A lovely Christmas Eve spent with Family..
and I think everyone felt they had been nice this year too..
Rested a few days ..and then Petra and her boyfriend Jimmy came...
( no rest..lol)
and then it was time for the BIG Wii- Contest ...
New games that Viktor had in Santas sack...
Wii Party and Slap shot was played to everyones amusement!
A few more into the games than others..lol...
Then one evening..something "exciting" happened...
lots of noices...like an engine... and lights all over the farm house...
(And I mean this.. my Mum and Dad lives out in the nowhere..
no lights at all.. no other houses... just alone...
so the light show and the sounds were a bit odd...:o)
we all rushed out in -25C (-13F) no outer clothing ... and gosh..
a helicopter was hoovering all over the place...
-what I thought.. bankrobbers... the police... ???
(too many movies I think...;o)
But a helicopter it was.. and it emergency landed right there on the farm..
big eyes from Viktor!!!
So out in the cold with camera!!! ;o)
and more photos in the morning..:o))
This is the talk of this years Christmas... :o)
Had one day out.. otherwise we were mostly inside...
by the fire and played games and just had
a very nice time with family!!!
So nice to catch up with oldest daughter a bit...
today she is traveling back to the south of Sweden again... :o(
*...New Year...*
spent with my brothers family ..until we had to go home ..
a little calf was to be born... so the cow needed to be looked for.
We melted tin this year too...
and prophesied how the new year would be...
A bit of fun..
I always gets boats...
