The Kids Birthdays....

Dec 23 08 the morning of Patchouli´s 8th birthday.It´s 07:45 in the morning,you can see the sun just starting to rise above the horizon :)


The Day before Christmas Patchouli turned a big 8yrs old. We didn´t celebrate her birthday as it is too close to christmas. We agreed to wait for the warmer weather to celebrate her 8th birthday.
Here she is showing some of the Goodies her daddy sent her...
She got quite a few pretty birthday gifts, but I havent taken pics of them :(


Ditte turns 18
We took Ditte and her cousin Anna out to Dinner at the Uhre Pub...you gotta try the food there, tastes soooo good with big portions and the service is exceptional, cosy enviroment..

Here the waitress suprises Ditte with the Birthday cake....

We start singing the Birthday song...

Change of seasons



Goodbye to the beautiful autumn colours

I love the vibrant red, orange, and yellow colors that nature provides.The crunchy falling leaves...

Tigerlilly and Dennis share my joy of Autumn


and welcome to the stark elegance of winter

In the winter things are reduced to essentials.
We see the bones of the land, the bones of trees,the underlying structure of life.



I have new thoughts about winter.Snooooooooow :)


,Frozen puddles,

Not too sure if Tigerlilly finds the frozen puddles amusing...

Icy ponds surrounded by green pines


,crisp blue skyed mornings
Frozen grass and leaves



,icy cold winds,coming in from the cold,coughing,sick children needing our love and attention,




openfires,

snuggling with my darling,

hot chocolate and a new begining.
In the winter, snow covers the earth, hardening it, while it rests from growing over the spring and summer. The trees sleep, animals sleep, all awakening in spring for a fresh start and a new begining. After the snow melts, there is new life again... new animal babies, new leaves, new flowers, green grass, children playing outside. It's all about wiping the slate clean and preparing for a new begining in the spring.
I hope this brings comfort and coziness to those that experience the winter blues...
..Enjoy reading our blog...Love,Kisses and Hugs to all of you Fra Dennis, Sharon og Kids.
