Its Summer!

Mike and Wendy and Ian and Eliza came to play and we had fun. It finally felt like summer. First Wendy ran her race with her sisters in the mud (see Wendy's blog for details) and then we just hung out together.

Pretending to sleep in the hammock.
And there was lots of playing in the water in the backyard that I forgot to get the camera out and takes shots. Just as well. I would have probably gotten wet. It was fun. And freezing cold. The kids ran in after and we turned on the fireplace. Sort of explains summer here this year.
Then there was the aquarium in Sandy. That was fun too!





Then we had to stop in to Ikea on the way home. I needed more lingdon berry jam and those ginger cookie things from Sweden. (Ask Paul and Bonnie they understand) We ate a princess cake while there and picked up a few fun things to just enjoy.


It was a fun time. Thanks so much for coming. We miss you already.

I want to come and eat Swedish cakes and hang out at IKEA. Is that the aquarium you visited? How fun!

It must have been Sweden's National Day when you were there. There were cakes with flags on them all over the place on that day here. It's kind of like Sweden's 4th of July. That is called a Princess Torte. They just kind of use a bare minimum of cake on the bottom and fill it mostly with whipped cream. Swedes are so ingenious. Love the grandkid outing....someday, again.
