Jeg overlevede / I survived

Så i går kom hele familien til julehygge. Jeg fik nogenlunde gjort klar og havde ihvertfald bagt halvdelen af æbleskiverne da de kom. For sådan er det. Jeg bliver aldrig helt klar og der er altid noget de lige må hjælpe med - hvilket de så også gerne gør!

Hele englehæren stod klar på bordet, og jeg havde julekopperne ude. Jeg opdagede faktisk at jeg "kun" har 10 sæt som matcher helt, så jeg skal vist på jagt i nogle genbrugsbutikker! Hvis vi efterhånden bliver over 14 mennesker er der overhovedet heller ikke nok. 

So yesterday the entire family came for our Christmas tradition. I set the table and I guess I had baked at least half of the æbleskiver when they came. Because that's how it is. I'm never entirely ready and there is always something they need to help with - which they do happily!

The entire angelic army was ready on the table, and I took out my Christmas cups. I found out that I "only" have 10 sets that match entirely, so I guess I will have to go hunting in some thrift stores! If we become more than 14 people in a few years, there is definitely not enough. 

Jeg bagte firdobbelt portion æbleskiver. Der var MANGE! De blev spist - hver eneste en - og jeg var nok ikke den eneste som endte med en lille smule ondt i maven!

Pakkelegen var også god i år. Nogle fik rigtig mange gaver, andre næsten ingen. Og gaverne var præcis så underlige som de skal være. 

I made a quadruple portion of æbleskiver. There were A LOT! They were eaten - every single one - and I guess I'm not the only one ending up with a little bit of tummy ache!

Our gift game was also really good this year. Some had a lot of presents, other almost none. And the gifts were just as weird as they should be. 

Så - alt var kaos! Præcis som altid. Undtagen altså mine juleøreringe som blev fint lagt i orden. 

Det var en dejlig dag i går, men jeg vil sandelig også nyde dagen i dag! Uden gæster.

So - everything was chaos! Exactly as always. Except for my Christmas earrings that were put in order. 

It was such a lovely day yesterday, but I'm also going to enjoy today! Without guests.
