Wet spring!

I read on facebook that you who still live in warm weather have plants growing already! I am jelous, the snow is finally melting here!
Instead of snow, we get water...

 Remember that pretty picture with all that white snow.. well this is what it looks like now.. but it is the first step towards GREEN!

 This is on the way to town and this is NOT a lake, it´s just a field that turned into a lake. The birds are enjoying it, 12 swans yesterday!

 April weather is tricky. Above a cold day, Julianna with friend jumping on the trampoline (that got to see the sky again). Below Sebastian and Julianna after gymnastics spring show. Julianna was an indian and Sebastian a lion (recognize the scooby doo outfit Trisha?!)

Sebastian still really enjoys daycare, lots of art and crafts and dancing and playing.

 But he gets tired. He tends to fall asleep in front of the pellets-stove.

My sister Carin was here over Easter brake.

 

They fit together, don´t they; Julianna & Bellman.

 Went to a wonderful birthday party with a raw food potluck! Food was hanging from the cealing, to be eaten without hands!

I am posing with the birthday girl, Ylva.

A friend and I held a workshop on how to be One with your horse, it was fun and my horses enjoyed it too. At the end we staged a future riding school lesson where the focus was on self awarness and having fun, not accomplishing.

Elisabeth & I

Happy Easter!

Now the snow is starting to melt! Yes!

Happy Easter!

 

 The Easter witch looks really nice this year, with her chicken!

 This Easter wizard looks a little scarier...

 Went to Falun today with Julianna, that played a short part of a short movie. She was to be sad and she did really well.

March

Isn't it supposed to be spring soon? We got another 3 inches of snow last week.

Elena in the car on our way to school.

Well, at least the sun is warm. When it comes out it melts some snow that then freezes to ice at night...

Spinner is happy and Micko too.

Sebastian made a snow angel.

Exciting times when seeds are sprouting.

Time to eat. S & E
