Kiitokset vielä kuluneesta blogivuodesta 2017. Tältä se näytti kuvina, mutta sen tekivät osaltaan myös teidän kommenttinne…
This is what 2017 looked like on the blog…
Thank you for being here last year and today!
Oikein ihanaa viikonloppua! Omani menee lomailujen jälkeen työ touhussa, mutta aina ehtii onneksi hetken myös viettää perheen kanssa. Ja tänään pääsen myös kuuntelemaan Straussia, ihanaa!

I love brunch!
by Sofia - in Random
We had a family brunch in our house on Boxing Day. It was such a great idea. This year we did Christmas eve at my brother´s home and everyone had a family dinner in their own homes on Christmas Day. Our girls got to choose the menu for that. We went ice-skating before that, took lovely hot baths and had our fancy dinner in our new pyjamas. It was so much fun. We set the table all nice and cooked together and then basically ate steak, fries & champagne and ice-cream Sundays for dessert in pj´s. It was one of our best dinners and definitely a winner concept for a future family celebratory dinner. It was nice to have a night off between the extended family celebrations.
Brunch is my favourite meal to cook. I love breakfast and lunch foods. We did do a fancy take on it and lit up all our candles and had a fire going in the fireplace. We ate in the living room enjoying the fire. We played board games and listened to classic Christmas music. Here are some photos from the brunch…

Today is the day in our house when we clear out the Christmas tree and the rest and bring in the crispy white tulips. It is the day where we still linger on our holiday moods and enjoy time together with the girls but feel our selves moving towards the new year that just started.
Did you make some good resolutions? Did you set up goals for yourself? I´m hoping to read more books this year than I did last year. And I finally got round to buying myself materials for my first cross stitch pattern I want to try out. I have never been very good at sewing but always wanted to try it out. I will also keep up some good habits like arranging things with friends and date nights with my husband. Even if we set up one night a month for friends and one night for our relationship it really truly pays off. It sound like a little and usually you do get more time together than that but it is important to keep up with at least that. I love work and I love the everyday life but as I have said for me it is important to see these exciting things waiting for me in my day planner. I love the idea of looking forward to lovely times spent with my loved ones. It makes me happy!
