Radost, 6m

Radost is my niece who just turned 6 months old. Her name is a direct translation of Joy.
She really is the happiest little girl I've met so far.
We shot the day after Christmas day, 2014.

3 days to Christmas: Old friends

Christmas is about going back to roots. Moreover, it's a comeback to old friends that we've set our ways apart with for a while. If you don't come across them by chance here and there during the tiresome Christmas shopping, you should definitely check on them while you take time off :))

In today's world of optimized communications we have never been closer to each other. Let's use it wisely and write/call/ask friends out so we keep old friendships alive besides of the time-&-space factor.

This sweet snowman on my sofa is someone we met last Christmas in a gift shop. We took him home right away. He's been a good friend, showing up this Christmas again, watching movies and spending time with us over the holidays.
Meet Stefcho :)))

4 days to Christmas: Decorate, don't hesitate!

It's hard to get in the mood when snow is running late this season. Starbucks has it right, but what about home?

There it is - the Christmas tree - waiting to be dressed bottom-top with ribbons, glass figures, bling-bling, and a star-crown on top. Did you dress yours already? What are you waiting for?! Santa cannot fit big presents in a sock :))))

Hurry, decorate! Don't even hesitate ;)))))

Day 89 - Joy of ♥ 24: where

Here comes the next one... It's asking where did we first meet, or fell in love with each other. That's hard to tell, first of all, because we come from the same place and we practically have known each other forever. And second of all, it's too hard to determine where and when exactly did we feel those so called butterflies...and maybe too personal to tell aloud ;)

That's why I am attaching a photo of the two of us from Christmas at home in 2008 when we actually met in the real sense of the word, and according to me - we spoke for the first time =D It's been a long journey since then, with ups and downs along the way, but somehow it feels like everything that happened, happened for a reason.

A long story told short.

Author of photo: unknown. (but most probably it's George?! :D)

P.S. Ignore the sober guy behind, he's just a totally different story I'll tell some other time :D

Day 47 - My very own camera necklace

A few days ago I got a brand new camera =) ...and this one is so pretty and light enough to carry everywhere...because it comes on a necklace :)))))))

A couple of months ago I fell in love with a camera necklace over the internet and I shared that with my friend Stella. The thoughtful friend she is, and has always been throughout the past 10 years we've known each other, she found it just in time for Christmas! :)))

I must admit this is one of the most awesome gifts I have ever been given, and most of all I was truly surprised!

A big THANK YOU, Stelli, once again :))))))))))

Day 35 - Christmas Cookies

Oh well, these are the famous Christmas cookies that I made a week before Christmas...and many have heard of but only few have tried... ;D

The recipe I got from Yoli's blog (http://yoli-www.blogspot.com/), while decoration includes milk and white chocolate, colorful candy, coconut snowflakes, and lot's of imagination.

We are still missing a Christmas tree at home, but stay tuned... :)
