Happy new year

I would like to wish all my readers a happy new year with some photos from Christmas :-)

This picture was taken on Christmas morning from our house, just the perfect white Christmas !

The playhouse was also decorated for Christmas !

I made this wreath some years ago !

Our Christmas tree this Christmas.

I just love this candle.  It´s from this place and is called My stuff.  This is from her Christmas collection.

 

The reindeers are so cute !!

I just love my Kimmidoll :-)

And here are my girls at Christmas !!

I hope you all like my little posts here on my blog and I would really appreciate some comments ;-)

Ég sé líka að það eru margir að kíkja á síðuna mína frá Íslandi, það væri gaman að heyra í ykkur !

My Christmas ornaments

I really love my Christmas ornaments.  My ornaments are really special to me and I have collected every item over the years.  Every Christmas I try to buy something special and uniqe and when I travel I always try to buy something that I really like from that country.  When I decorate the tree I just love to open all the little boxes and look at the beautiful things that have been in the storage for 11 months.

So I just wanted to show you some of my special ornaments:-)

I have a quite a few birds on the tree and this one is a gift from my friend last year and is called Princess Diana......because my friend Diana gave it to me !

This is the newest member of the tree, a little bird I bought today ;-)

...and some more birds

And then we have some reindeers....

We have two daughters that are adopted from China so our Christmas ornaments from our two trips to China are very special to us.

...and our beautiful Christmas ball from Unicef, showing all the children of the world

´

I´m very fond of our first Christmas ornaments.  I bought it in Austria when we were traveling

there in 1999.

We also have two little frames that have pictures of our daughters first Christmas with us :-)

And here are some random, beautiful things I´ve collected.

...and at last one of my favorite item I bought in Florida in 2010 in

the special store, Anthrophology.

Merry Christmas to all of my readers, where ever you are from or who ever you are :-)

Winter birds

In our house we feed the birds when it´s cold....and it´s like always ;-)
New kit from Createwingsdesigns called Feathered Friends.

Welcome winter

Well, I think the winter is here.....at least here in Iceland, it was pretty cold today....brrrrrr.
This is the time of year that I love.....because this is the time when all the new winter kits arrive !  I just love to scrap winter layouts and I made one today from my new winter kits, Welcome winter by Emeto designs, Snowflake dance by Jofia designs and Snowflake dance by Lily designs.  Three awsome designers !!

And here is my page:

I did it.....I scrapped.....my first page since May !!!  I hope something more follows :-)

New photos

I took my girls to a professional photographer last week and I´m soooooo happy !  The photographer María Katrín  came over to our house and took the pictures in our garden and in the surroundings of our house.  Very natural and artistic photos.

 Here are some photos from the photoshoot !

Finally finished

We finally finished the playhouse this week, painted the fence and finished some little details.
