On the bridge

Torö, Friday. Me and Ebba ♥

 

When mum's asleep she can pretend she likes me too ;) ...

 


Saturday fun!

 

This cute baby horse was very interested in Tindra and wanted to give her a kiss!

Mother horse was curious as well and thought it was fun with another visit. She even said hello in her own neighing way when we came back on Saturday.

 

 

I wanted to bring her home with me ♥

 

 

 

 

My company on the road! The picture is taken outside a giant ghost house.

When we walked up to it we saw a car standing outside plus a pair of shoes inside the door. That made the girls turn around, so unfortunately we didn't step inside to see if we could find any ghosts - but there was probably 1 in the wardrobe, and another one under the bed.

 

 

Yatzy-times with Mikael and Patrik!

 

 

Amanda sat down but she hardly got any rest before the guys throwed her in the water ...

 

 

 

 

 

Laboda Open has begun. A battle of life and death with 5 teams and 10 different activities.

 

 

Mandy with the dogs; Tindra, Boss and Tarzan.

 

 

 

 

 

8 persons in the boat. It all went well, no one fell over board.

 

 

 

 

Kräftskiva or as Google Translate says it "crayfish party". Food, wine and shots!

 

 

 

 

 

Jocke turned a little bit crazy during the evening and after this he sat at the table drinking out of the same bottle, with the same weird look in his face. Luckily we managed to get him some water afterwards, and even though he didn't feel great when he woke up this morning it could have been worse - much worse :) What a LOVELY weekend!

 

 

After a weekend like this it's nice to be home on the couch.
However, it's a bit boring as well - four days in the same house as a bunch of other fun people is awesome, and I would defenitely do it more often if I got the chance.

& yea, tomorrow it's time again! Issele and I are going to Katrineholm where we'll meet up with some friends from Malta. Jenny, Evelina, Sara, Mattias, Honken maybe and some others.

I think it will be great! Of course I'll take some pictures and show you Wednesday ;) - nightie!


A walk in the rain

Camilla and I took Tindra for a walk and said HI! to all the animals along the road.

Fat and tired cows who didn't feel like coming close to the fence and a lot of cute horses!

 

 

 

It's cool to see how interested the horses are in the dog, and she just wants to run inside :)

 

 

 

During the walk it started raining. A LOT! We were totally wet into our underwear.

It wasn't very fun, but one should always think positive and the mosquitos disappeared when the rain started pooring down - they showed up as soon as it stopped, but a few minutes without them was nice. Cam looks quite happy on the picture below, don't you think?

 

 

The sun decided to come back after our walk.

 

 

Begy joined at lunch time, and kept Jocke company while preparing the scewers.

 

 

 

Amanda came in time for dinner and afterwards we played some games and waited for Mikael who came later. Watched the beginning of a movie, fell asleep in front of the fireplace and realized it was time to say goodnight.


Engelbrekts bruk

Since the sun didn't show up as expected Friday morning we went to Norberg for some shopping and touristing after breakfast. We took a tour at Systembolaget (where you buy alcohol in Sweden), Konsum to buy some more food, Röda Korset to find a big bowl (didn't succeed) and then we moved on to a place called Engelbrekts bruk to check it out ...



My super amazing crew for the day! ♥







It was a beautiful place with green lawns, trees, old houses and lakes.
We started reading about the old buildings but we weren't too interested so I don't remember very much about it. But it was nice and relaxing to walk around over there!








Hornudden

Hello there, I'm back in Stockholm after a lovely weekend!

 

Camilla, Jocke and Robin picked me up Thursday morning and we arrived to Aspö, Hornudden at around six in the evening. Said HI! to everyone and served ourselves with a glass of wine. Since some of the guys in the family had their birthdays recently or soon, we celebrated them. Dinner, drinks, chattering, cigarettes and Ogga Chakka - singing game.

 

No pics from Thursday, but below you'll find a few from our Friday - sun & fun.

 

 

The weather was great, so after a nice walk we relaxed in the sun.

 

 

 

Summer drink and cheezeballs before the games begun ...

 

 

 

We started out with a Swedish game called KUBB - unfortunately the girls team lost.

Later we continued with dart. I think we lost that as well, but only by 1 point, so not far off.

 

Camilla and Jocke had a music quiz with only Bruce Springsteen music since we were going to the concert at Ullevi the day after, and Bosse didn't know about it and they wanted to reveal it in a fun way. Although he didn't realize anyway until Tina told him :-)

 

 

 

 

Tess and Tomas made a tasty dinner with extra spice! To that some rose wine.

