Home sweet Home

thought i would dedicate some time to chronicle the places where we've lived. i'll leave out for now the apartments we've lived in, since they never really felt like a home, they were just a place to live.


i'll dig those up and post another day, since there are so many pics of the kids when they were younger in those.





for now, i'll limit myself to our 2 houses. places where we made a home. our first was in skälby, västerås. a bit on the edge of västerås, but still within 30 minutes biking distance of downtown. a lovely little half country area with lots of children's families and kind people who seemed to enjoy where they lived and respected it.





here's how we first saw our house, a duplex that didn't really feel like a duplex:








































and what would be a pic of sweden without a winter scene?
































really mild winter we had last year. year before we had massive snow and it really piled up. but since i couldn't find any of those pics easy enough, you got this one...lol. i expect much greater things now that we're up here in the north...i LOVE winter and LOVE snow...!!!




how about some pics of how it looked inside our 1st home? that's easy, i'll just take the pics from when we cleaned and styled it for the sale:

































beautiful...but it hardly looked like that most times, for the sale we cleared out all personal items so the buyers wouldn't be influenced but our "junk". lol, good thing they didn't look inside the storage shed, i had crammed all those things in there.

this is soon becoming a longer post than i intended. though it consists mainly of pics and less text than my other long-winded testimonials...and i've only covered the first house. i was gonna do the house that inspired us to move up north and then our new house. maybe i should do another post with just those..? yes, i think i'll do just that! cya in a bit!
