My style

2011-12-12T14:08:00.000+02:00

In the past few months I lost over 10 Kg! It's so amazing! I'm getting so much closer to the way I was before my last pregnancy, almost 3 years ago. from the minute that I have passed my checkpoint of 10 Kg of weight loss all I can think of is ... Clothes, clothes and some more clothes!

I'm trying not to buy anything now until I get to my target weight but ...a girl need something to think about. Here's what I have in my shopping list at this point ....

בחודשים האחרונים הורדתי מעל 10 קילוגרמים! זה כיף לא רגיל ....אני מתקרבת בצעדי ענק לגיזרה שכל כך התגעגעתי אליה מאז ההריון האחרון לפני כמעט 3 שנים. ומאז שעברתי את מחסום ה - 10 קילו כל מה שאני יכולה לחשוב עליו זה ... בגדים, בגדים ועוד קצת בגדים. אני מתאפקת לא לקנות עכשיו כלום עד שאני אגיע למשקל היעד שלי אבל להסתכל מותר נכון? הנה מה שנמצא כרגע ברשימת הקניות שלי

Musical Family

2011-12-08T18:00:00.001+02:00

This week my husband bought a new guitar, he and my oldest son playing together on almost every tool available and my house is starting to look like one large rehearsal room. it seems that the talent for music comes from the side of my husband family while my daughter and I has no ability to play on any musical instrument. my husband cousins, and now their children, are most musical. So this is how it's looks like when the men in the family get together for a morning of music and coffee....

השבוע בעלי קנה גיטרה חשמלית חדשה ומגבר, הוא והבן הגדול שלי מנגנים ביחד על כל כלי אפשרי כמעט והבית שלי מתחיל להראות כמו חדר חזרות אחד גדול, מסתבר שכישרון הנגינה מגיע מהצד של בעלי כי בעוד שלי ולבת שלי אין שום יכולת לנגן בצד של בעלי כל בני הדודים, ועכשיו גם הילדים שלהם, מוזיקליים ביותר. ככה זה נראה כשהגברים במשפחה נפגשים לקפה

ומוזיקה

Saturday Trip - "Stream judge"

2011-12-02T12:45:00.001+02:00

I just love those Saturdays walks, the only day that the whole family is together for each other without thinking about work or any tasks, simply go for a walk in nature in such a perfect sunny day.
We walked at the "Stream judge" this week - a lovely place with an easy walking route that a three years old child can enjoyed without any difficulty, and the highlight of the trip were those little caves that my son was excited by so much.

אני כל כך אוהבת את הטיולים של ימי שבת, היום היחיד שבו כל המשפחה ביחד פנויים אחד לשני בלי לחשוב על עבודה ומטלות למיניהם פשוט יוצאים לטייל בטבע ביום שמש מושלם שכזה. השבוע טיילנו בנחל השופט - מקום מקסים עם מסלול הליכה קליל שגם ילד בן שלוש נהנה בו ללא קושי, וגולת הכותרת של הטיול היו המערות הקטנות שהבן שלי התלהב מהן כל כך

How to Wear a Scarf

2011-10-30T11:46:00.000+02:00

This morning we woke up to a wintry week and as a big winter fan I have quite a collection of scarfs in my closet just waiting for a day like this to come out and get some air. So on a rainy morning like this what is more appropriate then this amazing video I have found that shows 25 different ways to wear a Scarf

הבוקר התעוררנו לתוך שבוע חורפי וכחובבת חורף מושבעת יש לי אוסף לא קטן של צעיפים בארון שרק מחכים ליום שכזה כדי לצאת החוצה ולהתאוורר...אז לבוקר גשום שכזה מה יותר מתאים מהדרכת הוידיאו המקסימה הזו שמצאתי שמראה איך ללבוש צעיף ב-25 דרכים שונות

My morning coffee

2011-10-27T20:38:00.000+02:00

I received several emails from Israelis readers asking if I can translate my blog posts into Hebrew. so form now I will write my posts in English for my overseas friends and in Hebrew for my friends in Israel.
Seems like someone is thinks about me ..... every morning my husband and I tend to drink our morning coffee together just before getting ready to work, school and kindergarten, this week my husband was in London for reasons of work and I drank my daily morning coffee alone. This morning I had a special surprise in my glass and I had to shoot it, after the first sip of my coffee I noticed this heart shape in the glass. I't's looks like a sign telling me that someone thinks about me even from the far away London.

