Little Sailor - Un Marinerito

Hola!

First of all, I'm really REALLY sorry about the mistake in the little octopus pattern! Thank you to the nice people that pointed it out w/out yelling ;) I just revised it and it should be perfect!

I made a little tugboat and posted the pattern in the shop, it came out muy simpatico :), I can't wait to see it in different colors. Franco says that the floaties (I have no clue how you call the yellow thingies, and Oli calls them floaties, so... help!) are too big, and that the hat should be smaller... but I like him. -F & the tugboat ;)

**Hice un botecito y subi el patron a la tiendita, tiene una carita re simpatica :)

Franco dice que los flotadores son demasiado grandes, y que el sombrerito tendria que ser mas chico, pero a mi me gusta asi! (siempre le pregunto a ver que le parece y nunca le hago caso...)

I've been making lots of new stamps for hola!, but haven't taken pictures of all of them yet. This one's my favorite, I guess I'm on a nautical theme!

Tambien hice un montonazo de sellitos nuevos para la otra tiendita, pero solo le saque foto al pulpito este, que es el que me gusta mas :)

Maybe it's because last week we went to the beach! We had been talking about it for the longest time, and never got around to go (& we moved here from upstate NY more than 2 years ago!).

The beach was nice, but it really bothers me that you have to pay to get in. Not because of the money, but it just seems wrong...

There was no way we could get in the water. It was SO COLD it felt like it had ice cubes in it, but the girls had fun in the sand, and we sat around, wanting to munch on something (they don't allow food in the beach! or mate!). We're going to look for a more kid/hungry person-friendly beach next time.

I know I'm complaining a lot, but we did have a nice time, it's nice just to look at the water, and be, w/out having to do much more.

I'm going to watch some Backyardigans now ;)

Beso!

**La semana pasada fuimos a la playa! Hace rato que estamos planeando, y nunca pinto (y eso que nos mudamos aca hace ya casi 2 años). La playa era simpatica, pero hay que pagar para bajar a la arena!!! Soy yo, o esta re mal? Como te van a cobrar para ir a la playa?!!!

Ademas no te dejan bajar comida, ni mate!!! Soy pura queja, pero en realidad igual pasamos barbaro, al agua no pudimos entrar porque estaba con-ge-la-da, como si tuviera cubitos de hielo, pero a las nenas les encanta jugar en la arena, y solo con mirar el agua yo estoy feliz :)

Igual la proxima vamo'a buscar una playa un poco menos fashion ;) y mas para gente como uno vio? (matera y con hambre!)

Bueno, hablamos pronto.

Beso!
