19

Starsi syn Michael Jan oslavil 24 listopadu 19 narozeniny. Sesla se u nas na oslavu cela rodina a protoze bylo vsude plno snehu,pripadalo mi to spis jako vanoce nez konec listopadu.

Son Michael Jan celebrated 19th birthday on November 24th. The whole family got together and because there was so much snow it felt more like Christmas holidays than the end of November.

Happy Birthday Michael!!!

Nase cubicka Tess se okamzite nabali snehem jen kdyz se jde vycurat, Neil ji v patek odklidil snih pred domem. Vecer se uz oteplilo a zacalo prset a behem vikendu snih pomalu ale jiste tal.

Our Tess gets covered with snow just stepping out to pee so Friday Neil cleared some space for her in the front of the house. By the evening it was warmer and raining.

Pri dnesni prochazce uz nebylo po snehu ani pamatky

The snow was gone when we went for a walk today.

Nakrcnik - Cowl

Konecne jsem si upletla nakrcnik! Mela jsem to v planu uz od minule zimy ale nejak jsem ten plan stale odkladala.Nevim proc,z tluste prize byl upleteny behem dvou veceru a to jen diky tomu,ze jsem si vybrala tenhle vzorek a tak jsem pri pleteni stale pocitala ocka.

Finally I made a cowl for myself. I planed to make one last winter but I was putting it off. I don't know why, using a thick wool it was done in two evenings and that's only because I chose a pattern which I had to count throughout the whole work.
