Starting the 52 week project - The first weeks

I decided to join the 52 week project this year, too. This is my third year now and I'm starting a bit late. We have spent a lot of time with the horses and I have been more active with my horse blog. Here I will try not to put only horse photos, as I already show them in my other blog. For this project I will try to choose only one significant photo for each week.
Here are my first four weeks.

Week 1
We were in Finland. It snowed a little bit only on one day. Everything looked so much brighter.

Week 2
Back in Rome and back to our riding club. We had a nice lunch there at Sunday. Here's Carlotta with her friend Irene. They have so much fun together.

Week 3

Lots of work this week. On Tuesday Carlotta was tired and stayed at home from school. It rained the whole day.

Week 4

A nice pizza evening with Alessia and Stefania who we hadn't seen for a long time. They are mother and daughter and me, Alessia and Sofia used to ride at the same riding school. I was quite tired having worked late nights, but it was nice to get out.

Beautiful sky

I have been more active with my horse blog lately, but I will bring this one to life, too. And hopefully start scrapbooking again!
Today it rained all day, but in the late afternoon the sky was this beautiful.

Week 52 - The last week of the year and Welcome 2014

In this week's post I encluded the last 9 days of the year. On the 23rd the whole family travelled to Finland. Next day was Christmas Eve. We had a nice dinner and everyone got some presents. We took a walk on Christmas day and Carlotta could go by bicycle as there was no snow in Finland this year. My husband and my children had brought the tombola game from Italy so we played it a few times. On the 27th the shops opened again and we found some clothes at the winter sales. We visited my friend and their sweet little cat. Daniele went to his friend in Lovisa and me, my mother and the girls went to Helsinki. My mother had reserved tickets to the opera "La Cenerentola" and we stayed in a hotel in the centre of Helsinki. It was a lovely Christmas present for us! Me and the girls welcomed the new year at my brother's house and played a Finnish game called "The star of Africa" till half past two in the night. It's easy enough and exciting enough for everyone and Carlotta didn't want to stop at all.
