The girls are *very* excited Sveinn frændi is in town.

Waiting in line for some snuggle time.

Some pictures from Bjossi's phone

Some serious lounging.

Inga loves snuggling with Amma.

Counting down the final minute of the game when Iceland beat England. 

Saturday afternoon waffles.

Celebrating Iceland's goal against Hungary.

Play date costumes. Rosie wanted to bring the Hello Kitty mask home. 

I think they were trying to help Namrata fly, like Superman. A for effort. 

Working at the carwash...

Hanging out on the 17th of June, Icelandic Independence Day.

A picnic with Elinor.

Mary: "Mama, we're doing real gardening." I tried to tell the girls they shouldn't waste their time on our jungle of a yard, but they wouldn't be deterred. 

Mary's last day of first grade.

It looks like Rosie fell asleep "reading."

Mary opened a savings account and she got a big bag of goodies from the bank.

There was no shortage of cakes on Bjossi's birthday.

Baby Inga was sound asleep by the end of the party.

"Mama, would you like some nice, fresh gum?"

Rosie was excited for the dentist. A big improvement over last time, when she had to sit on my lap. Mary had an appointment also, but she's such a pro I forgot to take a picture!

Legos with Sonja.

Sonja and Nina slept over and ended up falling asleep in the same bed.

Mary slept in Rosie's bed and Rosie was in the bigger bed. 

Hanging out at Þingvallavatn.

The girls took advantage of trampoline access at the neighbourhood bbq.

First grade picnic

Hot dogs all around.

Sister sock swap.

Mary's gymnastics show

Dancing to "Achy breaky heart."

And here's a video of Mary's performance.
