Anneli visits Oulu

Hilja, Annikki's mother's 86th birthday was on the 14th of March. Daughter, Anneli, Annikki's younger sister, who lives just outside Helsinki could not come up on the day.

She had to attend a conference in Oulu University on Friday, so she arrived in Oulu on Thursday evening to spend the weekend at home with her mother.

On Saturday, she visited their sister, Aino, in their new home, which she with her persistence, was instrumental in organising.



Later in the evening Anneli and Annikki celebrated their mother's birthday by making a cake for her.



Anneli has taken up a very creative hobby of knitting colourful woollen socks. Here is a selection of some her designs.



The black and white striped one is mine to use when I work in the cellar. Thanks, Anneli.
