what a day.

Sunday was cold, sunny and awesome. First we visited Björn and Elvira in their cute little house, which due to the cold weather had no water - all frozen... but that didnt stop us from having a great time with a lovely walk, lots of play and sausages over the fire.

Elvira with Sally and Boston, all dressing warm according to the weather :)



Two tired staffies at the end of the night...

The evening was finished of with some bowling and drinks home at the Lithuanians.

only food?

You might think all we do is eat because that's what all the photos shows... sadly people that really know us knows that true too :) Here we made homemade pizza - it was delicious! Salami, bacon, pinapple, banana, curry etc That the best thing with making your own - pile on everything that you love!

French toast with bacon, banana and maple syrup. A less healthier dinner option due do the financial crisis, but a pretty yummi one!
Also attempted to make Nana's famous Macaroni Cheese the other day, unfortunately no evidence could be captured before Matt ate it all. So due to my success Matt now renamed my version to Emma's Macaroni Cheese! Not a bad score from a very picky judge.

Rally-lydnad

Wednesday today which means that me and Boston have a playdate together. We have started a dogcourse which is called Rally-lydnad. It is actually a sport that dogs compete in; walk around a course with lots of signs in it. Get the dog to perform what the sign shows and then move on to the next. You get points for every correct move and you have to do it as fast as possible.
I dont know if I'll compete with Boston but its fun to do some training with him :) He really love is it and always has a good night sleep after each training-session.

fire and marshmallows

Something rare happend the last weekend - we saw the sun! Since this happens so rarely at this time of the year we decided it was time for a day in the forest. A fire, lots of marshmallows, hot dogs, hot chocolate and good company was a good cure for an early winter depression. :) Hope there are plenty more of these days to come!


Boston giving out his daily share of kisses.

Matt and Ignas - 2 hungry guys.

Pure love.
