February 2019

 We had a week off work in February for our winter holidays. We didn't go traveling but stayed at home and had fun. I was able to meet up with different friends at a few of my favourite cafes. Sometimes we met for hot chocolate and cake, other times for brunch. I love taking time out to catch up with my friends. I am so blessed to have some wonderful friends and friendships in my life and I cherish everyone of them. 




We had a girls sleepover. Some friends came and stayed the night and we did the whole works - good food, games, facemarks, fun and loads of laughter and chatting.



The weather was rather nice in February and so once again we were out exploring the area.....



 Kristian and I also had a few dates at local coffee shops. Kristian  had only a few days off work (I had a week) but we made the most of those days when he was home. 


We got some work done around the outside of the house. It badly needed some tender loving care. Since we moved in just as the winter started we hadn't been in the garden at all. The last owner had not really looked after the garden so it really did need some work done. 




 Our goal was to move this pile of stones. It was hard work but so worth it. (I forgot to take an after picture - but we did get them moved!) We got the hedge cut and started a little work on the garden.



 There are still a ton of things to do, but sure Rome wasn't built in one day. We will take it one step at a time. 
 We even got our bikes out and dusted for our first bike ride this year. 
 We have a forest close by, so we took a ride through the forest. 

Again we found some beautiful nature spots. 



We also enjoyed some wonderful sunsets at the beach. 



 At the end of February we took a trip over to visit Sara and Christian at the other side of Denmark. We had such a wonderful weekend with them. They live right in the city so it is such a change for us to be there were everything is happening just outside the door. 















 It was lovely seeing Sara and Christian and being in the buzz of the city but it was also lovely to come home again to the quietness of the countryside.
