Noah's party...

Last Sunday Noah celebrated his third birthday and invited us for some beers and tacos in the park outside the apartment where he stays with his parents and little sister. We had a great time and I think he had to with all the new toys:-)



Thanks!

BTW...don't miss the new Gallery under "Photos" in the menu on the left. Some new public albums there.

Baby Shower...sort of

Last weekend we invited friends and family over for a lunch "Indonesian Style" / baby shower. A real baby shower would be a girls only event but we decided to break with the "tradition" and have the guys over for some beer and Maiko's "strong lemonade":-)



Thanks everyone for all the nice gifts! I think we have all the stuff now...just waiting for Astrid:-)

Miss Piggy Tour...

For a little more than 3 weeks in June - July we had the pleasure of having my sister and her family with us here in California. I think it was a welcome break from the rainy weather back home in Sweden;-)

The Miss Piggy Tour lasted for 6 days and took us 2000 miles via Yosemite, Death Valley, Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Los Angeles and back to Palo Alto and there is of course story to tell...

Last year Eva found out that Göran has family in Palo Alto (it's a small world). We of course visited "Lindy" (Barbara) who lives about a mile from us. At her house we saw Miss Piggy and Lindy told us that she is being passed around like a hot potato in her family since many years. Whenever you had visitors, Miss Piggy might be hiding somewhere..."left behind";-) We asked if we could take Miss Piggy with us on our roadtrip. We just might stop by Lindy's daughter in Santa Barbara...

There are of course more pictures from their vacation. Look under Photos > 2007 > Summer in the menu on the left.

Enjoy!

There is this set of photos from when we drove to Napa the first weekend when Eva, Göran, Elin and Julia was here.



...and if you click on Photos > 2007 in the menu on the left you'll find some more photos from what we have been doing since my sister and her family arrived almost 2 weeks ago.

Midsummer in Palo Alto

The Swedish colony in Palo Alto gathered once again for a traditional Swedish Midsummer:-)



Thanks to the Ottosson's for hosting and everyone for the potluck food & drinks:-) I think I had to much of either köttbullar, prinskorvar or snaps...which ever it is that makes you tired the day after;-)

Aku Cinta Indonesia Fair

I don't know what that means. I probably should, anyway, it was in Golden Gate Park, the weather was nice and there was plenty of Indonesian FOOD to choose from:-) Yummy!

We meet up with Inu, Tutut and Yana for a lunch in the park. Check out the of photos from the event...hmm...looks mostly like Yana;-)

If you're fluent in Indonesian this blog has more info.
