morsdag, the real one.

our weekend of fun continued with a visit to farmor and farfar. since farfar has not been feeling so well since his operation we have not been able to see them so often, so it is a real treat with farmor and farfar snuggles. plus it was swedish mother´s day, always a good excuse.

 zoe of course found flowers,  lots and lots of them...

 we even stopped by and played with farmor´s lambs for a bit. 

 then there were of course more snuggles.

it was a lovely weekend with great company and yummy food.  not to mention i got some lovely plants at the hög greenhouse for mother´s day, including a good sized wisteria, which thomas has promised not to kill this time.  zoe got me a really beautiful petunia, i will have to and get a pic of one of these days.

the weekend of the fake mother's day

now that we are both working, we really appreciate our weekends.  after a yummy breakfast in the greenhouse, thomas and girls chilled out in there for nearly the whole day.  nice.

 then somehow we mixed up our american mother's day, and thought that it was today.  it was not until late afternoon that we realized our mistake.  but by then it was too late,  they had been spoiling me all day, zoe was making dinner, and mormor was on her way over.  so this year we had the fake mother's day, and skipped the real one.  works for us.  i cannot believe what a big girl zoe has become, she can cook!  and she is good at it too.  there was very little help from pappa and it was delicious. thank you zoe!

 and our little wild child has done it again.  the other day i heard a bonk, and then a little cry, but then nothing more, so i figured it was not serious and continued doing the dishes or whatever i was doing.  eilja came by laughing and playing a bit later, and i did not think about it again, until later that evening i was snuggling with her and i must have touch her forehead, and she said "ouch, my head" and i looked and sure enough, under her way too long bangs was this lovely doozey.  tough kid.  crazy kid, love that kid.

happy mother's day!

woke up to snuggles in bed, and then a delicous breakfast in the greenhouse.  the only problem was that it seemed thomas and i now had caught the stomach bug.  dangit!

but the grandparents still came over, but ended up having help out quite a bit as thomas and i were really under the weather, but we all survived.  but due to feeling crap, the camera did not really come out. that is until mormor started feeding eijla ice cream,  i do not know was pulling funnier faces.  it was very amusing.

well,  we sure do know how to eat ice cream and strawberries. yum.  thanks my dear family for a lovely day.  love you guys.
