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:
