Our long summer!



April - June
 Work work and work, graduation.
Work has been so busy and it was the end of the year. No excuses for no blog writing. Jai has had more time to write something, so now that he is 8 years old, he should!!
There was a graduation dance for the 9 th graders and a farewell. They looked awesome. So grown up and ready to face more challenges. Jai turned 8. It was a quickest and shortest party I ever held! Told his school friends on a Sunday and the party was on the Monday. In an hour and a half,with his friends over, Jai was the happiest little boy xx.
We also had a little house blessing from the gurudwara.  I had my mum and dad, amar, swinder, khrishy and cute Arun over and then parmys parents... It was busy!!
We went crab fishing. Great outdoors stuff here.
I forgot to mention I did the 10k walk, Ananya and Jai did the goteburgvarvet run, no cause, just because its popular here!!
July
This was the time when we bought liseberg's cards and spent most of July at the amusement park. The weather was awesome. Not only here, but also at the universeum. We could walk around these places with our eyes shut. What was nice that we could do this by ourselves and with friends. It was nice o meet up with them during the summer.
We did a trip to Helsinki, and Lahti, Finland. Helsinki is so pretty. We drove from Gothenburg to Stockholm and then caught a ferry.
I was very nervous.. I was thinking of the Zebrugge disaster.
But it was a good way of travelling.
Helsinki was great. Love the city. I think we all did. The  Kiiskinnen's were great hosts. Ananya disappeared with Jade and Niiki really looked after Jai.
Sara and Vesa, you guys rock!! Lahti seems really nice.
On our way back, we drove from Stockholm to Skane- near Malmo!
Funny how driving in the UK seemed daunting, but here, no problems.. Probably because the weather helped, the picturesque view and obviously no pile up holiday traffic!!
Skane was nice. It was hot. Parmy's friend was nice who let us stay over at his house. We went to the beach white sand and cold blue sea. I bought Ananya and Jai a beach ball and guess what, they lost it!! Typical!! 
We went to the Viking museum. That was nice. Kids were allowed to touch the tools and play with Viking equipment. 
We had a good time down south of Sweden. And it's only just over 3 hours drive!
On return to home we prepared for the the ones and only Ethan and Rhiya.
We were so excited to see them. W had an awesome time with them.. We visited Liseberg, again! We went to Naset beach and most importantly, we went to see PSG play friendly with Real Madrid at Ullevi.
It was a good match. I think all kids had a blast.. I know I did

Aug
Roll on August! Back to work. Nothing much happening now.. Apart from the kids do need to go back to school. Holidays are too long!!
