Christmas fair,

Corry and me went to a christmasfair here

were people with disabilities live and made most crafts.

There was a stall with beautifull knitted christmas balls.

And I bought these,

buying is so much faster than knitting,

and gives  almost as much fun!

And I love this cute snowman!

And I bhougth this sweet bird ornament.

Dispite the bad weather, the market was worth and a succes!
