The Rest of August

Anna and Emma at the Subway stop leading out of the city. Our destination: the summer house in Laugarvatn with some friends.
Nökkvi, Jóhanna & Kids Spend the Day
[Photos from 28 July 2015, put online 09 September 2015. Storm #2 arriving tonight!]
We finally got around to hosting Nökkvi and Jóhanna and their kiddos for a hot tubbing day! It was a surprisingly good day weather-wise, so Finnur also got in touch with his inner stainer, and stained some of the fences in front of the house. (14 images total)
Sunbrella time!
Ríkey & Co visit and Finnur’s 40th (+363 days) Birthday Bash
[Photos from 27 July 2015, put online 08 September 2015. Yet another storm hitting.]
Monday was a busy day. My cousin Ríkey and her gang came for a day-long visit, which included american pancakes, and hot tubbing, of course.
In the evening, we handed the kids over to my brother Bjarni, while we took Finnur’s immediate family out for dinner to celebrate his 40th birthday, two days before he would turn 41 years old. Better late than never?! (16 images total)
Pancakes about to be gobbled up. Palli was a little late to join us, and Bjarki was too hungry to be photographed! Also, we TOTALLY failed at photographing the cousins playing. Tsk, tsk!
The Wedding of Nökkvi and Jóhanna
My oldest brother, Nökkvi, and Jóhanna, his spouse of about five years and mother of his two children, got married today! 🙂 It was a lovely day, warm-ish and sunny, and I had the pleasure of taking photos for the event. UPDATE 14 June 2012: There are now two Google+ albums with photos from thatRead more
Spring?
These lethargic pictures from last week are making me lethargic just looking at them so here is some happier fare! Bjarki finally went to daycare today after finally having a full fever-free day yesterday, after five days of fever-episodes. What is it with our kids and waking up with little to no fever, only toRead more
A Lethargic Week
This past week, all of us but Finnur have fallen ill. Anna took the first shift, waking up warm on Monday, and then spending ALL of Tuesday sleeping (‘Can I go on the computer?’, ‘Yes’, ‘zzzzzz….’) before being mostly herself again on Wednesday. As she was getting better, I succumbed, and spent Wednesday afternoon untilRead more
Small Family Get-Together
We summoned my mother, brothers, spouses and kids over for ‘coffee’ one leisurely Sunday afternoon. I made American Pancakes. They came out yummy! 🙂Read more
Photos From Today
I am happy to report that December 2011 has been officially dealt with, blog-wise anyway. To make up for the lack of recent photos, here are a few from today, where Bjarki and I took turns using the camera.
This here is my side-ways smirk.
A cheerful Bjarki.
New Year’s Sushi
Steinunn and Einar are sushi-masters. We somehow convinced them to come over to our place to practice their magic on New Years Day. It was yummy!! 🙂
Busy bees in the kitchen.
