Hver år lejer den Nørgaards et sommerhus og enhver møder til en får dage sammen som en familie. Dette år, mødte vi i Djursland, en område ligger på Øst Jylland. Vi havde mange ting at feje som en familie--Kasper´s først fødselsdag (28 August), Taimi´s fødselsdag (1 Sept) og Frederikke´s Konfirmation. Den var en DEJLIG WEEKEND og jeg indså igen hvor taknemmelig jeg er at have en familie ligesom denne her i Danmark når min eje familie er mange miles væk. Før flyttede jeg, lovede Taimi min mor den familie skal passe mig i Danmark, og de er!
Every year the Nørgaards rent a summerhouse and everyone meets for a few days together as a family. This year we met in Djursland, a region located in East Jutland. We had many things to celebrate as a family--Kasper´s first birthday (Aug 28), Taimi´s birthday (Sept 1) and Frederikke´s confirmation. It was a DELIGHTFUL WEEKEND and I realized again how thankful I am to have a family like this here in Denmark when my own family is so many miles away. Before I moved, Taimi promised my mom the family would take care of me in Denmark, and they are!
Vores 3 dage sammen var så utrolig sjov---med god mad, meget latter, eventyr omkring Djursland og familie kamper! (og, selvfølgelig, min hjerne arbejder overtid for at forstår dansk!)
Our three days together were so incredibly fun---with good food, lots of laughter, adventures around Djursland and family games! (and of course, my brain working overtime to understand Danish!)
Dage 1 Billeder ... Day 1 Photos
Kasper er klar til hans fødselsdag kage! Kasper is ready for his birthday cake!
Emma spiller en kamp med Farfar (I Danmark, hedder et barnebarn hans fars far, "farfar", og hans fars mor "farmor". Han hedder hans mors mor, "Mormor" og hans mors far, "Morfar", så Thomas er "farfar" til Emma, men "morfar" til Rebecca!
Emma plays a game with Farfar. (In Denmark a grandchild calls his dad´s dad "farfar" and his dad´s mom "farmor". He calls his mom´s mom "Mormor" and his mom´s dad "Morfar", so Thomas is "farfar" to Emma, but "morfar" to Rebecca!

Thomas kan ikke forstår hvorfor vi kan ikke løbe som hurtig som ham! Men han har en NY HJERTE fra sidst sommer og vi alle har gammel, træt hjerter! LOL
Thomas does not understand why we cannot run as fast as he can! But he has a NEW HEART from last summer and we all have old, tired hearts! LOL

I'm looking forward to see other pictures:)
What a fun and special weekend to hang out with the family. I think it's really cool too because it gives them all a chance to get to know you a little better too!
Wish that we were there with you!
Wow...that is so great that the Danish language has distinguishing words for grandparents on either side. That's much easier than always saying, "my grandmother, on my mother's side...my grandfather, on my father's side, etc."
