Friday Foto Fiesta..Norwegian Carnival.....It's Friday, It's Friday, Thank Goodness it's Friday!!! YIPPEE!I'm playing Candid Carrie's Friday Foto Fiesta Finish again this week .So after you're done here, go over there and check out who's playing this week!!!


So today was Eva's Carnival at school... I remember while living in Germany carnival was a big deal...for children & adults alike... I think it is only celebrated in the pre schools here...

So the theme today was Jungle.... Eva wanted to be a Cheetah... NOT a Cheetah girl....

(remember, I have a little tom-boy on my hands....)

Um, I was unable to find anything Cheetah-ish, so she agreed to be a LION....

So we show up at school today & OF COURSE... she was the ONLY little girl NOT dressed as a Princess....
Good for her... cause she was the CUTEST darn lion I have ever seen....(my mother says i shouldn't say things like that out loud...good thing it is MY blog....hee hee...)
Hope y'all have a super duper weekend...

What a gorgeous lion! My kids have never turned up to pre-school dressed up as they should. One year, everyone dressed up as Swedish Easter witches while my kids turned up with glitter butterflies on their faces.

She gives me hope that this whole generation of girls won't grow up to hang their collective hat on "Happily Ever After!"

"I am lion, hear me roar!!" She's absolutely beautiful.

Cutest darn lion I've ever seen!!!! :)

Btw, that darn troll posted "wah, wah, boo hoo" on my post about Mr. P and how I was worried things weren't going great. Lemme just tell you. If I could get my hands on those anon commenters. But it's SO weird. You go along thinking all your readers and followers are these happy, lovely loyal people and all of a sudden you get hit with a troll, and you realize that there are some creepy bastards out there too. Oh well. The good ones make up for the bad!!!

I LOVE that she has a mind of her own and follows her own heart. She looks great!

Sorry if I haven't been commenting but for some reason, your page keeps turning into some strange search page. Driving me nuts really. So I will have to enjoy your posts in Reader and comment where I can.

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...
