Before posting Christmas 2014 and New Years I have two more posts from the busy Fall I wanted to get in (in a lame attempt to keep things orderly?!)
Sam & Suzie's Top Ten list from their first visit to Stockholm
September/October 2014
1. Seeing the Castles in their new town. Pride in our nieces, who navigate the city like pros.

| Sofia and Audra |
 |
| Audra and Aunt Suzie in front of the Drama Theater |
2. Sofia's class singing Happy Birthday in many different languages. And the big birthday sleep over, it took five adults and two sisters to pull off.

| Sofia's birthday meringues |
3. The Vasa and Nordiska museums.
4. Gröna Lund (such a fun girl's day).
 |
| the Original sisters and the Junior sisters |
 |
| one last swing |
 |
| Aunt Jan trying to master the Fun House steps... it's not as easy as it looks! |
 |
| Gabby and Audra in front of Insane (roller coaster)... Uncle Sam will have to do this next time |
5. Scotland with brothers from another mother.
 |
| Gordon, Marshall and Sam |
6. Fika at the Garage and Wienercafeet... such a civilized way of living.
7. Wandering the streets of Gamla Stan.
8. Cap'n Gordon taking us on a beautiful fall boat ride on the Baltic.

| Djurgården canal |

9. Meeting Nancy's expat friends, cooking lunch together, wine and conversation. Now we know how Nancy spends her days! (And why this blog post is so late!!)

 |
| soon to be grilled sandwiches |
 |
| Lori and me in my favorite spot in Heidi's kitchen |

10. The Sprit Museum with the Original sisters. Only with your sisters should you drink vodka in the morning and then see an exhibit on Swedish Sex.

| Sam and Suzie (posing on the walk back from Gröna Lund) |
