Happy Midsommar/Midsummer! Will you be celebrating the summer equinox today? Eating strawberries and making flower crowns? My favorite things to do on Midsummer's Eve are: taking photos of the dogs + lupines, going out with kayaks and paddleboards to explore the lakes, and then having some tasty...
I had a fun summer side quest in mind, but as Mogwai was recovering from thyroid surgery and it was raining again, I sat down at the kitchen table and started experimenting with Lego printmaking. The plan: Create a design with Lego dots or tiles on...
How is your spring going? It seems like we're either having super hot days or almost getting washed away by heavy rainfalls. For getting my work done (and letting my sprained ankle rest), it's great but we're 100% ready for some summer fun! I'm looking forward...
Spring arrives late here up north. For a while, the changing seasons are just winter with more light, but slowly, as the snow disappears, the earth comes back to life. We’ll spot the first snowdrops and colorful crocuses, but in the next few weeks, there is...
We're longing for warmer days, for feeling the sunlight and eating ice cream. But at the same time, this is such an incredible time for long hikes and exploring. The cold days between winter and the start of a real spring, we love them! The snow on...
Some cold air is still floating around, and the wind can still bite our noses, but the snow is definitely melting fast! We've been hanging out in the sun and shoveling fresh snow in the same week. Well,...
Some dogs don’t care about rainy weather or even love going for a mud bath. Some jump in puddles and roll around in wet grass. Lizzie isn’t one of them. On the contrary. Lizzie is a 100% sun-adoring creature with a strong opinion about cold, wet, and gloomy...
Lizzie has been soaking up all the sunlight she can now that we're in Belgium and spring has arrived. She's been sunbathing outside and rolling in the fresh grass. Oh, she's so happy when it's sunny! I don't dare to tell her that we got fresh...
It's funny how the whole world looks magical and pretty with a gentle layer of snow. I think I'm fortunate that we got to see some winter beauty in Belgium, but most Belgians probably disagree haha. It was typical to announce a few days of below-zero...
The "yeah, we had a party weekend"- faces :-) Let's try again! Ok, that's not too bad, right? :-) After this shot, Mogwai and Lizzie quickly ran off to sniff and explore, but Oona was in the mood for some tricks & treats! It might look like winter...
