Early birthday

My boys sang for me this morning!!! I've almost stopped celebrating my birthday, but when getting the attention that my boys gave me this morning I'll never stop wishing for attention on my birthday!! Even if it's one day early we figured we would have better time today then on a weekday.
Daniel spent the whole day on a boat fishing while I spent the day with family Jakobsson's. We worked on some pumpkins with the kids and thought we got pretty good results! And as always when spending time with these lovely people it's quality time to the max!!
Rounded of this day with great company for fresh fish dinner!!

Repairing our roof

Friendship when it's at its best; Chrille offered himself to help us do a first aid operation of our leaking roof so that it can stay dry for another 1-2 years until we have money enough to get the whole roof changed. A crystal clear and beautiful winter day made it quit pleasant to be on the roof. That pleasant that they even took their coffee break up there!! Thanks Chrille for your help today!!
And thanks to grandma for helping out with the kids while I held Combat class at the gym.
With such nice weather I took a long walk with the kids down to the local store to buy candy for tonight when we enjoyed this years first meat fondue with my cousin Sofie and her boyfriend Richard.

Finally Friday

Finally Friday and take away with grandpa and grandma from Malmo. And Micke and Sara decided to drop buy as well which was really nice.

Spiderman

All together again

Mum away for two days in the capital Stockholm while Dad enjoying quality time with the boys. They went swimming on Tuesday and just stayed home today which I was happy for. Cox there's nothing better then coming back home to two happy kids who can't get enough of you. But finally we manage to calm everyone down and went to bed early.

Dentist and tapas

Hectic Monday that was rounded of in a very nice way. Dinner together then play, painting, shower and dancing with the kids. Then I was of to instruct Body Combat at the newly opened gym in Lödde. When I got home there was tapas, wine and candle lights waiting for me. Very nice!! Thanks to wonderful husband for surprises like this! But then back to reality and packing the suitcase for coming two days in Stockholm.

Autumn at its best

All different colour on the trees, crystal air and 20 degrees isn't hard to live with. Today was that day! Just couldn't get enough of being outdoor.
I started the day with a 13,5km racing competition "Kastbergaloppet". First time I've been for a run since awful 30km in Stockholm. But today went well, ended up on 3rd place and best of the women!
While I was running the boys walked Kevin to his scout meeting.
After lunch I took the kids to the playground where we had a lot of fun. In the meantime Daniel painted our new Japanese gate in our garden.
In the afternoon family Adolfsson came by. We had a nice evening together with very nice BBQ, wine and candy!!

Candlelight

Tuesday already and time for the kids to have fun in the swimming pool. Daniel went direct from work to pick up the kids to continue to the swimming hall. They had great time and Kevin is improving his swimming technique every time.
I went straight home to start preparing dinner and pack my suitcase for coming business trip to Berlin. When the boys got home we ate and they told me very excitingly how the swimming went. Calmed down together before putting the kids to bed. Then we lighted some candles, enjoyed vegetables with dip sauce while watching Sweden loose against Germany in soccer.

Samuel

Finally we got around to visit little Samuel. Maria and Robbans newest little baby. What a cuty!! It was very nice to see you all again. Nice breakfast together, lots of talk and the boys seemed to have a good time playing.
On our way home we did the best timing when spontaneously deciding to visit grandma and Klasen. They were just about to set the table with their late lunch. Couldn't get any better:-)

Isak x 2

Today we had many Isaks around us. First Kevin went to "little Isaks" birthday party at the bowling hall Big Bowl in Malmo. In the meantime Oliver and I went to the swimming pool.
After some grocery shopping we met up at home and waited for the other Isak with family to arrive. The men always make dinner when we see family Hanssons which has become a nice tradition. And even today it was a success.
The kids are really starting to become very independent and they doesn't need much assistance anymore. Tonight we didn't see much of them but could hear that they had lots of fun.

Surprise dinner

Happy birthday Håkan and Kent!
Håkan had no idea we all planned to join him for dinner on his birthday. Beautiful food as always and very nice evening!

Lego

After dinner the whole family went Lego crazy! Kevin is mounting Lego sets all on his own by following the instructions while Oliver and Daniel is mounting and playing with Lego characters and animals.

Social Sunday

Our first "sleep in" in a very long time. At 7am Kevin woke us up! Some may think that it is still very early. But if you haven't slept a whole night without having to assist someone with something at least ones every night for 2 years your preferences are slightly different. We so hope this is a new long lasting trend.
Brunch with grandma and grandpa in Malmo in the morning. A quick visit to IKEA to get candlelight's for the winter.
Pancake date with Fam Adolfsson which resulted in taco dinner together. What a fantastic family. We so love your company!

Sofie's 20th birthday

A very very relaxing Saturday. Mum and Oliver went and bought bread rolls for breakfast. Then we fixed with some fun details for Sofies birthday later today before we all went to the gym where mum instructed a Combat class while we had our own gymnastic just outside.
The rest of the afternoon we just hanged around home playing with the kids, watching TV and relaxing in front of the fireplace.
When doing nothing you seem to notice things in the house a little better. We found in the roof just by the entrance that there must be a leak from outdoor. Daniel went up on the roof to confirm that it was leaking in. Now the big question is if we need to eat noodles for a year and change the whole roof or if it's possible to just fix the area around the leak. I can think of more interesting things to worry about.

Later we went to celebrate Sofies 20th birthday. Beautiful dinner and drinks and happy people made it a great ending to a great Saturday.

Cinnamon bun

Baking cinnamon buns with dad. Nice activity a Friday afternoon that our kids enjoy very much.
Rounded of this Friday with dinner at local restaurant with lovely family Bendtsen.

Experimental evening
