talk about extremes

today the girls were dressed up playing in their princess dresses, and they paused long enough for me to grab a shot of my little models. 
 moments later thomas came home from work, not looking quite as pretty all dressed up in blaster dust!

ystad djurpark

becoming a bit of a tradition.  we head to ystad once a year to gawk at the animals!  the girls love petting the goats.
  and there were even pony rides this year!  both girls had a turn and thought it was super fun, (four thumbs up!).
 glitter even got in on the action.  here they are all hanging out at a lookout station checking out the monkeys.
 then there is the playground.  i have to say it is a great place for kids,  though it was way too cold to head to the swimming pool this year.  i even think they are closing the park in just a few days for the season, so we barely made it this year. 

 stopped by farmor and farfar´s on the way home for dinner and glitter got her first bone!  she is growing so fast!

the end of summer

enjoying the last days of decent weather before it gets too cold and the leaves begin to fall.  eijla was pretty proud of the lovely hairdo zoe gave her.  lupin hair!
 then we are enjoying our crazy little puppy.  she is snuggly and wild and often both at the same time.  i can say i have never mopped our floors so often in my life. potty training a 2 year old and having a new puppy means a lot of poop and pee on the floor!  fun.

 and with the beginning of fall comes a new semester, and zoe started a new show dance class with maya!  they love it!  us parents get locked out, so no peeping, but cannot wait to see the show they put on for us in the end!

she came home

yep, could´t wait any longer, we had to bring glitter  (yes, zoe named her) home, and zoe and her have been inseparable since then.  they are so cute together.  think they are going to be really good friends.
then the girls have been talking about moving in together and sharing a room.  so we found them a used bunkbed which we let them paint themselves.  think they did a great job!
