A Freezing Holiday and language lessons

We are back to London!
Our little holiday to northern Germany was freezing cold but very very nice.
It has been constantly below -10 degrees and I am ready for Spring now.
One week at my Mum's house in the country side, just loads of delicious food and fun times.
It was so good to seeing everyone.
They had a little surprise for us as well, as they have just started an English course, they were so much better in understanding and talking to Dave this time. So cute!
Dave decided to learn German as well, which is great.
I do believe German is not an easy language to learn and I wonder when he will find the time,
at least he has me as a native speaker at home ; )
What about you guys: Are you speaking different languages?
Do you have any recommendations for methods, books/cd's etc.?

I will catch up and tell you about our Berlin trip soon.

Off to Germany + Family time in the cold

Today we are off to northern Germany to visit the family for a week and then for a long weekend to Berlin to visit friends. The temperatures just dropped drastically:
Winter is now really here and my hands and feet constantly cold an numb.
I am still looking forward to this trip. We will be back with photos soon.
Have a great time everyone.

Happy Birthday Brunch to me!

It was my birthday this week.
Happy 28 years old. I am so excited about this year.
We went for delicious dinner at Yum Yum and David got me a beautiful Journal to write down all my thoughts and ideas, dreams and goals.
On Saturday I invited with all our friends at The Happy Kitchen and we had amazing pancake brunch and good coffee.
Thanks to everyone who joined, for all the nice birthday wishes and all the beautiful gifts.
It was an amazing day.

P.S: Thanks to the girls at The Happy Kitchen for my birthday muffin and the good service.

The museum of childhood

Last Sunday we went for a long walk to the Museum of Childhood.
It was wonderful how we got all these memories back as soon as we recognized toys that we owned or the ones that we always wished for.
There were toys from the beginning of times and it was very inspiring.
On our way back we discovered a few new shops with amazing interior.
And now we are back to the future and it's my birthday week.
I just turned 28- time flies. 
I am looking forward to this weekend of celebration.

Happy 2012: here is to a wonderful brand new year

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you had a great start into the new year.

2012 is going to be great and will for sure bring on some exciting changes in our lives.

My little new year resolutions include being colorful.
In general I am trying to be more graceful and grateful.
I will do my best to inspire and support my friends and family.
I hope to make people laugh even more than the year before.
Also I won't being too hard on myself and accept that my best will always be enough.
And we will no longer throw clothes around in our room, which was Davids brilliant idea.

What are you up to this year?
