Booger life: August 2018

I am a little behind so we will look back a little but first of all I want to say

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NOAH!!

We have had 6 amazing years with you and look forward to many more!

About two weeks ago me and the boys went back to Fårö to see my sister and the boys's cousins. We had not seen them in three years so we were all very exciting! We got to spend a few fun and intense days on Fårö!

All six cousins

Found this very strange bug but after doing some googling I learned that it turns into a moth

Fun with mormor by the Fårö light house

Measuring a very old oak tree

We had a chance to be extras in a movie recorded on Fårö while we were there. The scene was a wedding so we had to find out nice clothes :-) The boys ended up being part of the actual ceremony and got special outfits in the end but it was fun dressing them up :-)

Linn had given me horse back riding for my birthday and it was such a great feeling to be back in the saddle!!!

Gabriel is now riding his bike like a pro!

It is windy at the top :-)

Reaching the goal for our little trip, the ship "Fortuna" that has been there since the early seventies (I think it was)

It got cold after a late swim

Last day with the cousins and we went to the Pippi house amusement park on Gotland.

Left Gotland again for this time and went back to our house. Lots and lots a work ahead of us to shape up our house.

It is fun letting the boys practice steering on our little dirt road.

Wonderful surprise when we got back to our house

Pears and grapes in harmony :-)

Alex recently discovered Nyckelharpa and luckily we could go listen to some traditional Swedish music where he could see it live :-)

We will try to keep up with our fellow home schoolers in Ormond so its time to bring out the school books now!

Lol!! Good for them that they are sleeping!!

We have finally moved into our house!!!! I felt like a long time we had to wait for the house to be good enough to move into. The last renters did not really leave it spotless, so to speak, and we are still struggling with returning the house in shape. But that is a long and boring story for another time...

We had some wonderful days on Fårö before we went back to the main land. We spent two days with some friends of mormor and morfar and their four grand children who normally live in Switzerland. The kids a had a great time and Gabriel is still talking about the girl he was playing with, or rather was taken care by :-)

Marlee, Noah and Gabriel also got to go see the circus with mormor (and me) and that was so fun! They got very inspired and are practicing their own tricks now :-)
