Life.....

.....is busy but good. 

We had a nice surprise the other day at work. My boss told us that on Thursday morning we had a  meeting to go to and we had to be in our room, where we take our breaks, at 9.10am sharp.We were all wondering what was happening. He said it was something good so we could relax, none of us were getting fired!

When 9.10am came we were all gathered wondering what was going on.He told us we had to go down to the Home Economics building with him....oh this was starting to sound good!!! As we got nearer the smell of delicious food filled our nostrils!

 

It turned out that we were being treated to breakfast! Two of the children who have learning disabilities get cookery classes on a Thursday, just them and a teacher. They thought it would be a great idea to make a "happening" for us. They would cook breakfast and surprise us. It was absolutely wonderful! They had set the table and decorated it so beautifully. They had made name tags and menus for us five that were there.

 

 It was so much fun to see how involved they were with it all. Emma, one of the children, got us to sit down and then told us she thought we deserved a treat because we kept the shcool so clean for them and we work so hard. That was just so sweet. 

The food was delicious, and I am not only saying that! I have never tasted such a good omlette with bacon, mushrooms and tomatoes. They had also made bread. Again delicious! We had a fruit smoothie which also was soooo good and then for dessert a helping of fruit in a delicious creamy dressing. (I love that word - DELICIOUS!!! (The first picture is actually the dessert.)  They were an inspiration to us! I love my school!

Then on Friday Sara had a birthday. She turned 21!! This is the first time she has not been with us on her birthday. It was very strange. Leah decided to go and visit. So Friday afternoon found us in Copenhagen to get a train to Aarhus. Sara would meet her at the other side and they would have a weekend together. 

Christian (Sara´s boyfriend) has a sister Leah´s age so they were going to meet each other and get to spend some time together too. Looking forward to hear about it all this afternoon when Leah returns home.

Things with the house are going well. Most of the furniture is moved. We only need to get our clothes packed and Andrew´s computer and desk moved. Also all the kitchen cupboards need to be packed down. The kitchen in the new place is not ready yet. We are waiting on our brother-in-law to have time to get the worktop and sink on. Hopefully sometime this coming week we will get that done. 

We have just too much stuff!! I keep packing and packing and there still seems to be so much stuff in the old apartment. Not furniture, just other things that we have in cupboards!! But the end is in sight. Hopefully by the middle of this week the old apartment will be empty and ready for a good cleaning.

Kristian and I slept here on Friday evening. 

Saturday morning and Kristian went away on a go-kart trip to Sweden. He deserved a break. He has worked so hard. Every year his go-kart friends go to Sweden for a training weekend from Saturday to Sunday. They train on a Saturday and then have a BBQ in the evening. He was soooo happy to be able to go to this as he didn´t think he would make it because of the move.

I meanwhile have moved into the new place. I stayed here last night. I was home at the old place packing and ate dinner with Andrew over there. Andrew wanted to stay in the old apartment as his computer has not been packed yet, so he stayed there and I came over here and spent the night. We also moved Shadow over Friday evening so she is starting to get used to the new house. 

So hopefully by next weekend we all will be living at our new address. Exciting!
