Sweden and Denmark!!!

WELCOME to Malmo Sweden....
Let me start out with the two people that
have made this whole Sweden experience
possible... Anette and Rolf...
Well we arrived in Malmo, and Anette and Rolf
picked us up from the train station... and it has been
fun with them since...
They have been so amazing to us the whole time that we
have been in Sweden. They let us borrow their car,
they find us bikes, they take us on tours of Sweden,
they help us find anything and everything!
Honestly I dont know what we would do without them...
and best of all they invite us to sweet BBQs
with their fantastic friends.
This was the first night we got there and they had us over for a BBQ.
We pretty much were there for six hours laughing uncontrolably.
Rolf and Annette, and their friends, are seriously the best!

Then the following weekend... their friends, Violet & Peter,
invited us to another BBQ/Kareokee Bananza!
They dominated the mic, while Austin and I butchered
Sweet Caroline haha. (But they didn't seem to notice).
This pic is of Peter singing 'California Dream'n' (dedicated to us)
everybody else showed off their skills, and there was
dancing...yes dancing!!! it was pretty much
AMAZING!!


We have been staying at this amazing little cottage
(compliments of Rolf and Annette)

And let me just say this is pretty much what we
have been doing in sweden....

-Bike Riding (around town)
-Going to the Beach(on our bikes)
-Bike Riding (to the store for food)
-Lounging around the cottage
-Bike Riding (to church)
-Playing in the sprinkler
(it had been so hot and ha ha yes we are 5)
-Bike Riding (just for fun)
ha ha yes we have been doing a LOT of bike riding...
pretty much all of Sweden rides bikes...most of the time,
it is so much fun and I love it...
BUT sometimes when it is windy and im in a skirt riding home
from church...then its not as much fun.

Bike riding to Anettes and Rolfs to pick some cherrys...
yummm!!

ha ha Rolf and Austin eating a Swedish hot dog!

Me and Austin at the pier where EVERYONE goes to lay out...
its not the beach but it sure is pretty.

So basically the ward that we found in Sweden has been so
incredible I am really sad to leave (We have been there for 3 sundays
so we have been able to get to know everyone). They speak in Swedish
the whole time but EVERYONE (and I mean everyone) speaks
English in Sweden (unless your over 80 or under 7) so we
have translators in every meeting. The people in the Ward
have been so kind we cant even begin to thank them all.
..............................
This is one of our favorites, this is Helene and her daughter
Michelle. They had us over for family home evening and dinner.
ha ha we had the best time ever and we are going over again next
week.... Helene is so incredibly sweet and her daughter is so funny!!


ha ha the shopping carts in Sweden...they look like the ones
you hold in your hands but they have wheels...ummm you
cant buy too much with these...Sweden does not buy in
bulk that is for sure!!!


I love this pic of the phone booth...so cool!

Me and Austin in Lund, a small town outside of Malmo..
it was super cute!!!



This is pretty much what I see everytime I look at Austin...
AM I ON REALITY TV?



DRUM ROLL PLEASE.... Copenhagen DENMARK!
So since we have been staying in Malmo, Copenhagen
is just right across the bridge!!! ha ha oh so convenient so
we thought we would check it out.
This was by far my favorite place in Denmark it was
this little boat town named Nyhavn it was so incredibly
cute me and Austin just sat next to two guys playing
their accordians and chilled it was GREAT!!!

I love this pic!!!

Just chillin outside of the palace!

So at twelve noon at the palace they do a changing of the
guards...we couldnt miss that!

We were so lucky...we got to do a session at the temple in
Copenhagen. It was such a neat temple and we got to go with
three other people from the ward, which included the
De Sousa Family. They have been OH SO nice to us....
having us over for soccer games, dinner, taking us to temple sessions,
laundry you name it talk about giving service!!! We have
been so blessed to have them :)

and yes.... there is more bike riding in Denmark!!

Well I have more pictures of downtown Malmo to share
a little later.... so ta ta for now!!!
