Closest I got to sending Chritmas Cards this year...

-
I KNOW.. I am SOOOO lame. I always have the best intentions of doing cards for all of my friends & family... Really I do.

I even thought while snapping pictures in Paris this summer, WOW...this is going to make aa AWESOME Christmas card.

Lets face it... I am a procrastinator & a sucky Christmas planner...


So dear family & friends... If I HAD sent out a card this year, THIS is what it would have looked like!

Merry Christmas from our family to yours! : ) Tressa

That is adorable! Your kids are so cute. I can beat you in lameness, I actually bought the cards and I didn't send them. I never got around to writing them out, but I do have the damn cards! I dont know why I even try. I have only gotten cards out one year, and that was about 5 years ago... Thanks for the update on Norway weather, we are off to Skien in 2 days!! whoo hoo!!

Merry Christmas to you too! I love all the shots you chose. Too funny.

On a different note, I had a dream that I ran into you and your family at a Christmas party here. CRAZY aye? I started introducing you to everyone like we were old friends. Where do these things come from?

Our cards won't go out until tomorrow. But that is mostly because I NEVER print pictures...and had not anticipated how long it would take for Snapfish to send my prints!

But...I LOVE the card you made. Merry Christmas to you and yours!

That is a great card! Are you kidding me with your comment on my blog? You take fantastic photos!!! I've got an "old" 400D from Canon. But I strongly recommed a program called Picasa 3. I think you can download it free...it's easy (for we who like the basic route with computers and gadgets)and lets you retouch photos so you get the photo you intended to take, even if it isn't the way you want it when you upload it to your computer!!!

Hello Friend. I think this was brilliant! Why not post your Christmas card on your blog for your friends to enjoy? I think it's a capital idea. I sent out exactly 5! Shame on me. I just could not get all my ducks in a row. Your page is looking splendid, have enjoyed my visit here today. Come back and see me some time, Love and haPPINESS, KERI

You are doing better than me. I haven't even gotten the Christmas picture of the kids in front of the tree yet!

Although this year I might entertain sending out a "New Year Letter." I haven't sent anything in a couple of years. It has been nice.

LOL, great idea! I barely got my Christmas cards out, and they were NOT what I wanted... next year, I might just skip it altogether!

Hey you... hungry butt!

Hey you, Hungry butt!!!! .... First thought that played through my mind as I stood behind the woman in the GREY SWEATPANTS in line at the post office..... Hungry Butt is what my little sister & her friends say when referring to what in my day, was called a WEDGIE ..... "Hungry Butt" just fit the large bottom , which was gobbling its underwear in front of me.... Ugh.... the sight of her butt was burning into my mind as I waited in the ridiculously SLOW line at the post office.... No longer able to stand the site... I put my boxes down... and did the neighborly thing.... I pulled her underwear out of her butt.... You should have seen the SHOCK & SURPRISE on her face ... Ummm , OK I didn't do that... I tapped her on her shoulder & in my best AMERICAN accent announced to her & the rest of the post office... that she had the picture perfect HUNGRY BUTT... cause it was gobbling everything in sight... K... I didn't do that either... I just stood

A visit to the ICE AGE....

Sunday... FUN-DAY, Another family day..... Because we had such nice weather, (never knowing how long it will last) we decided to take another family hike.... (2.5 hours....) around the be ach. It is funny, each week, each hike, I see changes in our family....less whining (on my part) & more time learning, enjoying our time together....Bjørn who usually gets irritated with all of my picture taking, is stopping to find things to take pictures of...appreciating colors, nature etc. Dane is less squeamish...touching & picking up all of sorts of things he finds along the hike.... Today we learned about Jettegryter or "Stone Pots" these huge rock formations from the ICE AGE .... pretty cool... these holes are formed by pebbles/gravel being aggitated by water, over thousand of years.... WOW..The holes on our local beach date back to 15,000 years.... the kids had a blast.... & wanted to stay much long
