Stockholm, Stockholm,Stockholm... LOVED it.

I am a HORRIBLE HORRIBLE Blogger. 
I miss my dear blog I really do.... Every once in a while I will pop by...(with the intention of writing something)  & read a couple of old posts... or look at some pictures of the kids...
Makes me sad I don't have the time to blog on a regular basis...

STOCKHOLM was AMAZING-....
I could TOTALLY live in that city...  I have been to Stockholm before but never with a bunch of SWEDES..
Even MORE fun...
During my 2 days in Stockholm... I went to the Corporate Office.... I met the CEO.  I had lunch with the Nordic director... I went to our "concept store" .... was invited to the company SUMMER Party...  with the most amazing VIEW... 

(Managed to pull a few outfits together...
- thank you for all of your help.!)

MY FABULOUS COUNTERPART
 <----     from Bergen...













I went on a tour of the factory... where they make most of the bath products... HEAVEN...








Love the expression on the guy opening the vat.... So proud...





NOTHING Hotter than me in a HAIRNET...  :-)
















Stayed in a fabulous TRENDY hotel... Nordic Light in Stockholm
with the SNOTTIEST staff E V E R ...  . 
The past 6 weeks my life seems to have been going in FAST FORWARD. 
I have seen more of Norway in the past 6 weeks, then I have in 6 YEARS...
I have met so many fabulous people... & I LOVE my job... crazy about my boss & co workers...
thrilled about the challenges... & (most) of the travelling...

Good lord I am using the word FABULOUS way too often aren't I? 
Things are moving along... the family is getting used to mommy be on the road...
 (the home office makes up for the time I have to be away...)

Have I mentioned I am going HOME in 5 short days? 
Back to Kansas City with mama & dad... then off to see my sister & brother & their families...
SOOO EXCITED. 
Hope y'all are having a FAB...(just kidding)
WONDERFUL summer! 
Ours officially started yesterday when the kids FINALLY got out of school.

Hopefully I wll have a bit more time to blog & catch up with y'all during vacation...

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...
