a long visit from new friends....

....came to an end today.

I got the first Twilight book at christmas, and just now finished the fourth one. And i really don't care what everybody else thinks, i love this story. There, i said it!

Hopefully i now means that i am back in the world of sleeping, photography, scrapbooking and so on.

Speaking of scrapbooking...a lot of new "must haves" from my two favorite brands in the scrapbooking world Sassafras Lass and Cosmo Cricket

Lovet it, Love it, love it

busy days

We met this jolly guy at the kindergarten christmasparty...

...we open several of these every morning...

...and some of these...

...we visited Tivoli...

...had fun...

...and we had to buy Brian a new wintercoat, because he forgot his at home, an hours drive away...!!!...

...we have made a lot of these (mazipan balls covered with dark rich chocolate)...

...the very first snow of the season, had to be tested...

...lucky for me my Christmas holiday begins tomorrow after work...

B is for Benjamin

Can't belive that this handsome little guy, is the same as the cute baby i held in my arms almost 4 1/2 years ago. Times goes by so fast.

We shot these pics last weekend, the one below with the timer on. I'm looking a bit odd, but it is so rarely that have my picture taken together with Benjamin, so i have to do it myself, and this is actually one of the better ones.

Here Benjamin is trying to show Anton( my godson) how to look/smile/pose while getting your picture taken. He is not quite believing him, i think...

Christmas time is here

December mornings spend playing with the gifts from the advent calender

Dreaming of a white Christmas...

The adventskrans- for lighting a candel the 4 last sundays before Chrsitmas.

I think a was a little inspired from the work and art of Shane Brox

My three first advent calender gifts, from my "advent-calender-group" over at Scrapsisters.

...and even with all that going on, I can't seem to find my Chrsitmas spirit.

Wow look at my friend Anna...

...a picture of her and her sister (the bride) was chosen "bridal look of the month" at Nicole Millers.

Pretty pots

Look what i bought, aren't they pretty? I think it is the beginning of a collection...

...also found a cute cowboy for Benjamin

Our first Halloween

We decorated muffins...

...and cake...

...after dinner, the children decorated halloweencookies...

...and we played fun games in the dark...

...trick or treated a little bit

...and ate a lot of candy just before bedtime...

...it was a really nice and fun evening, and think we are going to do it again next year!

Little green bug

Benjamin made a new friend yesterday

I took some selfportraits this morning. My blog/e-mail photos are over a year old, so i figured it was time for some new ones. Now i just have to chose one. I rarely like to look at pictures of myself, who does? But i think these are ok, i look a little tired, even though it's 8.30...
