Iceland, Germany, & Hungary

-
Iceland, Germany, & Hungary... these are a few of the destinations my friends are going for their COMPANY CHRISTMAS party... I told you Norwegians are CRAZY about Christmas & their Christmas Parties.

I am working in the wrong office.

Just kidding... we had a lovely party& overnight at a great hotel on the other side of the Fjord....

Just saying 4 days in Budapest for a Christmas party would KICK BUTT.

Trying to get motivated to make my cookies..clean my house & get clothes ready for Eva's Christmas program tomorrow...
(did I mention baby girl has a SOLO in front of like 100 people?-)

Mmmm hmmmm ... she likes the attention like her momma...but gets her voice from her grandmother.

Bjørn bought me a new camera in Dubai so I can tape her performance..
(he will be out of town yet again..)
So If y'all are nice... I will share a video of her big event...
(I know y'all are holding your breath.)

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

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
