Country Life Part 1

Living with 3 (blood-related) families on the country in Sweden makes life different from the average family life. Yes it is true that there is a lot of noise, and yes it is absolutely true that life isn´t always as romantic as it may look on the pictures!! But one thing is sure, the choice we made to share each others tears and laughs for good or for bad, till... life us do part. Enjoy these faces which I get to see almost every single day!

 And of course we still kept our Dutch flag somewhere in our garage ;) You need to know where you came from in order to know where you are heading, right?

Country Living

I love sunday afternoons. They make me feel warm and excited on the very inside. I think I cherish them so much ,because after a week with all it´s ups and downs, and before a week with unknown surprises I always find myself back in a place surrounded with loved ones. Especially a sunday afternoon makes you want to hang on to the moments a little longer, before you rush yourself into the daily rhythm of life's obligations.

My dad is usually the one bringing up the most simple but unlikely things to do. I learned from him to always explore every place and just go after every sign you see. So yesterday, there was a sign beside the way: Tractors, now and then. And of course immediately the car made a swing to the left. And this time once again, the surprisingly beautifully surrounding did yet funny, not surprise me. Because from experience, every time my dad takes a pioneers step, it makes my world bigger than it is.

My son is very much into every thing that has wheels! We ended up in a little farm village, with a big field with tons of tractors. I am so fortunate to have learned to enjoy the simplest things in life. Standing in the dirt with my green boots on, photographing...
