Long time, no post!

We are busy enjoying summer over here, so I haven't updated the blog in a while. We sure had some fun in the past three weeks with THESE things, among others:

Attending a super cool cowboy/cowgirl themed birthday party!



New inflatable friends!

Making jam!
Finn helped himself to some kitchen utensils one day and announced that he thought he had "figured out how to make jam" from the berries growing in our garden. All he needed from me was a bit of sugar and fresh mint leaves. I gave him both and he went to work.

Lily preferred her berries plain and shared them with daddy.

Looking good!

And did we eat it? You bet! Finn was so proud.


Helping Mama!


Sharing some tender moments.

Enjoying the pool - always a favourite.
(Note Lily's crocodile and Finn's stingray by the edge of the pool.)

Letting daddy sleep in on Saturday and playing with play-doh!


Playing in the garden!

And with Katharina, our neighbours' daughter!

Katharina became a big sister last week, so she stayed with us while her parents were at the hospital welcoming her little brother, Fabian. We all had so much fun, especially Katharina.

Finn and Lily showed her all their toys. And I mean, ALL their toys.

When her daddy came to pick her up Katharina did not want to leave. She just adores Finn. Who can blame her?

Playing circus!


And, just yesterday, having fun at a birthday party!
(Until 10:45pm, by the way. Good thing Lily napped in the afternoon.)


Happy Birthday! You do not look 40. MAYBE 39, at most. ☺ And thanks for the awesome party!



Finn found a friend who took him "wave boarding". I tried and it is HARD.

Beautiful as always!
