<\/a>The new playground at Anna's old school. It's funny how it evolved from 'all natural materials' to 'very standard playground' because of budget constraints and safety standards. But it looks good! \ud83d\ude42<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/a>One exhausted Anna. Hardly a day has gone by for two weeks where she hasn't had a playdate with an old friend! At almost all other times she's been with Sarah.<\/p><\/div>\n
<\/a>The Heap of Stuff. It took a while, but in the end it all got packed. And yes, they're bringing back trashbags from CostCo. They're just so good! \ud83d\ude42<\/p><\/div>\n

Finnur and Anna departed California today, and started their long journey back to Iceland. \u00a0They should arrive very early tomorrow morning. \u00a0The last few days in California have apparently been hectic, filled with lots of fun meet-ups with old friends. \u00a0It sounds a lot like when we used to travel to Iceland, except that Finnur’sRead more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3754","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","post-container col-md-12"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hrefna.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3754","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hrefna.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hrefna.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hrefna.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hrefna.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3754"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/hrefna.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3754\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3763,"href":"https:\/\/hrefna.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3754\/revisions\/3763"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hrefna.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3754"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hrefna.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3754"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hrefna.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3754"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
