And then there was this:
And this:
And of course lots of time actually at the beach and in the water, but no photos of that.
And now there’s an apartment with gifts piled in the corners, waiting for homes (I either need a few apartment or some very creative storage solutions). And thank yous to write. And all kinds of things that have been neglected over the last few weeks and months. And an incredible number of books that I put on hold “to read on vacation” and never got around to opening. And a husband.

Many years to you and your husband! I remember the first year I was married we lived in a tiny apartment, and we had deinitely had the creative storage solution thing going on, in addition to unconventional furniture arrangement. For instance, we stored all the kitchen small appliances on a bookcase in the dining nook, which we used as a sitting room.

Thanks, Sarah! My kitchen appliances mostly live in the linen closet 🙂
