Fall Life zagreb

Autumn in Zagreb

Four generations together! My Mama, Mika (my Grandma) and my cousin Alina were just here for two glorious weeks. They brought the sunshine with them after weeks of pouring rain and all of the hills and trees suddenly blazed in reds and golds and changing color. Fitting that my Mom’s favorite season really began with their arrival. It was so much fun having them here!! Amazing to have that family time together and I cannot believe it’s already come and gone.

One of my favorite stores in Zagreb, Jasmina i Lutkice. The owners are so sweet; the wife hand makes all of the dolls and walking inside feels like walking into a fairytale. I’m almost done with Gracie’s nursery and you’ll see some sweet little things from this shop in her room 🙂

      Elise, I'm so sorry, I did see your question and answered you but I was really slow in responding to comments on that post so my bad that you didn't see it! I have a Canon 5d mark iii and 50mm lens. Took me a while to save for them both but it has been absolutely worth it!

    Gracie and Alina are first cousins once removed. The closest relative they have in common is a grandparent to one of them (first) and a great-grandparent to the other one or one generation further away (once removed). So Gracie and Alina's hypothetical child would be second cousins as the first ancestor they had in common would be a great-grandparent to both. One day when Gracie has kids, they and Alina will be first cousins twice removed. I recently learned how that works, and now I want to tell everyone because it seems so confusing and obscure, but it's actually pretty simple.

    Beautiful, as always! I looooove the pics of sweet Gracie with your mom and Mika! <3 Every time I see a pic of John Shea playing in dirt/water, playing with sticks, etc., I giggle; he and Ayden would be fast (and filthy) friends, I just know it. 😀 XO

    Lãnh Nguyệt nhìn Lưu Phong, cẩn thận đánh giá, ánh mắt toát ra một tia hân thưởng, nâng chén rượu nói: “Tước gia đến đây phó ước thật vinh hạnh cho Lãnh Nguyệt, ta kính Tước gia một chén.” Nói xong Lãnh Nguyệt uống cạn.

    Lưu Phong mỉm cười nói: “Nghe danh Lãnh Nguyệt tiên sinh đã lâu, chén rượu này ta uống.” Nói xong Lưu Phong cũng uống cạn. Hắn mặc dù không biết Lãnh Nguyệt nhưng từ ngôn đàm đến cử chỉ của người này thì dám chắc Lãnh Nguyệt không hề đơn giản.

    Lãnh Nguyệt lại nói: “Tước gia, ta kính ngươi thêm một chén.”

    Hai người lại cộng ẩm.

    Lưu Phong uống xong, cười nói: “Chẳng biết tiên sinh tìm ta là có chuyện gì? Không phải là định làm thuyết khách cho chủ nhân của ngươi chứ?”

    Lãnh Nguyệt cười ha ha nói: “Tước gia nói quá. Lãnh Nguyệt bất quá là ngưỡng mộ đại danh của người đã lâu nên mới mạo muội cầu kiến.”

    “Vậy sao? Tiên sinh, mọi người đều là người thông minh. Có chuyện gì người trực tiếp nói ra đi.”

    Lãnh Nguyệt vẻ mặt tư lự nói: “Thái tử phi điện hạ muốn gặp Tước gia.”

    Lưu Phong mỉm cười: “Tiên sinh hôm nay tìm ta chỉ để nói lời này thôi sao?”

    Lãnh Nguyệt cười dài nói: “Tước gia quả nhiên là Tước gia, Lãnh Nguyệt có tâm sự cũng không gạt được ngươi.”

    Lãnh Nguyệt nhìn bốn phía, sau đó thấp giọng nói: “Tước gia, ngươi bây giờ có biết tình thế của kinh đô?”
    Lưu Phong từ từ buông chén rượu xuống, gật đầu nói:
