After the <a href=\"http:\/\/archives.piajanebijkerk.com\/WordPress\/2010\/02\/05\/thank-you-for-coming\/\" target=\"_blank\">last few events<\/a>, I&#8217;ve now realise that I am incapable of hosting a party and taking photos at the same time. However, French Boy does know better because I noticed he&#8217;d taken my camera out of my bag sometime during the event and was snapping photos &#8211; what a hero! Except it was my canon 400d and not the canon g10 so he had no idea what to do with the settings. Regardless, he managed to snap this fab shot above! All the other photos were too dark unfortunately but I think this one is terrific.\u00c2\u00a0 So a big thank you to French Boy for taking hold of the camera and snapping this lovely memory. And thank you to everyone who came along and bought lots of books! What an awesome bunch of people you are.<\/p>\n<p>xx<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>pretty flowers on my windowsill from Jolijn at Juffrouw Splinter &#8211; thank you Jolijn!
