Happy New Year

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays...(a little belated)


My Holiday was spent between being sick in bed (Christmas Eve & day) & working... Not so much fun

But Bjørn did an awesome job of picking up the slack & made a delicious American-ish Christmas dinner while I was delirious with a fever....
(Yes, he bought another Turkey...we didn't serve the rotten one... : ) )

Santa was very kind the kiddos this year leaving the much wanted Wii...... & Wii Fitness.... (I am volunteering to be a spokeswoman for Nintendo....)

Bjørn & I have been burning off a calories after we put the kids to bed...wink wink...
(boxing & doing the HulaHoop game....)





Being sick & on heavy cold medication was probably a blessing, had I been in my right mind, I would have been very very homesick as my sisters & brother all flew home with their families ,to my mom & dad's .... : ( , there are 8 grandchildren between the ages of 10 & 4 (with another on the way...)
so Christmas at home with all of the kids is always so special..... None the less, we had a very blessed day with the kids thrilled with their gifts.
Tomorrow night we have plans to celebrate 2009 with my American girlfriend & her family...
However, Eva just threw up all over the house, so it may be a sick night home instead... (cross you fingers for us)











I just wanted to wish all of my bloggy friends all over the world a
blessed & safe 2009... HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Hope everyone is well enough for you to go and celebrate. I know what it feels like to be far from home and homesick around the holidays! Feel better!
KCLC said…

And I am glad to hear your feeling mucho better. I myself was sick for almost a month. I have still yet to quit pouring nitequil in my wine glass during dinner time. HAHA! Who am I kidding? Thats the best part of my day!
Lizzie said…

WOW!...sounds like a horribly GOOD time! lol!

Sorry you were sick...did you lose any weight? Hope so...if you have to be sick for the holidays there MUST be some compensation! lol!

Happy New Year to you also!!!
Frizzy said…
Love your pictures! Happy Belated Christmas and Holidays to you too. I sure hope your little one feels better before tomorrow night. No fun to be sick over the holidays as you and she have been. I have a whole new way of looking at turkeys now thanks to your story. LOL!
Robin said…
Merry Christmas to you also.

I could also be a Nitendo spokesperson, I love my Wii Fit.

We spent Christmas playing Guitar Hero World Tour (like Rock Band), we were so busy playing the encores that we were almost late to Grandma's.
Ash said…
Sorry for the sickness. Seems to be rampant around the blogosphere - Mamas pushing themselves too hard.

Wii Fit totally rocks.

Happy New Year!!!

Ooooh! I'm sorry that you were feeling bad over Christmas; I'm glad you're feeling better. BUT, Poor Eva...hopefully it's a fluke (fingers crossed!!).
We've also been playing Wii fit...let's hope those 30 -40 minutes per day pay off ;)

Happy New Years!! I love and miss you tons!!!

What a bummer to be sick on Christmas! Hope you're feeling better. After playing Wii with my nephews at Christmas, I'm regretting that we didn't let my in-laws get us one for Christmas. Maybe next year!
Mammatalk said…
So sorry to hear you were sick. So nice to hear your positive attitude, though. Wishing you a wonderful, healthy 2009!

And, "Americanish"? Love it! Funny!
