Five Year Wedding Anniversary today – Firar träbröllop idag :)

Till min stora kärlek Peter på vår bröllopsdag!
Nu gifta i fem fantasktiska år,
hos dig mitt hjärta bäst mår.
Det går inte en enda dag,
utan att du får mig att glädjas över varje andetag.
Du kanske tror jag överdriver,
men det är så sant som jag skriver.
Tack för att du är du min underbara,
jag lovar att alltid älska dig precis som du vill vara.
Ser fram emot att fira fler bröllopsdagar med dig fint och flott,
enda tills den dagen vi går och lägger oss för gott.
Ps. Det blev ingen present med papper och snören denna gången till dig,
men hoppas dikten gör dig glad och att du känner dig enormt älskad utav mig.

Happy Easter to all

We have fantastic weather this Easter weekend and have tried to make the most of it. Yesterday evening we actually sat outside and ate dinner, first time this year. We were at Elin and Alex’s house in Pixbo and had one of our traditional tapas evenings. This time we had an American theme and everything was soo yummy, see the picture below of all the goodies… I would say the winner was the buffalo wings, they were amazing!  Today we’ve taken it quite easy but we had a late pick-nick lunch in Slottskogen in the sunshine and then a walk around the park. Noemi has had en egg hunt today and we also made her into a Easter witch, so cute! Tomorrow we’re off to cousin Vincent in Onsala for more Easter celebrations and a bbq, hopefully the sun will shine on us for this too…

Vistitors from Oz

On the 29th of December Emma, Amanda and Erin came to visit for 6 nights. Emma and Amanda are currently spending a year working in England and Erin is spending a year in Germany but they are all originally from Australia. Emma has talked about visiting me ever since we met ten years ago when living in New York. So, finally came the day when she made it here in the good company of her sister Amanda and their friend Erin. It’s a difficult time of year to show Gothenburg’s best side… but our aussies luckliy found the snow and ice “exotic” and enjoyed all the activities we got up to. We started their visit of by ice-skating at Heden. We were all terrified (I haven’t been in 15 years, Erin only once before and Emma and Amanda not ever) but we all managed close to an hours ice-skating without breaking any limbs and having quite a few laughs whilst at it. Other places we visited/activities we did was dinner at Mañana, drinks at the Australian pub dancing Dingo, seeing the moose at Slottskogen, sunset over a frozen sea at Saltholmen (spectacular views!!), scrimp sandwich at Gothia towers, shopping at Nordstan and Frölunda torg, Universeum, lunch at my parents, Gothenburg City museum and lunch at Kronhusbodarna. The girls also went by themselves to see an ice-hockey match whilst I was working on the Sunday. On New Years Eve I showed our guests Slottskogen in the day whilst Peter was preparing dinner. At five we all went down to the harbor to see the fire-works and after that we ate the three course dinner that Peter had prepared beautifully. We wanted to serve our guests something they had never had before and went for the moose for the main course. After dinner a few of Peters friends came over to join us and to celebrate the strike of midnight and the New Year. We were sad to see our guest go but are hoping they’ll come back in the Summertime so we can show them what Gothenburg is like when not entirely covered by snow and ice!
