Well, we didn't just go for a photoshooting today, we had a good party, too. Ingólfur took care of baking bread, a huge cake and a kransekage in shape of a cornucopia with a chocolateball on top. We were lucky and Haukur was ready to manage the kitchen and food for us so we could be relaxed about this. Hjördís got a special guestbook - a fingerprint guestbook. Think most of the guests liked the idea, I definitely did and had fun making it.
We hope it was a special day for Hjördís and she enjoyed every part of it, it definitely was for us.

Today was Hjördís' big day, which started very early for us. Our alarm went off at 5 o'clock in the morning as Ingólfur had to finish baking before church, which was at 10.30 am. After the confirmation itself I fetched Hjördís and we went for a quick shooting in the local park and at a warehouse with a great view over the bay. She was, just like last time, ready for everything and we had lots of fun, even though it was rather cold. We got the last sun for the next days, it started to snow later that day during Hjördís' party. 

Today, after preparing a whole lot for the confirmation, we finally managed to take the first pics!
It was quite an adventure as we had chosen to shoot on the beach and take Angus, Hjördís' dog with us. I already had some pics in my head about what I'd like to do and was lucky enough that Hjördís was willing to take part in my crazy ideas. We had a lot of fun and I am really, really proud of Hjördís for doing what she did on the beach!

The weather is really good at the moment, so we spend more time outside with the horses after work than at home in front of the computer, which results in fewer news here. Additionally we are preparing the confirmation of Hjördís, which is going to take place 24th of March and will be quite an event. So many things to think about and organize, stuff to do, things to buy and soooo much to remember. But it is supposed to be a wonderful day for her, so we try our best to make it that. One thing we still have to do is going for a photoshooting, so we can show some pics during the event. Hope we'll find some time soon, as it is just 1 week to go...
The horses are fine, most of them starting to loose their winterfur, Sigtýr has had enough of training for the moment and got rid of a shoe, the foals are growing and growing and the others enjoying life.

After a long time in the winterpasture at Ísólfsstaðir, we fetched Gjöf and Aldís. There was a lot of snow and therefore it was more difficult for the horses to find something to eat and the farmer had started feeding them. So it was time to get them home.

The welcome wasn't as warm as the two ladies would probably have liked, but after a short time, they were allowed to join at the haybale.
But before that, I got the chance to take a few pics of our horses in motion, especially Þrá had fun running and bucking like a youngster.

Good to have them home again.