 

After the dinner we watched the Olympics 2012 Opening Cermony, then we said good night!


More pictures

Camilla, Jocke and I went to Trosa yesterday. A bit later Begy joined as well.

 

We started with lunch at a cute café called Tre små rum (Three small rooms).

 

 

 

 

 

 

This cool car was parked at Jocke's parents place.

 

 

Ohyes, she's a poser.

 

 

We took a walk to Trosa Havsbad. The weather was lovely!

 

 

 

 

After the walk we played Yatzy and drank rose wine while the boys took the boat for some fisihing, and before we left we were invited to dinner together with Joakim's family.

We had a really nice day! but I was so tired when I got home ...

It was a while ago since I fell asleep before midnight on a Saturday night.


Trip to Trosa

 

Today we've been to Trosa - for lunch, a walk, Yatzy and dinner. A lovely day ♥

I will tell you more about it tomorrow (I also have some more pics) ... Nightie, sweet dreams!

 

 


Nynäshamn

 

 

 

 

When work was done for the day we decided to for dinner, so we went to restaurant Kroken in Nynäshamn - it is really good! I've been there a couple of times and the food has always been amazing. Afterwards we found the ice cream that made Ebba smile like a fool :)

 

 


Thursday

All Swedes know that you have to "fika" every now and then!

 

 

... especially all construction workers - I've heard it's what they do best ;)

 

 

 

Taking a walk with my mother, Camilla and Ebba.

 

 

 

This is what the house looks like from one end. Can't wait til it's done! It already looks great.

 

 

 

Inside from the future bedroom, overlooking the hallway and living room area.

 


Happiness

... for a dog is as simple as ice cream! ♥

 

 

Picture from yesterday in Nynäshamn where we spent our evening. More pics are on the way.


Sjöstigen 7

These pictures are from Friday last week when I visited mum and dad at Oxnö.

 

My mum and I took a walk with Ebba, found wild strawberries and later the dog took a swim.

It's fun to watch her in the water because she puts down her whole head in the water and pushes it up hard so that the water's splashing all around her. Reminds me of Tösen! ...

 

 

 

 

 

This is what the house looks like from one direction. I will show you more of it another day!

 

 


14th of July

Good morning Saturday! Everything looks much better in the sun light.

 

 

Tindra likes the sun as well c",)

 

 

Why don't we start the day with a beer? (nuts). & continue until we fall asleep.


 

 

 

Elsa Andersson's café in Norberg with the girls.

 

 

Back home - let's go for a walk! Camilla is pretty in pink ♥

 

 

 

New BFF's? ... The horse was really interested in the small black jumping thing on the ground.

 


13th of July

This is what we laid eyes on when getting out of the cars. Beautiful view!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Joakim showed us his super-cool dance moves when Jacob started playing the guitar.

 

 

Tomas tried to play golf. It didn't end very well ...

 

 

 

 


Music and dance after the dinner! A lovely evening with lovely friends ♥

 

 


Pink Flamingo

Yesterday started with breakfast and jet ski with Valle!

I was scared to death, but it was cool! And fun (afterwards at least).

 

Later we met up with Henrik and we went out with his awesome boat, The Pink Flamingo - a.k.a. Molgan. We drove to Small Hole where we spent some time in the sun, took a swim or two with the Disney Princesses and listened to Jack Johnson. What an amazing day!

 

I will surely miss being able to do things like this ...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you ♥ I'll miss both of you like crazy.


Something blue

This morning I met up with Rob & his crew, we rented a car and started our drive to Gozo.

 

First stop was at Ramla Bay where we spent a couple of hours in the sun. It feels like the water is almost as hot as the temperature on land atm ... Everything everywhere is boiling! After the beach we tried to find Azure window. I will never, ever learn to drive and actually find the way over there. I've been 3 times and I've never found the way quick and easy - even though I must say it was much better last time with 1 more girl in the car instead of 3 guys who all knew the way (+1 girl who always knows best) yes, me). Well, as you can see on the pictures below we found it eventually. It is a cool place, even the third time.

 

 

 

 

 

Later - after some climbing, ice cream, water, juice, swimming, photographs, talk about food - we took the car to Marsalforn where we had dinner at a restaurant called Menga Antik. The food wasn't extrordinary but alright, and the place was sweet and nicely located. After that we were all tired and wanted to go home, so we did. And we managed a whole day without killing eachother (which could have been the case). I'm proud of us :) Thanks for a lovely day!

 


Stop smoking

 

Me & my brothers ♥

 

Thank you Amanda for the picture. You just gotta love instagram!
