Welcome to this weeks scavenger hunt.

Not much wind to find, instead I found me a windmill to photograph.

 5.    Remember When...
 ...it was summer? Found this summer photo from our vacation in France, when I was looking for photos to use for christmas presents. (my husbond and daughter)

Before and after – does it have to be perfect?

Even though I do not think everything has to be perfect, I LOVE to process my photos in photoshop.

I would say I am a photoshop addict!

I just got a new lense from my husbond as a wedding present, and I practicing in using it. I is a 90 mm with macro. Today I shot some of my photos for the scavenger hunt, and some of my kids too. Here is a before and after of Alba - my daughter.

Before

And of course after... 

dobble up...

Since the last few weeks have been busy getting ready for the surprice wedding, this sunday is a dobble up on my Scavenger Hunt. 
I just got back from London, so most of the pictures from there.

Black and White
I just got home from a three day trip to London with my husbond, a sort of honeymoon ;-)
I love the London Underground, so many different people to look at, coming from all over the world and from all classes of sociaty.

I Ate This
I did the wedding cake myself. It was a red velvet cake with cream cheese frosting, the same with the cupcakes. More wedding photos from our surprise wedding last week her.

Historic
So many historic places to see in London.

Off-Center
I love to look a all the things in the stores, here from Harvey Nichols.

The End
From the end of our trip going back to Denmark.
I was looking for angels up there – but I did not see you...

In My Home
We are now ready for christmas... almost, well the christmas deko it up and so is the childrens stockings – Isac is very exited to see if santa or his helpers has put any presents in the stocking.
Dear santa I have been good - most of the time...

It's beginning to look a lot like...
London was full of chrismas decoration, big and small.

Sweet Treat
We went to an outdoor food market in Covent Garden, so many good looking cakes...

Time
What better to show the time than Big Ben in London?

Everyday
Remember to enjoy every day! Right now in denmark we have lots of snow. The kids love it, I do too, (just a bit annoying when it stops the traffic.) So everyday you see lots of kids playing in the snow, here it is my son Isac and the neighbor kid Gustav.

Surprise – it is a wedding...

I have been looking forward to last saturday for a year! A year ago we decided to have a big party this november to celebrate my husbond 40 years birthday – and at the same time to surprise our friends and family with a wedding! We are already married at city hall, but wanted to do it again, this time in church.

We invited our guest to the party with a pirat theme invitation, asking them to be there early for the treasure hunt. They where picked up by a bus after recieving a treasure map with questions on, and the driver drove to the church... Surprise... :-) Would have loved to see their faces when they found out it was a wedding.
