Copenhagen Zoo


We went to the zoo a few weeks ago. The Copenhagen Zoo is such a beautiful zoo.Me, Olivia and Graham had a really nice time! There were so many animals and fun things to look at. I am confident that the favorite animals of both Olivia and Graham were the hippos. We stood in front of that tank for at least a half hour Both kids were fascinated bu them!

We had great fun and will go back and again soon with Matthew this time.

Anna comes!

Anna and Harrison

Anna and Harrison came to Copenhagen on March 22. I was so happy to see them! Olivia's birthday was March 20 but I held off on having her birthday party until Anna was here so that she could meet some of my friends and enjoy the party too. Anna helped me so much with the party- it was great! For the first few days we did party stuff and church and walked around Nørrebro and the awesome church in my neighborhood. Then we got downtown and started seeing the really good stuff. We went to castles on the boat tour and to museums and just walking all over Copenhagen talking and having a good time. We also spend a day with my friend, Lene, who lives right by the main train station. Anna stayed for just under two weeks. We also went to Sweden to stay overnight with Lars and Ulrika.

We had such a good time with Anna and were sad to see her go! Harrison was so sweet and so small and we loved to have him here too! Until next time!

Easter

Easter Sunday.
This is what my apartment looks like when we are getting ready for church. It is a disaster zone. Olivia is wearing my shoes.

These are pictures of us in our back garden. Matthew- The Easter Bunny- went down ahead of us and hid candy for Olivia.












Back at the apartment the candy eating began.

(The apartment still a disaster from the getting-ready-for-church scramble)
