1. advent - our weekend :-)

It has been a good weekend. Yesterday we went to the temple with two good friends Stephan and Joanna. We drove early morning, and it was snowing so much we wasnt sure we would make it to Copenhagen. But we did - we even reached the first session.
It was good to be in the temple again! I am happy we have a temple so close by.

After temple we tried to find an indian resturant, but it didnt work out. After driving through what felt like all of Copenhagen, we decided to go for a mexican one instead. The food was really good, but the place could have been more cozy.....

It has been snowing a lot these days. I like it :-) Feels like winter and christmas!
And today when we visited Steens grandma at the nursing home, they where singing christmas carols and eating "epleskiver" and "pepperkaker". It looked like the elderly people had a good time, and we enjoyed it too.

One of the things about christmas that has always fascinated me, is our christmas carols. All around us we can hear christmas music, with lyrics about Christ as a baby. Even in the stores will play this kind of music, and I really do think that has an influence on people, even if they notice or not.

This is one of my favorit christmas songs. When I was a teenager I went to Ten-Sing Tromøy for a couple of years, and every year we used to sing this song in church before christmas. It brings back a lot of good memories...!
