Happy birthday Lovisa!

The anticipations were high on Saturday morning and I could finally answer "Yes, it's today we're having your birthday party!" when Lovisa asked for the 100th time if it was today her birthday party was going to take place. 2 pm the guests started to arrive and we were so lucky with the weather so we had the party outside. 10 children and 15 adults spent the afternoon together and it was so nice. The children jumped on the trampoline, ate goodies and cake and played while the adults talked, ate and enjoyed the lovely September day.

 Homemade goodies for the adults (OK, OK, I didn't make the chocolate decorations but I did make the muffins and the frosting)...

 And for the children...

After a wonderful day we all slept early and well. Sunday was the true birthday and the celebration continued, we had lunch at a fastfood resto that starts with the letter M... 


This was yet another lovely day so we took off to the king and queen's home "Drottningsholm" and walked around in the huge garden. Lovisa didn't quite understand why we couldn't visit the queen and she thought it was really weird and funny to have a guard outside your home...


The girls were not allowed in...


Beautiful Drottningholm...

But I think we do have to complain to the king about his parking, the high edge in front of the cars destroyed not only our front but many others too... Be aware if you're visiting the king, don't drive to close to this edge!




And today the celebration continued at the daycare, Lovisa brought icecream for everyone and they sang to her and she got to wear a crown... Phew, now I think we celebrated enough - she's really 4 years old!

  2. Thanks Anna! Drottningholm was a nice discovery for me, so close to Brommaplan too!
