubber floors, ceramic tiles...

We drove past asparagus fields.

The wooden flooring company is in an old factory near Potsdam.

It looked very pretty. There was a nature reserve at the back for some kind of newts that are only local to this area.

Daddy Monkey has booked a nice car in form of a 3series BMW for us and was worried all during the flight that he would get a smaller one instead like the last few times. He was all prepared for driving another little Ford but alas it wasn't the case. We were lucky and got offered a very nice, shiny 6 series BMW cabrio. Not that we had any intention of opening the roof. Even though it got sunny around lunch time but it was proper October weather and temperatures.

Daddy Monkey was so very happy. He even got to drive it on the German Motorway.

It was very, very good to drive apparently and simply marvelous and he got to push lots and lots of buttons to adjust this and that and a lot of things you never knew that could be changed.

But we didn't fly all the way to drive nice German cars we came to look at nice German kitchens, which we did extensively.  Oh, the choices, what front, what colour, handles? And then all the accessories, oven in a drawer, oven with escalator? Black sink, white sink? Glass doors with big frame, small frame, metall frame... In the end our heads were spinning and that was even before we heard the price!

Birthday cards

I made some Birthday cards, Little Monkey was invited to a party so I decided to make a card myself. I think it took too long, because before I was even finished stamping which I did first, Big Monkey already showed me the one she had made. But mine was very pretty too, she said. I'm sure we'll be able to use it some day. She's invited to a party on the weekend... if my card makes the grade.

A new song...

Big Monkey has learned 6 notes so far and has written her own song. It sounds really good. She wrote down the notes and has practiced it many times. She named it "Christmas again".
