And now it's finally time! His skateboard can be used all over the place and not just in tiny areas, which happened to be free of snow and sand during winter.
Emil has been skating indoors this winter, but being outside is something special. He is so dedicated to this hobby of his, and we admire him for the time and energy he puts in working on his skills. Always training on a new trick and new moves.
So I think that it's up to us to support him in his heartfelt sport. We often go to bigger cities as they have better and much bigger facilities for skaters.
This photo - which I picniked and turned into the 60ties style - is from a skatespot we went to last week. We wanted to take some fine photos to use on Emil's invitations for when he is going to be confirmed. I like this one and several others, but as I'm not the skater expert, I will leave it up to Emil to decide which photos to use...
What a cool photo! You must be very proud of your sweet (if I am allowed to say this to a young man) son!

Sejt billede !
ReplyDeleteHärligt!
ReplyDeleteFantastisk opvisning de unge mennesker gav i går eftermiddags.....de er godt nok seje......Simon sagde inden vi gik hjemmefra "bare Emil kommer". De små var helt målløse over deres flotte tricks.....og efter lidt tid var der flere der tog mod til sig og forsøgte sig ud i at køre op ad de mindste skater ramper...endda et par af de voksne måtte prøve :0)
ReplyDeleteVi syntes alle sammen Emil er utrolig sej og virklig ihærdig i sin skaten....respekt for det og godt han har nogle forældre som jer der bakker ham op :0)
Knus......håber det går lidt bedre med ryggen igen :0)
Hi Nina. :))
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your sweet words. :)) I am proud of Emil indeed. Must of all because of the person he is. :)) But I'm proud of his skating skills as well. He works so hard on it and loves it.
I hope that you are doing fine and that your sweet children are loving that spring is on it's way. :))
I sure miss your words here and on your blog, but I hope that you might return to blogging one day. And I totally respect that you have chosen to leave it. :))
Take care,
Ulla xxx

Tusind tak, Miri. :)) Jeg synes også at det her er ét af de gode.
Det er ret sjovt for hvis kameraet var blevet vendt lidt mod højre, så kunne vi se den lange række af små 1. klasses drenge som sad og så på Emil mens han kørte. (Ramperne ligger ved en skole). De var simpelthen så søde og kom med den ene beundrende kommentar efter den anden. Og da de fik at vide at han hed Emil, så poppede der 2 gutter op mens de råbte. "det hedder vi også!" Hyggeligt. :))
En dejlig dag til dig, Miri. :))
..........
Mange tak, Anna. :)) Det er så dejligt for Emil at han nu kan køre overalt igen. Hvis ikke han skater mindst et par timer hver dag, så synes han godt nok det er træls. ;))
Nu mangler vi bare at udvælge billeder til konfimations invitationen. Jeg er spændt på at se hvordan det hele ender med at se ud. :))
Hav det godt, Anna. Jeg tror endda vi får en solskinsdag. :))
............
Det er jeg rigtig glad for at i synes, Dorthe. 1000 tak :)))
Jeg ville ønske at jeg kunne have været med ude for at se skaterne. Christian sagde at det var så hyggeligt med alle aktiviteterne.
Det er så sødt at Simon håbede på at Emil kom. Han var ellers lidt betænkelig ved at "optræde". Men han var meget begejstret da han kom hjem.
Det går stadig ikke helt godt med kroppen. Tænk at sådan en tur til København gør så meget...det ærger mig vanvittigt. Tænk hvis jeg kunne have kørt på rulleskøjter på sådan en smuk forårsdag!
Hav nu en dejlig tirsdag, Dorthe og hils de andre.
Knus
Ulla
Vilket härligt blogginlägg. Jag gillar också att snön börjar försvinna.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful photo...the first time I found your blog, you were writing about Emil and the new skateboard he had just gotten for his birthday. He looks really good, and it is so important to be proud of them, whatever their chosen hobby is...my children are just starting to take to form interests of their own, it is wonderful to see.
ReplyDeleteI miss Nina too!
i think it is great that he has this as a hobby. he is outside all the time, it can be social and it is a sport! what more could you ask for ;-) (much better than sitting on the computer all day log, thats for sure!!)
ReplyDeleteTusind tak, Bodil. :))
ReplyDeleteJeg synes bare at det er sådan en dejlig forårsbebuder når Emil rigtig kan begynde at skate igen. :))
Jeg kan godt forstå at du glæder dig til sneen forsvinder. Nu trænger vi til at se andre farver i naturen.
Rigtig god onsdag. :))
...............
Once more I have to write about Emil and his skating, Millie. ;)) It's a great part of our life and just ask me about something skate-y! I know the answer! ;))
How funny that he was the first thing you met when you started reading my blog. I'm so glad that you did start. :))
I remember the time when children start to figure out what they like to do. It's so amazing.
It will be funny to know what your children choose sometime in the future...
She's hard to be without that Nina - such a sweet and caring person. Let's hope that she returns in blogland one day.
Have a lovely Wednesday. :))

You are so right, Cat. :)) It's so important to be physically active.
Emil skates for several hours every day and loves being outside.
He's also very fond of gymnasthics (trampoline and that kind of stuff).
Sitting behind the computer is a part of his sparetime as well - I'm glad that he has other interests besides that. ;))
Have a lovely day. :))
