Filling in the November 2015 Hole
[Photos from 1 to 26 (!!!) November 2015, posted online on 16 March 2016. This is what guilt looks like!]
This past autumn somehow, slowly but surely, crushed me.
By the time the kids were taken care of by 9 pm, I was totally done for, and blogging (which I enjoy, darnit!) rarely happened. Documenting our busy summer months took half of forever, so when I looked back over the year in January, I discovered I’d posted ZERO things from November. That hasn’t happened in years…
Since November (and the autumn in general) still taunts me, I’m going to try and give it a little love. I hope you bear with me! (42 images total)

Airport, Dinner, Art (FFF-style), and Kids
[Photos from 01 to 05 October 2015, posted online 26 March 2016. Yup, that’s the wrong year.]
My digging into the photo-vaults continues. This time it’s October 2015.
This post has me driving my mom to the airport, us visiting friends for dinner, me going downtown to look at some art and hanging out at a new cafe, and the kids being cute. (27 images total)

Tina & Justin: The Golden Circle
[Photos from 16 AUGUST 2015, posted on 3 November 2015. That’s bewildering!]
The initial plan for day two of Tina and Justin’s stay in Iceland, was for all of us to go visit the Golden Circle (Þingvellir, Gullfoss, Geysir), in two cars. Then we realized our lovely electric car would never make it there and back again on one charge, so the plan changed to me and Anna taking Tina and Justin on a road trip, while Finnur oversaw the little ones.
Off we went! (48 images total)
Stop #1: Thingvellir. This outlook post is new-ish, I’d at least never gone there, although I’d seen people standing on it from afar.
Tina and Justin Visit Iceland
[Photos from 15 AUGUST 2015, put online 1 November 2015. Half the way through August, finally!!]
Our good friend, Tina, and her son, Justin, came to stay with us for a few days. They landed on Saturday, hung out with us that weekend, then took Anna on a trip along the south coast of Iceland for a couple of days, before spending a somewhat quiet Wednesday in the city, and then they left early Thursday morning.
We kept the Saturday fairly low key, except we went to the Museum of Old Houses (Árbæjarsafn) and then hung out in a swimming pool (Lágafellslaug). (8 images total)
The gang, minus me.
