Look at These Pretty Buttons!


Last weekend we were playing fetch with Chase in the King's Garden and met an American couple with a baby. I got the woman's contact information and ended up getting together with her and her English speaking friends yesterday. They were all so nice and sent me information about dog boarding, birthing classes, restaurants in the area, flea markets, etc. They even invited Aaron and me to a party this weekend. A couple of the women like to sew and we might get together.

Yesterday afternoon I slowly wandered from the Metro to Aaron's lab. I stopped in an antique shop that had a bowl full of buttons. I picked these out and want to make some purses or kids clothes with them. (The buttons are an assortment of mother of pearl, ceramic, glass, and metal.)

Aaron and I might go to Sweden on Saturday or Sunday because the exchange rate is better there--many Danes do their shopping in Malmo. We want to pick up some things for the apartment and baby's room.

I found a website that has sewing and Italian language classes in Gentofte, where we will be living. The next round of classes start this fall and I plan on signing up for some evening classes then.
