Time is flying...

...where did September disappear to??? Now it's already October, the horses are getting their wintercoat, the sheep (at least most of them) are home, the birds are starting their journey south.
We have been very busy the last weeks, little time to write her. Last week we had a short stop in Austria, attending the funeral of my late granddad, helping my parents a bit with sorting things and last but not least celebrating a lot of birthdays. First my brother's, then Kristina's, then my cousin's and finally the 90th birthday of my grandma. Ingólfur and I made a cake for her and she was really happy and moved about this. It was so great to see how happy she was about it, That was the best present for us ;)
The weather back here has been rather bad, except for today when we had a perfect autumnday, mild, no wind, sunshine. The lamb I was missing returned too, but both lambs are far too small and too light :( Now we have to feed them well and hope the best. But I think they are in very good hands with Bensi and Ella.
Today we had a look at our foals and they are already wearing their thick wintercoat, especially Þyrnirós seems to take care not to get cold during winter. I'd say she's rather fat, but that's better than her being too thin before winter. Þeysir is doing well, too, growing and improving in looks. Think he'll be a really nice fivegaiter when he's grown up, showing all gaits running free already.
So what's the plan for the next days?
Tomorrow we have to bake and deliver a baptismcake and attend the ceremony, too. Looking forward to make the cake ;)
Sunday we'll take a few youngsters inside, including Sigtýr, who's supposed to get a week of basic training, getting him more used to being around humans. He'll go to Helluland again after that, having a wonderful winterholiday with his friends Dimmir & Co.

Ah, before I forget: we had amazing Northernlights tonight! Stopped a few times on the way back from Hólmavað to have a better look at the dancing lightshow, going from green to white and pink and back.
