view from nappy mountain: Holidays!
http://nappymountain.blogspot.com/2012/07/holidays.html
View from nappy mountain. All you need is cake. It's holiday time, yay! I have a month off, which is fabulous. There's so much we want to fit in, it will be a miracle if we manage everything. On Saturday we spent the whole day there, eating takeaway pizza for lunch, and launching The Enormous Walrus, M's new boat. She took to rowing pretty quickly (luckily we have a rope attached, so she can't zoom off across the lake.). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. I like this lot. The m...

View from nappy mountain. All you need is cake. Sundays are quite busy in our house. Yesterday, we skated at the ice hall, ate buns at the ABC caf, then headed off into the wilds of Noljakka for some skiing and potkukelkka-ing. When we got to the end, the brown ninja decided to throw herself down the massive mound of snow you can see here. She knows no fear at the moment. Links to this post.

View from nappy mountain. All you need is cake. It's been a busy week. We went skiing at Lykynlampi on Sunday in the sunshine. M's skating school had their end of term performance on Monday (the tinies were hilarious). The bigger ones, especially the formation skaters, were just amazing. Here's M's class in the middle of their routine. On Wednesday, I made Easter decorations with the Martat ladies. We covered eggs in paper and fabric, and us (and some of the table in my case) in glue. Links to this post.

View from nappy mountain. All you need is cake. Yes, that'll be the 16cm of snow which landed in my back garden last night then. Apparently Finnish school is brilliant because you can go and play king of the castle on the enormous snow heaps thrown up by the snowplough, and the school actually has a box of sledges you can get out at playtime. There may also have been meatballs today, which just added to the excitement. Links to this post. A weekend in Finland. Friday: Rustle makes some new friends:.

View from nappy mountain. All you need is cake. Here's M (at 1:13-1:15) helping 6,000 other elementary schoolkids in Joensuu celebrate the beginning of summer on the 1st of June. They sang some lovely Finnish songs (including our favourite, Terve, to the tune of YMCA.), backed by a military band. The sun shone, and everyone clapped along. Fab.

View from nappy mountain. All you need is cake. June, part 2. The rest of June disappeared into a fog of work, but we did find time for a few other things:. There was much high speed barging of rally cars (and lots of bits falling off, including rather worryingly a wheel at one point, which careered down the track, bounced through and over a crowd of spectators, and landed on some poor person's car in the car park. Here's a driver's eye view: http:/ www.youtube.com/watch? Links to this post. June, part 1.

View from nappy mountain. All you need is cake. A Finnish mother's day. It started with breakfast in bed (yoghurt, banana and toasted bagels), and was followed by an expedition to Outokumpo to the nature park:. We had a picnic in the sunshine (soup and karjalan piirakka). It was a bit chilly, which is why we still have our winter hats on. And at the top:. After that, we headed home in the sunshine for a barbecue in our garden. A perfect day. Links to this post. Once you get to the edge of the nature rese...

View from nappy mountain. All you need is cake. June, part 1. So far this month, we have:. 2 Created a mökki for Captain Jack (as you can see, he's got a rather nifty sleeping bunk, a sofa (with stripy cover), a chair, and a boat (doubling here as a table, with his saucepan and plate on top). He also has a fishing rod. Maybe a grilli next? 3 We've also gone swimming (in the pool - the lake is too chilly yet to do more than paddle! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
