best birthday present ever!!

It's my birthday on Monday... yep another year.. It seems that the years go way faster now that I have a child.. and it is scary.. it also makes me think about some things I have not done.. One of them being a sleighride!!! We were supposed to do it with Aran's parents but there was not enough snow.. Well, snow is here and we went for the most amazing ride ever. And what I love the most, besides the experience, are the beautiful pictures that were made of the three of us.. Oh yes, there will be some blown up this time around!! I think you know which ones.

This was our view form the mountain.. we picked the perfect time for the sleighride. We started at 4 and were back by 4:45.. This was the view walking back to the car. 

walking back down the mountain.. it was pretty cold up there, but worth the view!!

We are laughing because we both can see Lilja put her arms in her sides for the photo op..

Such a little girl on such a big horse. not afraid at all..

Looking like a natural!!



Yep, one of my favorite photos..



and this one.. bundled up and it was just the three of us in the sleigh.. felt so special!!

view around us.

we had a wonderful guide, Emmy, who was great with Lilja too.. always makes adifference to have a great guide!!

Aran is humoring me with all these selfies.. I never get photos of the three of us.. well, that is going to stop..It's my birthday and I can take phots if I want to...



also a favorite of mine.



some hot chocolate to warm us up.



the two girls .. Yep, did I tell you already it was my birthday?? well, not really but it felt like it..
