Happy 1st of Advent!

Finally we got some light in our depressing November darkness. Despite a chaotic house, sick girls (they're well now but they both had a fever and cold earlier this week) and tired parents first of Advent arrived and was celebrated with homemade gingerbread and saffronbread.























Happy first of Advent to you all!

Highlights on a dark November Sunday.

It's been a dark and unusually hard November in many ways. Now it's more important than ever to notice the small but so important highlights from every day life. Like today's thoughts from Lovisa: "what!? Princesses really do exist? But then dinosaurs also have to exist since both princesses and dinosaurs are from ancient times...". And later when Andréa was standing to close to the TV "don't stand so close to the TV Andréa, your eyes can turn into triangles"... You light up my life darling girls...

Here we go again...

The first snow arrived and it was a bit of a chock considering it was 17 degrees just a couple of weeks back...


At least we don't need to worry about mosquitos...

The picture I take with me.

This past weekend was Halloween and Facebook and Instagram overflowed with pictures of children going trick or treating. My girls also dressed out but these are the pictures I take with me from Halloween 2014:



Two of my favorite girls chatting away, my dear 86-year-old grandmother and my sweet 3-year-old daughter. Love is ageless.
