By the pool

It might as well have been the last weekend for the summer, you never know in these parts of the world.

If that was the case we at least tried to soak up every last bit of sunbeams that was heading our way this Sunday!
Well at least the kiddo and the future husband.
I stick to the shadows.

Such mother such son!

Bought some huge raspberries last week, couldn't resist taking some snapshots with this lovely treat!

Got them with a nice price as well, that almost never happens in this freakin country!

promise this is the last summer vacation pics. We had a lovely time back in Sweden, and watching these pics makes me smile. Already I want it to be summer again!

we visited this place where everything was in the old days, the people working there wore costumes, there was a lot of animals and woodland, amazing

blueberry picking again

beautiful handmade chimney 

I´m a bit obsessed with sandals, these once I purchased 11 years ago, I wear them every summer. Can you believe that quality!

we had such good luck weather wise, only in the last week we had a bit of  rain, it was still very warm though

mama got brand new shoes

Summer sandals for me is, bohemian, with a vintage look, preferably in a brown to a beige shade.
However I have wanted a pair of fancy once, and have been eyeballing these adorable and pretty little things for a couple of summers now. And when on this summer sales, I could not help myself...

they are from Dune, and very pretty.

blueberry picking and summer houses:

it´s not a very good blueberry year this year, to my sons disappointment. We found a lot of wild strawberries later which gave him hope for the future however

almost mandatory for Swedish summer houses; painted red and white  

fiance on hot tin roof...

our summer house in the woods, located by the prettiest lake

my father in law was a hunter, this is one of his biggest kills, he was very proud of it. And now when it´s already dead I think it´s kind of beautiful and I would love to have it in our feature house some day. A bit morbid I know.

play and other things:

how children's hands should look like in the summer

new rubber boots, autumn here I come

one of the perks of being home; borrowing pretty shoes (bought a pair for myself as well, in colour to match my bicycle Èdith... more on that later).

We did a lot of bathing, my feet will have to represent the bathing and swimming in the ocean, lakes and fjords.
