Butterflies & Babies Friday Foto Finish

-
Time to play Candid Carrie 's Friday Foto Finish... I couldn't wait to start sharing some of my pictures from the U.S....

These are photos from my baby sister (aka Martha Stewart) wedding last weekend. When Alicia & her new hubby Ryan walked out of the church after the ceremony, Dane & my nephew Tyler set butterflies free....
If you look closely... you will see a butterfly behind Eva's bow


The wedding was amazing... with every little detail planned out by my sister. I am sure I can do 15 posts about the wedding alone...
Maybe I should save the best for last & start with my "Keeping it Classy" Pirate birthday I had for Eva instead?

WOW ....your daughter should be called Mini-Tressa. She's exactly like you. She looks like she's got a bit of mischief in her. And yes, a pirate birthday sounds perfect to me.

I'm so glad you had a great time when you were in the U.S.

I happened to stumble over here after seeing your screen name. I spent a bit of time exploring Norway and then lived in Sweden for two years. I really enjoyed both countries.

Your children are beautiful children!!

Hi Ms. American in Norway! These pictures look like something out of a glossy ad! You are all signed up and linked on Blog Around the World! I have seen your avatar many places including my own on my SITS day last in June. I apologize for not getting over here sooner to thank you. So I am thanking you now. We are going to "take an international trip one day" and spotlight all the international bloggers. I will let you know when that happens! Thanks again.

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...
