Going to Sweden and Stockholm

 On the way to Sweden!! Because of work Alex and Marlee were on a different flight so this is the remaining crew.


The airport in Reykjavík, Iceland. They had fun screens that had rocks moving as the kids were moving in front of the screen. 


Back on the next flight.



The kids were so happy to find snow when we arrived to Stockholm. Mormor and morfar picked us up at the airport, we all had dinner and then they went back to Fårö while we spent a few days in Stockholm. 



First day in Stockholm…

Maria 4 months! And early Christmas

 Last week before leaving for Sweden and  Christmas on Fårö.

Maria in her new outfit for colder weather.



Rafael in my old sweater I wore as a child :-)



Four month already!!!




She loves her finger bunny!


We have been practicing wall sits to strengthen our ski muscles. Record so far is 37min!!! But I told Marlee and Gabriel they had to stop by then as I got worried their legs would hurt too much after. They seemed fine though.

Meanwhile, Gabriel participated in a Christmas parade with some friends.
