Happy New Year

 I'll end this year by treating you to some of our Christmas pictures :)

 

Underneath our Christmas tree, and hanging in it, were some gifts in the morning.

Someone was -very- exited about this box :)

Pup and Santa

Pup got a package so big he accidentally dropped it on his way back...

... then sat and eyed it for 5 minutes...

... before taking of with it...

... it was a big project for a (not so) small (anymore) pup to get

 the huge and heavy box to the kitchen. There he stayed... 

And stayed and stayed :)

At home I made him a train table.

Hopefully we'll not have train-booby traps all over the place now :)

Hjulaftons tävling

Jag tävlar om en vagn hos Cresent: crescentbarnvagnar.se/blogg

Julafton är såklart hos Crescent barnvagnar Hjulafton! Denna vinst gör kanske den även till Kulafton?

Crescent Trike i modefärgen tangerine tango (Pantone Color of the Year 2012).

Om jag vinner får den nog flytta till Irma i Skåne :)

tomorrow is Christmas Eve

Right now I'm taking a break in decorating the tree (lights, star, glitter and candy canes are up) while waiting for pup to fall asleep. Having a nice time finishing of the last presents (pup calendars for the grand folks) in the light of the tree and the BIG paper star in the window.

I wish you all a wonderful Christmas, remember to stop and enjoy the moment  every now and then, like I do now, even when all other preparations ae in total chaos <3 br="br">

Santa's helpers

Full at work on Christmas gifts :)

bugger blogger

I spent a whole night deleting pictures, editing one post after the other, so that Blogger would let me load some new ones. What happens? Not diddely squat can I tell you! It still say I have filled my alloted space - buy more.

And then the stupid site erased my post. Fine, wrote it up again, only to find it refusing to post it... GAH!!!

I'm actually considering abandoning ship and heading elsewhere...

getting ready for x-mas

This is what Santa will bring my pup. Bought it yesterday, because the toystore had a great price (went from 94€ to 58,60€) and only one set left. I believe my little train-tastic conductor will be thrilled :)
I only wish the "polar express" gift sets were still for sale, since that's the latest obsession. They are available on e-bay, for outrageous prices though....

1-UP

I found a t-shirt like this in the second hand store last week, only it was butchered, hem and neck lining cut away sloppily. Payed 1€ for it, intending to fix it up for pup.

My puppy-love races through life at a cutthroat pace, climbing on this and that and whatnot. I figured his guardian angels might need a hand in shape of an extra life, just in case :) 

At swimming, pup has learned "the Dolphin dive"
...one...

...twothreedive!...

 Lucky I knew he would do that...

Birthday Boy

The birthday boy with the first gift of the day, all the way from Lava & Irma in Sweden. A gorgeous hoodie in the same print as his favorite blanket, hence the reaction: "WOW! Blankie!"

His godfather gave him a fire station... With two fire trucks, a lead car, a boat and a gazillion little tiny things.... And the pup was happy (ignore the father who decided blinking felt like the right thing to do)

The cake. Pup chose the picture himself :)

Blowing out the candles...

... and then giving himself a big hand for the success :)
I love his happy smile :)

I'm gnuffy and I know it...

gnuffy gnuffy gnuffy gnuffy yeah, gnuffy yeah, gnuffy yeah (melody stolen from LMFAO)

granny's little... helper?

I was absent for the first part of cookie making,
because I was sewing this spiffy apron for pup.

When someone wasn't cooperating with the cameramom,
bribes came into the picture.

Nom nom nom

Hmmm... did you put something in my cookie?

Then a nap...

And the cookie making was on a roll again :)

Yhough someone ate the cut out cookies almost faster than granny could make them :)

I can myself I can

Better picture of apron :)

we have a plan

Today me and pup are going to granny to bake gingerbread cookies :)

Though I think we'll have quite the amount of this as well...

Happy Halloween

To all who celebrate it, I wish you a frightful night :)

gen-Y revisited

I had to request a new password, but after that I spent my night browsing my old domains in the "Flight to Phoenix" area of the Lex. Ah, the lex...
If you were'nt along for the ride, you can never understand the insanity. It was love, friendship, bonding, laughing, crying, writing, no sleeping (certainly no sleeping), teasing, writing to avoid cencoring and so on.
It was sheer madness and I loved it!
I really miss those days.

the Mad Hatter strikes again

I love my friend Paulinha for reminding me of my Mad Hatter days a few years back :)
Yesterday, I made myself a hat just like pup's.

❤ love ❤

Just a picture of what I love, books and sharing them with my fiends ❤

And a picture of someone else I love, wholeheartedly ❤

I am number four...

I got tipped of by Misty, that the awesome movie "I am number four" was actually a book first. Since I'm in a reading-lapse, I ordered the ones available (4 all in all at the moment) and they should arrive this week. I'm very much looking forward to this!

For the rest of the year, there is just one release I'm eagerly anticipating, namely:

Hm, yeah, I kinda had to post both, because I really couldn't choose between Gandalf and the Dragon, though it's a cranky vicious old beast.

Farmer to be?

Monday and Tuesday my little pup spent at Greatgranny's in Kumlinge, along with his granddad. They were on a mission, to get all the potatoes up from the soil. Pup had mighty fun =)

And this weekend it's the Harvest Festival, with open farms all over the main land and lots of fun for kids. Pup's favourites was all the cowsies (though, the favourites of the cowsies actually were bulls...) and the tractors.
