Closed ski-hill, evening magic and dance parties galore.

Nothing makes my heart skip an extra happy beat like being around family and family-like friends in a beautiful relaxing setting away from home. Even more than that I love seeing Minea surrounded by these people. 



A small minus in the planning of the trip was the fact that the ski-hill was closed the entire time we were there, major oops and face palm, but renting a snowmobile saved the day and lots of skiing and (extreme) tobogganing was done anyways. 



Our home for a few days





So many intense pool games






A little evening magic for the kids





so many dance parties!

Christmas 2014



Opening her stocking in the morning



Off to Sarah & Warrens for the big Swedish Christmas celebration



Christmas sangria





Then we heard mysterious bells coming from outside and all ran to the window to see


It was Santa! 


All the kids watched with glittering eyes


Some up close...


..and some from a distance



Morning of the 25th and it was time to open presents!


Minea woke up to a brand new little kitchen!







We all got so spoiled!






Seriously so many thoughtful, beautiful gifts! Thank you thank you thank you!!


Seeing the holiday season through the brand new eyes of a 1.5 year old is the biggest gift of all,
