About time....

We've nearly been in England for a week now on holiday. We've enjoyed the lovely weather going to parks and a lake near Nana and Papa. A while back we decided it was about time to show the princess and little man where they were born. We felt we were ready to go, now it is nearly 6 years ago everything changed.

And we were ready, ready to see the Whittington Hospital where they were born, to see our old neighbourhood and play in the park we used to go to all the time. We ended the day at Alexandra Palace from where we could see the road we used to live on and enjoy the view of London.

We met friends we hadn't seen for a while, we chatted, enjoyed a lovely picnic and even after nearly 6 years it still felt like home.

Tomorrow the princess will be 8 years old which will be celebrated with a family brunch and princess castle birthday cake. Monday we will go to Brighton for 3 days, a place we haven't been for over 8 years. We are very excited and this year England is certainly giving us the summer of our dreams. Fantastic weather all the time we're here....

Beach trip before we're off....

Living 5 minutes from the beach it is rude not to use, right? With the weather being so warm and sunny we need to cool down... So off we went yesterday. Below you can see a few pictures. Tomorrow we're off to England for 2 weeks where I hear the weather is lovely too. Happy holidays everyone.

Wow, the time flies when you're having fun.

So blogging suffers as tiredness kicks in when the children are in bed. Which at the moment is at least an hour later than normal. We're half way through the 2nd week of their school holiday and have already done so much. We need days with nothing on the agenda but that's not happening soon. It's okay as we're all happy and with the weather being amazing, it's just a delight it's holiday time.

There's been several dinners consumed outside, water pistol fights, fun with moster's (aunty's) dog, sleeping to 8am which I appreciate so much, cuddles with Muffin the cat, helping daddy check oil on the car, watching Murray win Wimbledon (which was sooooooo exciting) and the princess is off to mormor's (grandma's) summerhouse on a mini holiday, just her. The little man will have his mini holiday there when we're back from our holiday in England.
I've heard the weather is amazing so Hertfordshire here we come (Monday next week) and we expect the weather to stay amazing.... Did you hear me weather man???

Well, here's some Instagram moments and I hope you'll forgive me my lack of blogging. I can't even promise you I willl shape up, sorry. It's holiday and time just seems to fly so I have too little time but at lot of fun!

The big truck....

Sunday cousin M celebrated he had finished college. Tradition here in Denmark is you get to drive around visiting everyone's house in a truck or bus. They only stay 10 minutes at each house just enough time to have drink, a little food and a much needed visit to the loo. Then they're off again to the next house.
They put flowers and balloons on the truck or bus and loud music is playing as they drive from house to house.
Cousin M's truck arrived with Gangnam Style playing loudly. While all the young people hurried inside,  the little man and princess got to sit in the truck and test the horn....
BEEP BEEP...
