Christmas Day 2012

A Very Merry Christmas to you all!  We spent Christmas Eve togheter with my mother and my brother.  Ribbe, pølse og surkål! Roasted spareribs!!, sausages and sour cabbage...all Norwegian style.

We have plenty enough of snow...the blue sun has vanished and it's dark outside.  The fire place is warm...the mittens are on...yes it's Christmas and winter in Norway.

 

...even my diningroom is getting there...

 

 

Have fun and do not forget to enjoy...!

An Ordinary Saturday

It's only thirteen days untill April comes along and this is how it looks like at Stangelandet right now!  Four Farenheit - a super blue sky - and ten centimeters with new! snow!  The sun is shining and it's.....noway - it's not Spring.....yet!

Have a wonderful Saturday - and do not forget to enjoy...!

The Last Sunday In December

Yesterday, my son Jan-Nichlas turned twenty years old - Happy Birthday to you!  He's not very pleased having his Birthday during Christmas - he was hoping to be a May boy!

Here he is shoveling snow in our driveway

Here's my brother - helping out!  Thank You so very much!

It snowed 32 centimeters or about 12 inches!  Why?

Have a fun Sunday - play and enjoy...

SISTE DAG I FEBRUAR 2009

Hello - and good afternoon - sitting here talking with my son on msn. Strange this "thing" writing letters on my wireless keyboard - and Jan-Nichlas staying in Oslo writes his own words on his laptop! and I'm reading them here in Ottestad - amazing and strange - and I'm very happy and lucky! Bet you are too!
This is a layout from scrapliftcompetition at - The Pink Forum - I didn't win, but I had a lot of fun - and I tried Prima flowers - a lot of them - it was quite challenging.
The picture is taken August 2007 - it's the SAND i Ryensjøen and the only cloudberry I saw that year.
It's still WINTER here in Norway - we have tons of snow - I'm not a snowfan! But the SUN is here and the sky is blue - spring is right around the corner!
Have a wonderful day and enjoy!
