garden
Summer in Sweden 2019
Sometimes it takes me a bit of time to truly be on vacation… why is that? Maybe I hold too much of where I just left to open myself to the new place… It’s the best when you feel settled… sleeping is normal again and you feel so relaxed. While away you start to remember … Read more
blueberry picking…
Julien’s first family outing was something to remember… we went blueberry picking. What a fun adventure. It was just perfect. We set out one morning out east to a little farm. It was so quiet and still… peaceful! You could hear the bees buzzing… the breeze wooshing the trees. My parents met us out there … Read more

This garden… this is where we will be staying for our time in Sweden… I get to live in a fairytale garden for 4 weeks… There are peonies exploding every morning… bigger than my hands!

Spring Visitors…

We could sit in our driveway for hours re-sopping up bubbles and twirling around… saying good-bye to a little tooth… this little girl has a sensitive heart… a fun day with Cecilia’s class… we made bird feeders to compliment their sweet little eco garden!

berry patch days…
For me childhood is about being outside freedom and in the fresh air… childhood is about grass stains and berry juice dripping from your elbows. Today is Earth Day and I thought why not write about nature, fresh air and heck, some strawberries! A few weeks back we met some sweet friends at a nearby … Read more
Winter fun in the garden…
The girls could seriously putz around in the garden all day and every day… Last night they were in their night gowns re-planting seeds because they just harvested their fennel and there was room. It was 8pm! It’s hard to drag them in to bed when they are so happy and up to their elbows … Read more
