Kesäloma!

In Finland it seems like the whole country has summer off. Well the kids do at least. Kasper and Emi have 4 weeks off kindy to get out and enjoy the loooooooong summer days, this week sunrise is about 4am and sunset is 11pm! So despite a few quiet days inside getting over a summer cold we've been out doing lots of stuff in the (Finnish) summer weather which finally arrived this week with +25c days. We've been hanging in the park, forest picnics, swimming, farm parks, medieval markets and lots of bike riding.....and they've still got 3 more weeks to hang with aunty Tuula and Nana and Pabba when Daddy goes back to school!


Kasper looking very unsure about hanging with Juha the Seppä. He's one of the Dads from kindy...but he generally doesn't look like this playing in the park.
 

Emi asked for a pink diamond from Daddy....how could you say no to that face?


Fruit disguised as candy....didn't fool Emi she just licked the nonpareils off and gave the apple to K.
