This summer my mom's been tantalising me with photos of her garden. I haven't been home since 2004. Since then my parents have doubled the landscaped parts of their garden, paved the pathways, painted the whole house, put on a new tin roof, and repaired the ailing original windows (ripply blown glass, not that you can see in these pictures). I hope I get to go back this fall.

Yep, but we don't actually have to be married. I have family member status for visa purposes now because we've cohabited for two years, so we're common-law married, by Finnish law.
