The Happy Book: comfort

Our assignement this week for The Happy Book (The Next Chapter Book Club, led by Jamie Ridler) was comfort.

The place where I´m most comfortable is behind the lens, capturing my favourite moments & people. *heart*

Examples? The Familienfest on Saturday October 16th. Big event at school.
A day by and for the families.
The indoors stage was used for rock bands. The playground was used for skaters, dancers (traditional German music/clothes, tango and modern)and singers (all three choirs, solo).
There was a handball championship (parents team beating high school teams Woooo Hooooo! Dan -right in the middle of the team- got a medal ).
BBQ (they sold out), pretzels, waffles and cakes stands.
Games.
Tombola and raffle. I won 5 out of 10 tickets!!! Mati helped Tati´s friends with the accounts when they were selling the tombola numbers. Yes, that´s why I bought so many, I knew all the kids and their brightest smiles were put to use when selling! :D

It was the Fest der Jugend (Youth party) this Sunday 24th. We had to be at the club at 9am for a 10am start. Mati is too old to participate in the sports events but he participated as group leader. Each category (boys/girls every two years) need two older kids to take them from one place to the other and generally making sure they behave.
