It's been a hard week. We have tried to get use to being alone without our "live-in grandmum"..... Its hard, I believe we just have to get her back again. If we havn't scared here away of course....? :-) Time will show.

Lisa on dancing class - Buy Bye Dona :-( We will miss you alot

Pizza party with 12 collegues. A great party with pizza on the menu both for main and nighcap! :-) Thanks for coming, we had the first party on the new kitchen, and it worked out very well! :-)

OMG, all these fantastic presents I got, I'm amazed. Special sexy dishwashing gloves with ring etc. etc, apron, hat, salt and pepper shakers, tea and coffee boxes and a Georg Jensen vase.

Jonas 1 år idag!

Hipp hurra for Jonas som blir 1 år idag. Ja tenk ett år er gått siden jeg satt her på jobben og ble oppringt av Atle for at noe var på gang. Jeg gav beskjed til sjefen at jeg måtte avgårde for jeg skulle delta på en fødsel, og vips etter noen timer så var jeg tilbake igjen. Så stolt etter å ha deltatt på tidenes fødsel, en flott gutt kom til verden, Vibeke gjorde ett godt stykke arbeid, jeg fikk klippe navlestrengen, vi lo godt av den "flerkulturelle staben", atle og vibeke ble stolte foreldre, og jeg ble ei stolt tante som fikk min livs opplevelse realisert. Livet e herligt - tiå fyge gitt...... :-)
