Amazing...

Its been a wonderful weekend. For the first time in a looooooooooooong time we have ALL been home for a weekend. Usually Sara is away at go-kart, and if she is home she usually has 2 or 3 friends staying over. On the weekends that she is home Andrew sometimes is gone. But for this weekend Sara had nothing on and Andrew had nothing on. It was just great to be only us 5, all together!



Now it wasnt like we were "together" the whole time. We were all just under the one roof, everyone doing his or her own thing. Everyone chatting back and forward. It was wondeful!



Saturday evening we had a cosy time. We ate our dinner in the living room, - something we never do when we are all home! While we ate we watched a funny film "Ghost Town" - really enjoyed it.




Today after church Andrew was going to a birthday party for one of the girls from church, so Sara, Leah, Kristian and I were trying to decide what we should do for the afternoon. The girls decided they just wanted to stay at home and sunbathe out on the balcony - the weather here is fantastic!!




Kristian had heard about a car show in a town nearby, so we decided to take a trip up north to check it out. On the way Kristians sister Hanne phoned to see if we wanted to meet up with them, they were on their way up north, and wondered if we wanted to join them for a walk. We told them about the show and decided to meet up.





There was only 1 hour left of the show when we arrived, but we decided to go in anyway. They had all sorts of American cars and trucks, old tractors, old cars, army vechiles....you name it and they had it.

The boys thought they had died and gone to heaven!! Us girls on the other hand found it all VERY boring!!

Amazing how long an hour can feel when you are bored!! haha The men didnt seem to notice - they talked none stop about - guess what? - CARS!!

Finally they announced that the show was closing so off we went to Heather Hill for an ice cream.....

and a walk up the hills to burn off all the ice cream we ate!

We invited Hanne and Flemming home to dinner. Their daughter Christine was at our house already. They had dropped her off to sunbathe with Leah and Sara. We picked Andrew up on the way home. We all had a lovely dinner together. Amazingly there was enough food for all!!(I hadnt planned on having guests for dinner but somehow the dinner stretched to meet the need!!) It really is nice to be spontanous and have people over for dinner without planning it.

Now its late and I should be getting to bed. However its Pentecost weekend - that means holiday over here!! So we have tomorrow off work and school. Can life get much better?!!! So I think, even though I´m tired, I will stay up a little while longer!!
