Dear friends and family,

This page is a look back at the highlights of
the 2006 in the Elk family..
We hope you enjoy it!
January 2006
2006 was the busiest year yet for the Elk family. We started a new year by buying a new house! But we had to wait a while before moving in while we fixed a few things...
February 2006
In February we went for an early spring break in the summer house. Jonathan loved being in the garden in his playhouse despite the arctic cold!

Looking after a family of 5 is hard work, so Granny helps by taking Jonathan to the beach while Jacob takes a nap..
Summer 2006
We all went to visit a farm and Jonathan loved the animals and specially this kitten!
September 2006
The twins enjoyed their first ever swim ..
September 2006

The christening of the twin was in September. One twin each for Jacob and Ulla on the way to the church.. Having twins is a very simple way to ensure equality between the sexes!

That was the year that was.. a year of change and hard work, but all for the better and many Kodak moments for us all..
We wish you all a Happy and wonderful year in 2007!
