Even more snow!













Last wednesday we had a christmas celebration at Nils's school. He was all excited about it and he was allowed to lite up a candle during it. Cramped in the small classroom we watched and listened. Lots of biblical things like church songs but we don't mind, better to have them growing up in a small town then in the big city..
Yesterday we saw a coach and horses in the street. Lisette remembered that they were going to perform a opening ceremony for our renewed street. remember the extension we had build one year ago? And at the same time the council decided to renew our street, so we ended up in one big building pit. Today the council officially opened our renewed street, something that wasn't done since the street was layed out in 1949. Nils and Wende were allowed (together with other kids in the street) to ride the coach and they loved. Whe they came back they were all given presents by the Santa Claus that was there as well.
Today (sunday) we were woken up bu the kids (as usual) but then we looked out of the window and saw itwas snowing again and by the looks if it, it had been snowing for quite a while too! It didn't stop until about 1 o'clock in the afrternoon but that was just a short break for after an hour it started to snow again.. I guess we did not have so much snow in 10 years or so. (maybe even longer) So we went out in our snowgear after we brushed the dust off it colected after all this snowless time and took the led and went for it. We went to the park were we slid down a hill onto the ice. Wende loves the thrill of sliding down the slope. A real daredevil (until she falls and ends up with a face full of snow..)
