Good morning to all of you!! I’m always a bit ‘late, but coming! I have just returned from Merano where I relaxed a few days after a period of intense super job and now, here I am ready to get up at Christmas and tell you so many things. Let’s go back to November. As you may know, I was invited to the Children and Family. On that weekend I had other commitments, but Sunday, November 8 I could spend all day at the fair and I enjoyed that. The fair, dedicated exclusively to families with its 22,000 square meters of exhibition on 7 and 8 November was at its second edition. E ‘was undoubtedly the most anomalous autumn of the last year and a November so hot hardly anyone remembers it so I thought I would find fewer people at the show last year (where he was, totaled 17,000!). But no, despite the abnormally hot, moms, dads and children they arrived in their thousands. The entire weekend the Children and Family has touched more than 19,000 people. You think? The thematic areas were three. The pavilion commercial starring several exhibitors including sellers of furniture, games, clothing, travel and experts in nutrition and health. In the second hall the children were all very busy to participate in various workshops organized by education professionals, associations and non-profit organization. The event was the most crowded “M@mma che fame”, organized by “Il mondo di Bu” dedicated to the table and all forms of the word food. The third pavilion was entirely dedicated to sport: an area prepared by the Olympic Committee gave the children the chance to try lots of sports activities. They had also been set up lots of play areas including inflatables, mini go-kart tracks, games and bicycles. A beautiful event was conceived by the Provincial Command of the Fire Brigade of Venice. The project, called 115 Junior, was born from the need to teach children how to overcome obstacles in an emergency and help them to maintain a calm demeanor. The children who participated was awarded the certificate of “Firefighter for a day.” Like last year, the most visited space was devoted to animals where there was set up a real petting zoo. It ‘been a very interesting day, I regretted not having brought with me Ginevra, but to work and be with her two activities are not easily manageable! I know you would be so much fun. Radio Stella, the official radio station of the fair very pretty I interview during which I talked about my lifestyle bloggers. Speaking on the radio made me take a dip in the past when I collaborated with a local channel. A mix of nostalgia and emotion that made the day even more special. It will look more and more numbers next year at Children and Family … a hug.

 

Avevo impiegato molti mesi io a fare l’album fotografico di Ginevra a mano per il suo battesimo, il FotoLibro creato in internet invece l’ho creato in una mezza mattinata e a dir la verità ci ho preso così gusto che penso ne farò presto un’altro per me e Nicola, volete fare come me? Allora andate sul  sito www.snapfish.it in poco tempo avrete il vostro libro fotografico dei ricordi ! A voi pomeriggi afosi allora ! Vi abbraccio.

Here we are dear friends! With this heat my family’s process schedules have extremely slowed down, but I have to tell you the truth: this status doesn’t mind me at all! Instead of complainng because of this big heat, let’s try to see the positive side, how about it? A positive one is the possibility of doing things with slower rhythmns. For example, I work a lot during the morning, then, during the afternoon, I “take life easily” and, in the evening, I have a walk with my baby… In these sultry afternoons Ginevra and I have tested a beautiful thing. What is it?Days ago I found a website that allows me to upload photos and create a real photo book and then shipped directly to all! Do not you find it wonderful and comfortable? You can create your personal album so original and how you like? Yes, because there are lots of options which allow you to insert phrases, drawings, logos and choose different things from those that you prefer! Do you remember that I did something very similar hand as wedding favors for baptism Geneva? Here, but this time I have not only added to the photos of the first months of life, but I went to create a photo book from the day of its inception, already so! It ‘was challenging? No! E ‘was great fun: First I tried to folders where I have pictures of Geneva that I keep for convenience already divided by periods of life and put aside those that seemed most appropriate. Then I decided that there were times I wanted to ‘inside the album and select the photos that they spoke, choosing what to instinct …. I liked the most, after which I uploaded to the site, I found the program very fast in doing so. Once the photos were ready I selected the album that I liked: I chose the one with the hard cover, and then the game began. Create this album for me was really like a child again, you know those books with figurines attacks, deadlifts, glue and colors as well? Here the mechanism is the same because the program gives you the ability to have many choices to personalize the book by themes, in the page layout in the decorative elements and then also how to create and lay out the cover! I had spent many months I do the photo album of Geneva Hand to his baptism, the photo book created in Internet instead I created a mid-morning and tell us the truth I taste so I think I’ll make an early ‘one for me and Nicola, you do like me? Then go to the site :www.snapfish.it you will have your photographic book of memories really quickly! So I leave to you this chance to take advantage of these sultry afternoons! I hug you.

Happy Thursday…I am always on a rush…what about you? Let’s just take a break together and relax a little bit! I would like to tell you were I went last Sunday…I have been invited to the Children and Family Fair in my city, Vicenza, dedicated to the whole family! I went there with my mother-in-law, sister-in-law, brother-in-law, my little nephew and obviously with Ginevra! What about Nicola? Well, let’s just say he has some sorts of allergy to this kind of things, he stayed home watching the soccer game (how surprising!). Instead, we dipped in this magical world, which lasted for the entire weekend. We decided to go on Sunday, at lunch time, just to make sure it was not too crowded, as I had to shoot some pictures and it would have been impossible to do so with too many people! But, even though it was the very first edition, the Children and Family Fair had an unexpected success and it was full of people all day long, even on Sunday, on lunch time! I didn’t exactly know what to expect but I had a great impression, first of all because the fairground was huge and there were so many different little areas, each one dedicated to something different: they had the play area, sport, music, store exhibiting their products, several family communities, many activities for children, which Edoardo and Ginevra had so much fun doing, and they also had the drawing area set up, nothing was left out! You know, there’s one thing I do when I am surrounded by people and it is looking at other parents, carrying their children on their shoulders, holding their hands or pushing the strollers. I observe them, I observe those parents who are busy chasing after their kids, and what I see in their eyes is exactly the same happiness and tiredness that I find in mine…this fair has was mostly thought for parents like me, who are constantly seeking for the best for their children. And even if this might be hard sometimes, we do it from our hearts, because we would do anything for our little ones! I will be back to you soon, hugs.
