Hello!

 

This year we got our first own home! We had to look for something really big to have a chance, so now we have lots of space. We rent out one room to a german guy from nick's work and collect crap for the other rooms. There is also lots of space for visitors!

--> our livingroom is so big we even fit broken pin ball-machines in it, we have a staircase (the black "flag" thing is a shirt hanging to dry from a hook in the ceiling - with it we can get furniture up there. the hook that is.), and a terrace on the roof!

 

In 2012 we will actually live together again (I've been away in northern Sweden for studies and work a lot this year), and I might get some real jobs, in Stockholm!! We're thinking of getting our own cat, or atleast starting to take on homeless cats again like last year. We just have to find a way to keep cats off balconies so they don't fall and get hurt/die.

Christmas was spent at home, we had two friends over and ate ham, meat balls, herring and salmon. And pumpkin pie! My sisters also spent christmas in Stockholm, so we could all meet at Katta and Gustav's place for boxing day snacking.

--> A new baby was born in the family this year! Gustav is holding his and Katta's almost brand new son Axel. My other sister Elin is trying to keep Ines still for a second. I don't know what has happened with Nick's "american smile", it's like he can't commit 100% so he makes fun of his smile instead? The "american smile" is generally wide, bright and full of hope and belief. It is a known concept in sweden, where we generally don't smile on photos because we don't want to brag about maybe having fun, so we get jealous of americans that can show so much happiness without shame.

 

So yeah, that's all from this year! Maybe we'll update more next?

 

God fortsättning!
