Katte/Cats:-)

Vores vidunderlige kat Odin blev pludselig syg og doede inden for nogle faa timer. Det var utrolig haardt for os allesammen, da han var en rigtig god kat.

Pigerne elsker katte og savnede/savner ham rigtig meget saa vi besluttede os for at faa 2 nye katte til dem, hvilket vi ikke har fortrudt et oejeblik. Pigerne elsker at lege med dem og kattene er rigtig gode med pigerne og finder sig i rigtig meget. Ha ha ha

Our wonderful cat Odin became ill and passed away within hours. This was extremely hard on all of us as he was an extremely good cat. 

The girls missed/miss him a lot so we decided to get 2 new cats, which we have not regretted for a second. The girls love playing with them and the cats are very patient with the girls and let them do a lot to them. Ha ha ha

Tur i Biffen/Trip to the Movies:-)

I loerdags var vi alle 4 i biografen for den foerste gang. Jeg havde vundet et pas igennem en radiostation til at se en for premiere paa The Nut Job, en boernefilm om nogle dyr i en park der proever paa at samle nok mad til at overnatte vinteren med en god potion humor m.m. Jeg var lidt spaendt paa hvordan Isabella ville tage det, men det gik helt fantastisk godt. Hun sad mere rolig end Emma gjorde, men de klarede det begge rigtig godt. Saa godt at vi allerede planlaegger vores naeste tur i biffen som familie:-)

On Saturday all 4 of us went to a movie for the first time. I won a pass from a radio station to go to the pre release of the movie The Nut Job, a kid movie about these animals in a park trying to gather enough food to survive the winter, including a lot of humor etc. I was a bit worried that Isabella would not do too well, but she did amazing, even sat more quietly and watched than Emma, but they both did amazing. So well in fact that we are already planning our next trip to the movies as a family:-)

Jul og Nytaar!/Christmas and New Years!

Som naevnt i forrige indlaeg var vi i bjergene i aar at holde jul sammen med hele Aarons familie. Vi boede i lejligheder paa et hotel, hvilket fungerede super fint, da vi lige kunne smutte ned af gangen hvis vi manglede noget eller skulle putte pigerne. Paa turen i bjergene fik Emma proevet at staa paa ski for foerste gang, og begge piger var ude at staa paa skoejter. Isabella var klart den bedste til at staa paa skoejter - bedre end mor, men det siger heller ikke saa meget da jeg er som Bambi paa glat is:-)

Vi formaaede ogsaa at komme i svoemmehal i Canmore og igen i Calgary hvor vi var i 2 dage, for at kunne komme med til vores soede nevoe Isaac's dedication (lidt ligesom at blive doebt derhjemme). Det var en super hyggelig tur med masser af hyggestunder med familien, men det var droen paa mht. aktiviteter, saa der blev ikke slappet saa meget af som vi gerne ville.Maaske det kan lade sig goere naar pigerne flytter hjemmefra:-)

Nytaarsaften blev fejret sammen med vores gode venner Carl-Gustav og Kirsten i deres hjem. Vi valgte at overnatte der, saa vi ikke behoevede at bekymre os om pigerne og deres sengetid og det gik rigtig fint. Vi fik rigtig laekkert nytaarsmad med kransekage og champagne til midnat og fik selvfoelgelig ogsaa set dronningens nytaarstale og halvfems aars foedselsdag, saa det kunne naesten lige saa godt have foregaaet i Danmark:-)

Her kommer lidt billeder fra juleperioden:

As mentioned in the previous post we celebrated Christmas in the mountains with all of Aaron's family. We stayed in condos in a hotel, which worked out really well as we could just run down the hall if we forgot something or had to put the girls to bed. On this trip Emma tried to ski for the first time and both girls went skating. Isabella was definitely the best at skating - better than her mom, but that really does not say much as I skate like Bambi on ice:-)

We also manage to go swimming - once in Canmore and once in Calgary where we stayed for 2 days to participate in the dedication of our sweet nephew Isaac. It was a great trip with lots of cozy moments with the family, but it was filled up with activity and we did not get to relax as much as we would have liked too. Ohh well, maybe when the kids move out. LOL 

New Years Eve was spent in the company of our good friends Carl-Gustav and Kirsten in their home. We decided to stay overnight so that we could put the girls to bed whenever they felt like and not worry about them. We had some really delicious food including kransekage and champagne and of course saw the queens new year speech as well as halv fems aars foedselsdag (danish new year show) so it felt like any other Danish New Years Eve:-)

Here are some pictures from the holidays:
