Of he went afterwards - the birthdayboy - to work untill eight o'clock in the evening. And then it was time to celebrate him some more.....Christian's parents and my parents came for birthdaybuns and - cake.
Eventhough it was Christian who was the one to recieve birthpresents, I got some wonderful things too. My parents are so good at giving flowers to my sister and I, and yesterday was no exception......
Christian's parents gave me "flowers" as well - it just didn't come in the shape of flowers, but as this adoring little fellow. Christian's mother knows how much I love Medusa's figurines.
When everyone had left after a nice and cozy evening, I couldn't help feeling happy and very fortunate.
Only a few weeks ago we were all anxious and sad about my father and father-in-law being in hospital. But nevertheless we were able to be together again laughing, talking and enjoying ourselves.
Isn't that just amazing?
Another amazing thing is our very, very, very old hyacinth in our frontgarden....Do you remember how it looked a while back, when I told the little story about it's age?
This is how it looked this morning.....and I wish you could smell it too. Every time we go in and out our frontdoor the beautiful scent of hyacinth fills the air....
Along with the scent comes the feeling of spring.......
Hvor det bare glæder mig at I var samlet hele familien oven på alt det I har været igennem det sidste stykke tid - det er jer vel undt.
ReplyDeleteAlting vokser og springer ud så hurtigt i år at det næsten ikke er til at følge med :0) Bare det ikke ender med at årstiderne går i ét -for en stor del af charmen ved at bo i Danmark er da bestemt årstidernes skiften.

Hvor dejligt at høre, at din svigerfar har det godt igen. Det må næsten være den bedste fødselsdagsgave din mand kan få.
ReplyDeleteOg heldige dig, der fik Medusa figur. Kan godt forstå at du er vild med dem.
Ved første blik på dine forårsbilleder, så jeg en dræbersnegl - Det viste sig dog bare at være et blad. Pyha - hader de tingester! Tænk at de også forfølger mig i blog-verden....
That sounds like a perfectly wonderful evening. These figurines are just adorable, no wonder, you love them - they really make also my heart sing...!
ReplyDeleteHappy spring!
Åh, 1000 tak Dorte - vi er rigtig heldige....og skal huske på det hver eneste dag :0)
ReplyDeleteDet er simpelthen også min store frygt, at vi bare får én lang, kedelig årstid....bøgen plejer da heller ikke at springe ud så tidligt!
Vi talte lige om, at vi VIL have en fantastisk varm og langstrakt sommer i år!! Som afløses af det skønne efterår....
Hav en dejlig weekend alle 5 :0)
Kærlig hilsen

Det er dejligt at Christians far har det bedre, Gitte - men helt rask bliver han desværre aldrig. Min egen far er også ved at have det bedre....han mangler bare en scanning af hjertet, men det sker heldigvis snart! (så får vi forhåbentlig klarhed over hvad der forårsagede blodproppen i hjernen.)
Jeg blev da også helt paf, og jeg havde ham ikke engang...ham Johannes fra Medusa.
Dræbersnegle er vi - på helt utrolig vis - sluppet for. Og hvis vi nogensinde får dem, så slår jeg til med alle mulige midler. Jeg kan ikke udstå snegle uden sneglehus! ;0)
Rigtig god weekend... :0)

We did have a wonderful time, jaana*maaria....I like being with my family :0)
Medusa makes the most amazing things...I don't think that I ever will get tired of their figurines!
Happy spring to you too :0)
I wish I could smell those pretty flowers! For me, the feeling of spring comes with a not that pleasant smell of what I called "dirty city with melting snow". Even if the smell is not great I still get very excited when it's there!
