Love ALL the posts!
FAC
Dear Elizabeth's Fabulous Aunt Cindy,
We just wanted to assure you that we are leaving our days wide open for a Rock Barn trip when we get back, so you should go ahead and schedule that.
Love, E&J
my biggest language blunder in chinese was when i was trying to talk about eating tofu and i managed to say "when i touch women's breasts i immediately throw up." it was a pretty amazing mistake.
so spice the blog up a bit and share your worst, aye?
Dear Jacob (We’re assuming this is Jacob. If not, we're terribly sorry),
We don't really speak enough Finnish to make that mistake, but our biggest faux pas has definitely been stealing two elderly Finnish ladies' seats on the train. With our luggage. We'll ask Laura to let us know what stupid things we've done, though, so we'll get back to you on this one.
Love, E&J
Iceskating anyone? Or maybe just a walk around town :)
Hurray for wellness!
Mama G
Dear Mama Gresalfi,
While Jaime attempted ice skating sans skates, as documented by the recent video, we think that Elizabeth might stick to walking for a while. Her post-cast plans include first shaving 6 weeks' worth of leg hair (grossss), and later trying out Finnish ballroom dancing classes. Those also entail physically dragging your daughter along.
Love, E&J
Are you investigating any winter sports?
Allen R
Dear Allen,
Due to Elizabeth's leg injury, the winter sports have been placed on hold, but we can't wait to check out the skiing.
Love, E&J
Onnittelu tyttolapsi!

FAT :)))))
Dear Elizabeth's Favorite Aunt Tricia,
We have no idea what this says.
Love, E&J
Awesome pictures! Do they have "walkers" for the ice rink? Haha. You girls are doing a wonderful job sharing your experience with us!
Cindy
Dear Cindy,
No, but if they did we would totally rent one for Elizabeth!
Love, E&J
O Pulla,
Sweet treat in the land of Fin,
Can Rachel Ray replicate in only 30 min?
I wanna, gotta, havva,
Pulla, come to momma!
Love the prose!
But wait, could Pulla possibly be the very same dough of Harris Teeter fame? Maybe just twisted a tad and covered with goo.
O Pulla, is it you?
Dear Mommas,
We love you. You're both ballers, and now we understand where we get our awesome poetry skills from.
Love, E&J
I will be looking forward to your first post about a large Scandinavian man wearing nothing but a red thong.
That will probably come with an increase in temperature.
Until then I'll be looking forward to a post about your first Finnish boyfriend and hope the two aren't aren't related.
Addendum: 5.6 Billion inches of yarn it will take before you knit a onesie that will be warm enough in Finland.
Dear Jacob,
We haven't found your large Scandinavian man yet, but never fear, we promise to post a picture when we do.
Love, E&J
great post guys
win.
Dear Colin,
Your mom's a win.
Love, E&J
