At peace

My grandfather took his last breath last Saturday, surrounded by Grandma and their 3 daughters.
May he rest in peace!

The funeral was yesterday, and it was just beautiful. All the flower decorations matched perfectly, all autumn colors, and made the small, intimate chapel warm and inviting. My uncle played "Oblivion" by A.Piazzolla, a wonderfully written piece. I don't think it could have been more perfect.

I love you, Grandpa!

Birthdayparty

And I asked them all to gather around Grandpa like an oldfashioned photographer. Anders and Anne came later.. Grandma had booked a room with equipment like cutlery, plates and coffee machine. Mum and Astrid had made snitter and Grandma had baked kringle. And then it was Astrids cream cake with cloud berries (picked up around Grandpas cabin). I know I shouldn't eat any dairy products, but it was so yummie! And I know Grandpa enjoyed his 90th birthday tremendously.

Preparations

Mum and Grandma is putting together the flower decorations for the family party, celebrating Grandpas 90th birthday, tomorrow.

17th of May

Hooray! Spent the morning at Donskitoppen where Grand-dad is living. We watched the children marching by, had some coffee and now relaxing in the garden. Mum borrowed my hat from my national costume. Lovely, isn't she?
