This weekend is mostly work for me, so it was so nice that MT could spend some hours at his uncle and aunt’s place instead of tagging along with me. We had a special remembrance service at church where we invited the families, that had lost a dear one the …
I celebrated my birthday with family and friends today. And it was such a happy and beautiful day, even though the sun did not shine. It was the people that came that made the day so good. All but one of my extended family could be there. My brother and …
Last Saturday (April 16th) my kid and I + my brother and his family visited The Farm. My mom cooked us dinner (lovely fish dinner) and we spent the most of the afternoon outside in the beautiful spring weather. MT and his two cousins had fun (most of the time) …
I woke up by his little shout of delight. ‘KOAS! Koas.‘ It was his first morning in his new house, in his new country. Everything was new to him, even the language – so he spoke his own; but something made him wake up with a smile. He found a …
I have a verse in the Bible I turn to over and over again. It makes me feel safe in Gods hands; just as MT here was feeling safe hand in hand with his Grandparents. I wish I could put all my worrying to God and let him take care …
So we had a little garden party last Sunday, with my brother + family and my mom and dad. It was so nice to fire the BBQ grill again and be together on one of the few nice, warm and sunny days of August (so far). And MT was so …
We went to a fair on Saturday. It’s called Dyrsku’n (dyr = animal) from the beginning when farm animals (horses, cows etc.) where more important then carousels and cutlery. The fair is local to us and one of the biggest fairs in Norway. We were one of ca. 30000 visitors …
MT has stated practicing his writing skills. We’ve been busy running around meeting people today. Some familiar faces (thanks for dinner SIL! + for candy mom!) and some new faces (nice to meet you new colleagues!). We visited my new office (where I start in October), I’ve been interviewed for …
Today have been a mix max of feelings and time spent with family and friends. We’ve both laughed and cried while we celebrated a woman that was very dear to us and that we got to spend so much quality time with. It was the day of our Grandma’s funeral …
We went to a family party yesterday afternoon. It was nice to be with them and sort of a tradition each summer. We ate barbecue outside and then cakes and coffee inside (since it started raining). In the late evening the rain stopped and the temperature wasn’t that bad so …
Every Easter Day since MT got baptized we have been celebrating the day with family and friends. This year was no exception and we invited our closest family to join us. Photo from the baptism Easter Day 2006. But first I had a little work to do, an Easter service …

It’s been a really long time since we’ve had so many days free in a row. But this weekend we had Saturday, Sunday and Monday all to our selves. After spending Saturday relaxing and doing our things, we went to visit my parents on Sunday early afternoon. It was nice …
In the morning I went for work, I spent most of the day alone there – and it was nice to get to work without much interruptions My mom called to see how we were doing, she told me my dad got sick that morning. I just knew there would …
We spent the day at the farm together with my parents and my brother and his family. We had lots of fun in the snow. Sadly my mom was sick, so not so fun for her; but she still cooked us Sunday Dinner – like all crazy moms do! I …
