Always be prepared for Rain

Yesteray, marked the maiden voyage of the Bubb's new van (more on that later). We went to the seaside a few hours away from our house in a place called Holkham. The tide was out and it was a bit stormy, but the kids still had a great time. Thorunn cried quite a bit at first, but was converted in the end.

Bad Hair Day

"She does look kinda stupid. I don't know what we were thinking!"

I got a new haircut on Saturday, which I do not like. I know what you are thinking -- it's not that bad.

Oh! Wait ... Why so short on one side and so long on the other? All I can say, is it seemed like a good idea until I saw it on me. My question is this -- should I just wait it out and let it grow? Or, should I go back and get a more even crop?


Moths and Butterflies Do Not Come out in the Rain

In an attempt to find wholesome summer activities, Ulysses, Bronwyn and I went to the Moth and Butterflies day at this historic house, called Ickworth House. Unfortunately, my vision of a nature walk and learning about the different species of butterflies native to England was not to be. Instead, we made butterfly-related crafts on soggy tables in between rainstorms. At least we tried?

"Hello there Mommy. I'm Thorunn. I likey walking.


"I big girl. I walking."

"I'm FAST."
