We are the Champion, We are the champion.................

Together with more then 20 friends we drove 1½ hours north to get to the 900 m long toboggan. My goal was to ignore the hangover I had from the awesome party yesterday and get the fastest time of the day. And so I did. My good friend Christian was my passanger in the fastest ride of the day! Thank you Champion for outstanding teamwork!!

Day-care

Today was the last way on the 2 weeks introduction at the day-care. I cried when mum dropped me of this morning. Otherwise the weeks have been very successful. The last couple of days I've started to be very aware of the other kids and sometime it become too much and I start to miss mum. But she has placed my pillow and my dummy at the day-care which the teachers let me have to calm down and get in the mood to play again. I've been eating lunch and sleeping for the last three days without problems. So now I'm considered being a licensed day-care kid!! But it takes a lot of energy having lots of kids around, so after a bath with mum I couldn't keep my eyes open... fell sound asleep at 7.30.

Baking

I'm not going to translate what these cookies are called here in Sweden!! For you who doesn't speak Swedish, let's forget about the name, and just say that they are Jummy and that there's about 50 of them in our freeze. You're all welcome at anytime!!!

$$$$$$$$

Lucky people who wins when gambling! And lucky us for being so close family to the winners coz we got a very surprising part of the $$$$$
THANK YOU!!
We used a small amount on something we've been planning to buy for a long time but haven't found that extra money to buy it. So now we finally have something in our bedroom to put some flowers on and which also have hidden spaces for books and other things nice to have close to your bed.

"Looking not so flash"

...was the comment a good, and very honest, friend wrote to me after visiting this website and seeing some of the photos.
I love you too, Glenn!! :o)) Your kitchen will never be done!! (Internal joke!)

To try to forget this comment I went shopping. And today I got my hair cut. Starting to look gooood, I can tell you!! Are just waiting for the facial I have booked on Tuesday! The "Looking not so flash" will be changed to "Looking fabulous!!" At least let me think that for a moment or two!

PLUS, I found an excellent instructor that even has his lessons on You Tube. Billy Blake! Loving his way of exercising! Give me a month and I've started to shape up my body to a decent level again.

It's amazing what a comment from the right person at the right timing can make you get things done. Thanks you, Glenn!

I'm so bad at giving myself good treats. Every time I'm on my way to something that I'm doing just for myself, I feel stressed because every hour I'm away from home and Kevin, is an hour too much. Daniel has been home for 8 month so I'm totally convinced that he can handle it perfectly. But still I'm feeling guilt for every moment I'm doing something for my self.
Am I the only mother that feels this way???

Getting there with our garden

Our vacation is getting to the end. But it feels good to be able to say that we've been doing something every day to get our garden to where it's suppose to be according to the great drawing a good friend did who knows all about garden design!
Here you can imagine half of the circle along our driveway. Flowers are still to come! But the shape isn't to bad, is it??
Even the carport has been in focus. Here with the new spotlights on!

Alma, my friend!

When visiting Alma the other day we got to do something really fun. Splashing with water in any way is one of the best things you can do according to little Kevin!!
