Direct Contrast

WOW! What a contrast to the weekend that we just had. This morning we woke up to over 6 inches of winter wonderland. We had no idea that this was coming. Samuel was very excited about the snow and continued to scream for about 5 minutes that there was snow outside. Then for the next 45 minutes he proceeded to tell me exactly what he was planning to do in the snow when we went outside . Sweden has been unusually warm this winter, so we have received rain and not snow. This is what the Swedish winter should look like (but don't tell my mother-in-law). It looks like it may stick for a few days at least.

This is the Sweden that I really like! It is fun to see Samuel's enthusiasm about playing outside in this. He is one of those kids that makes "lemonade". So if anyone wants to join us feel free! Happy St. Patricks Day.




This is Johannes's. It belongs to Andreas's grandparents and is about 100 yards away from our house. Unfortunately his grandparents no longer live there on a permanent basis, but we still go play in the yard and have fun there. I put this picture up for Heidi Spencer. She loved this house when they came in the summer of 2002. Thought you might like to see it in snow.
