Merry Christmas! 🎉 @FikaTimeBooks.com

So, we were in Redding, Ca until Friday when it started raining. I'm very glad we left when we did, cause they're currently having issues with entire blocks being flooded with deep water! First they had fog for like 21 days or something, and now extreme rains.. what's next, locusts?! 😬 Also, seeing cars driving through the water after our experience with deep water here in Az where we wrecked our transmission has me concerned for their vehicles.

God Jul 🥳🎄 Today, Santa is getting ready to visit a bunch of Swedish kids after they've finished watching the Disney Christmas Greetings at 3pm. ☺️

I'm so happy to be home! Sure, we brought our motorhome with is, which was great, but having it parked back on our own land, with our own solar system, and no one for blocks, is really nice! Also glad that it won't rain until tomorrow afternoon here, so we can relax today, before going into town and getting the stuff needed to seal around the entire roof, cause we were in rain on Friday, and I'm still finding wet spots in the carpet 😖

Just remembered that in one of my dreams, @Noshole was serving me soup. I think something happened to the first bowel, so she went to get me another one. 🤣

Eventful day, but now it seems everything is sorted! I was stuck, alone with our baby boy on the side of the road, without any power in our motorhome, unsure of how or when we'd get it back, or when my hubby would come back, also, where there was no signal, so I couldn't flag someone down to call my hubby to check either 😬 I did flag someone down earlier when our motorhome didn't start, and after trying to jump it for a while, they got it started but then it stopped again, so hubby got a ride to town. He left a bit before 1pm and got back at around 5:30pm. It was already dark, but I remembered that I had some thin candles so I lit one of them so I at least had some light! I'm really happy hubby is back, and seemingly we just needed a new starter battery.

Our son started speaking Wookie today 🤣 we were hoping for English, Swedish, or Korean 🤣

Our son loves walking! He's working up to crawling still, but clearly, walking is easy! He stood before he could hold his head too, so I'm not surprised. He's been walking since about 3 months old, about 2 weeks ago. I finally got it on video!

One good thing about living in a motorhome is that when you realize the roof is leaking all over, you can just drive it to a place that isn't going to be raining the whole week. 😬😅 Time to go home to the desert...

Do you have any baking traditions for Christmas? Growing up, we'd make multiple things, but all of the ones I can think of require Swedish ingredients that are either hard to get, or I'm not even sure are possible to get, in America. At least they sell Swedish Ginger thins here in, so I can get some of those for Christmas. (I prefer the store bought ones in Sweden too 😅)

I clicked on a YouTube video to listen to some Christmas Jazz in the background, and got an ad for diet pills... my ad block apparently stopped working, and also, I clicked out of there and selected the video with two cups of hot chocolate with a ton of mini marshmellows and cancy cains on the image. 🤣 Apparently I felt a bit rebellious 🤣

Today was my first time climbing into a big pickup truck where I climbed on the tire to get in. I have now completed one more level of becoming an American 😎🤣 It was also my first time packing the truckbed full of stuff, so I truly got the real experience, not just the tourist kind, haha
