Sebastian got a bike

Here is sa short video with Sebastian on his bike. It does not have training wheels but a handle for me to hold.

Summerfun

Elena now rides Spinner (after he got a "real saddle" as she said) and she is doing it very well and enjoying it so much!

Here is Sebastian on my lap in Micko´s cart. We bounce around a lot!

End of year school performance. Here is Embla and Julianna. Elena ran off. They all sang and it was beautiful as usual.

Sebastian wanted to wear a dress like the girls did... and he was proud of it too.

Here he is with Embla´s sister and a girl I do not know but they all had fun playing in the park as the performance was quite long.

Here is Sebastian at a practice run with his new bike (that did not make the picture). I will post a video later. He loves his bike!

Summer theatre. Spellbound aren´t they?

We sent these pictures in for a green smoothie mustach pic competition. We drink these smoothies every day anyway.

Kathy is here from San Francisco! She is traveling with Bart for the whole month of June and ofcourse staying with us while he is home. It has been great fun! Here in Gävle town with one of the numerous painted goats.

Even though the weather was chilly Julianna had fun in the water.

We went canooing!

Sebastian fell asleep!

Moa and Elena. It was so beautiful on the lake!

Julianna on track and field, Circus and summer finally!

Julianna has joined some track and field practice in the spring and joined in a competition last weekend. It was a hot day but fun and I had to post this because of this great picture of her jumping the waterfence during her 400 meter race:

She got two bronz medals and earned them well by jumping far and bravely running 400 meters.

It is now summer weather and first swim was in clothes!

We went to a wonderful circus performance! Sebastian laughed so heartily at the clown several times and enjoyed the whole show. Julianna loved the acrobatics and the dogs and Elena loved the horses and the crazy last number with motorcycles in a round ball of steel. Elena also managed to get the circus director´s autograph.

 Also, tomorrow school´s out for the summer! The girls start again August 22 with a 10 year celebration party of the school.

Sebastian video

I filmed this with my phone so it really varies in color and focus but Sebastian is so cute dancing, jumping and singing on the table... I gave him a piece of bread with a new spread on it and he did not like it. He also did not want to get of the table but he was so cute wanting to be filmed that I let him.

Liseberg and home

After 7 hours in a van I arrived in Gothenburg, and the next day I took 5 kids to Liseberg for 12 hours! Liseberg is a huge and beautiful amusement park with lots of rides for all ages, My mom came up and joined us and it was so nice to see her and Sebastian loved driving her in "grandpa´s car".

In "grandpa´s car" Farfars bilar.

Julianna and her friend Embla dared going down that hill behind them.

I made some changes in our living room. First I put up this play tent that I sewed for Sebastian.

And second, for my birthday I gave a gift to the cats, a floor to ceiling cat tree with a condo and hammocks. They were happy to say the least. Sebastian likes it too!

Julianna and Micko after a fast run!

Julianna came in 4th place!

Julianna´s video was voted into 4th place! Hurray! Congratulations!
