He also got a few presents, the Wii game Super Mario Kart was a favorite that got tested by almost the whole family today, the same with the yo-yo….old talents came forward. Sara and morfar Sven-Olof (Carinas dad) have joined us this weekend. Last weekend Jesper got an early birthday present, a new bike.
One of the local commercial-chains had invited the Swedish Idol winner Erik Grönwall and another very popular artist Ola Svensson to perform at the store. Since we did not have anything else planned we went there. The kids liked it, they have not really met any of the idols before. The each got a poster that Eric signed for them.
For dinner we made wood-fire-oven baked pizzas, in the oven we build behind our house. Mark designed the oven, and we had it build a couple years ago but it was not until this week that we have had time to fire it up long enough to actually use it for baking. Everybody made their own pizzas and they turned out great. Mark made a favorite that we used to eat at Penn State, a pizza with fresh tomatoes, mozzarella and pesto.
We had a nice summer day today so when we had stuffed ourselves with pizzas we all hung out in the sun, sitting in the swing talking and taking turns trying out the yo-yo.
We ended the day as we started it, with strawberry cake.
It is not very often that we have a day with no time to meet, it has been great and very relaxing.
Tomorrow Jesper will play a game of soccer.
Hope you also are having a great weekend.