קיבלתי כמה אימיילים מקוראים ישראלים בבלוג ששאלו האים אני יכולה לתרגם את הפוסטים שלי גם לעברית אז בשבילכם .חברים יקרים מעכשיו הפוסטים יכתבו גם באנגלית לטובת חברי מעבר לים וגם בעברית לטובת חבריי מישראל

נראה שמישהוא חושב עליי.....כל בוקר בעלי ואני נוהגים לשתות את קפה הבוקר ביחד דקה לפני שמתארגנים לעבודה, לבתי הספר ולגן. השבוע בעלי היה בלונדון מטעמי עבודה ואת קפה הבוקר היומי שתיתי לבד. הבוקר היתה לי הפתעה מיוחדת בכוס שהייתי חייבת לצלם, אחרי לגימה ראשונה מהקפה גיליתי צורה של לב בכוס נראה ממש כמו סימן שבא להגיד לי שמישהוא חושב עליי גם מלונדון הרחוקה

New layout - Amazing happiness

2009-09-25T18:57:00.000+03:00

I love this photo of my baby boy from about 3 mo ago - he looks like a little angel wan he sleep.
I have found this perfect poem that saying all I wanted to say to go with this photo...
"We are glad you joined our family yet some things make us wonder, How can a little package like you have a voice thats loud as thunder? You are so small and oh so cute, But you are never very shy, for whenever you want something, You just open your mouth and cry.
First you moved on hands and knees, then you were up on your feet. We’are chasing you all around the house We’re tired we need a retreat! Some food is on the table some food is on the floor Seems the only place food didnt go, Is in the baby we adore.
Diapers here and diapers there,Stinky... smelly... Whew! Diapers would have done us in, If we did not love you as we do.We’are glad you joined our family, You’are a unique and wonderful treasure. So, despite the work of raising you, Being your parents is a total pleasure! "

Our baby is growing up so fast and he has started to be aware to everything around him. Photo A Day - Sep. 24... our 7mo baby is discovering our family dog, he is trying to touch him and figure out what is this big black furry thing that is running around him all the time.

CT layout - Cant ask for more

2009-09-22T19:11:00.000+03:00

Carina Gardner at 2peas got out her new "I remember when..." line today and I got to tell you this new line is so beautiful and romantic ..I love it!! I was looking for so long a kit to fit my favorite photo of my DH and me and I'm so glad that I have finally found the kit I was looking for.
The Journal say : "Standing here with you listening to the rain Smile just to see the smile upon your face These are the moments I thank God that I am alive and these are the moments I will remember all my life. I have found all I have waited for and I could not ask for more. looking in your eyes seeing all I need everything you are is everything in me. these are the moments I know heaven must exist and these are the moments I know all I need is this. I have found all I have waited for, and I could not ask for more I could not ask for more than this time together I could not ask for more than this time with you and every prayer has been answered, every dream I have had is come true, right here in this moment is right where I am meant to be here with you here with me."

Photo A Day - Armed and asleep

2009-09-21T09:39:00.000+03:00

Photo A Day - Sep. 21...The night before he was making a sort movie with lots of shooting effect so I guess that he just forgot his toy gun on his bad and just fall asleep... But it was so funny to see....

So here is my today photo - Sep. 16...
Yahava wake up from his nap and started calling me (with his baby way of talking, mostly yelling are involved in this part of his talk ) to came and get him out of the bed. when I got in to his room I have seen him standing in his bed for the first time!!
got my phone - I did not had my camera within reach - and start shooting. he was so cute and even made some cute pose for me......

and in some point he decided that it more then enough for him and did not
hesitate to let me know about it in his own amazing way....

Wellcome to my blog

2009-08-02T10:42:00.000+03:00

I finally have a new blog!! YAY
Let me tell you a little about me...
My name is Lilach Oren and I'm from Israel.
I'm married for 13 years now to a wonderful husband and we have 3 kids. My boy is 11 years, my girl is 9 and my baby is 6 month old. I have discovered the digital scrapbooking on Sep. 2004 (while I was surfing the net looking for digital albums for my new photos) and become totally addicted to it.
After being a CT for some amazing designers and great sites for some time I have started to design and sell my own kits and on 2005 I have opened my own site – Scrap2gather which crashed during the war is Israel that year. After closing my site I have joined DSW and Digitals and sell my kits for Commercial and personal use. After more than 5 years of designing I have retired on Aug. 01 and closed all my stores

Now after closing all my stores I don't have the designing and kit making pressure anymore and have more time to do the one thing I love the most – to scrap and scrap some more!!
