the Last Quiet Weekend



8,5 weeks left. The count down is a fact, with excitement, fear and sadness. In ten weeks time we will be sitting in our apartment in Stockholm feeling like our ex-pat years in SA never happened. At least we will have summer, this morning it was really cold when I took Elle to school. At the same time, we miss our family and friends in Sweden terribly and I'm excited about starting to work again. We have decided to get a kitten for Elle, renovate our kitchen and buy a new car. I'm also thrilled about the thought of strollingaround the city, I've really, really missed the city, there's definitely something special about Stockholm.

This weekend we busied ourselves with a little bit of cleaning up and sorting out our cupboards and closets. It's amazing how much stuff you manage to get in two years time. We didn't have any engagements this Saturday nor Sunday which was great. Elle was a bit bored, we needed to entertain her as well. The last weekends have been filled birthday parties or dinners with friends. The coming 5 weekends we will be busy entertaining friends, it's going to be a lot of saying goodbye. Shame, leaving such dear friends...

We move out in the end of June and will spend the last 2 weeks in a guest house. To our friends we just want to hint that we gladly will accept dinner invitations! :)

We took some pictures at the last b-day party Elle went to. Here are her best friends from school!

Elle, Mikal and Gemma. Mpho is missing
