Stepping out of bed looking out wakes me up immediately and I hop out into the garden (dressed only in my pyjamas and my fake fur) by pure excitement. I look over my shoulder to see if a neighbour is watching me. When secure I shoot some photos of the small snowflakes coming down on my parents garden. Squeeky snow builds on the grass and I smile, happy that winter finally is here.
There is something magical about the snow. Some don´t like it at all, but I think if I didn´t get to experience it every year I would miss it. I have never missed a year with snow! How odd to think about it. Last year we spend 3 months in Peru, but that was after 2 months with lots of snow in Grythyttan.
After some breakfast and blogging Martin and I head out for a walk in the snow. I wear my new shoes that I bought this week in Västervik during Christmas sales. We walk towards Uvgölen, a small forest lake close to where I grew up and meet my aunt and cousins child out on a winter ride. We have a stop and eat some lussebullar and drink coffee before we continue.
I am still at my parents, heading home to Stockholm today.

To see other winter photos from my hometown Gullringen check out – Christmas Day – cool winter weather and a late Christmas tree.
Wonderful photos!
Så kom vintern
Äntligen hit med Daniel!! Som jag längtat 🙂
Amazing shots!! I get so jealous haha it’s still green and brown here. And the photo of the dining room looks so cozy with the candle, the cookies and the red hearts!
Enjoy it! :))
Thanks. Yeah finally the snow arrived. Worst thing is that it is the best weather ever today when we are driving back to Stockholm. :/ so I am spending my time with sunglasses looking out the window at a very wintery Sweden. 🙁
oh, that sucks.. but better late than never! and at least you got some great photos 🙂
Yes. Live the forest in its winter clothing. 🙂
Härligt vinterstyle!
Ja Sveriges vinterklädnad är ju fantastisk. All dressed up.
Ja, på landet. Men i Stockholm är det inget vidare med hala trottoarer samt grus överallt. Hoppas att den försvinner snabbt.
Haha. Nej!! Hoppas det fortsätter snöa!
Utanför ja!!
Haha. Neeej
JU…
Fina bilder! Jag gillar snön. Det blir ljusare och känns nästa mindre kallt än när det är några få plusgrader och regnar och blåser…
Jo men så är det nog. Man fryser inte riktigt lika mycket nu när snön kommit. 🙂
