Week 12 - Lyngdal again :-)


Dinner with beef, potatoes etc, jummy! :-)

Atle did a great job bringing out all the water - Jonas and Lisa ready for the pool.

Lisa playing guitar on the way home from the cabin. A cozy weekend is over, and the kids have been in the pool for many hours every day. Its great! :-)

Finally I can use "my car" outside! :-)

Rolling, rolling, rolling :-)

Lisa wanted to sleep in her own cabin in the living room. OK we said, and within 5 minutes she slept :-) After a while we just moved her into her own room, but she was not very happy when she woke up the day after. Why wasn't she on the coach? :-)

Week 11 - Checking out "Erfjord" :-)

Mum and Alf has rented a cabin 2,5 hours by car/ferry from Stavanger. We took a daytrip to check out what they plan to do before they move in :-) The owner pays for the material costs if they do the work. First off all it's mostly painting etc. It was a great place, and I'm sure we will have alot of fun there during summer. They have signed a contract for 5 years, and finally we've got a place to go to near the sea. They will buy a boat, so we can go fishing as well :-)


At the pier - View from the balcony/living room window :-)

The cabin - Need some paint as you can see :-)

Lars and his friend Olav - As you can see, the patio outside the cabin is the pier :-) You can not come closer! :-)

Area around :-)

At Hjelmeland, on the way home :-) Quite a small chair! :-)

Week 10 - Winter holiday - going to the cabin!


Det er vinterferie og Svein Terje og Alf reiser opp onsdagen også kommer mor og meg opp fredagen i 4're tiden. Herlig å være tilbake på hytta igjen. Og ekstra herlig for de som fikk være her så lenge denne gangen :-)

Snø, snø og atter snø :-)

Hyttas hovedattraksjon - Drypping av lys! :-)
Hjelp, det kom litt snø på meg :-) - Rett utforbi hytta

Se hvor flott det er, ungene storkoste seg og det var bånn gass ned bakkene. Uten frykt! ;-)

I skisporet :-)

Skikkelig påskestemning - Hytta på Høgås :-)

Mormor har laget lapper, herlig - Svein Terje spar vekk litt snø :-)

Utsikt fra terrassen, Elvis koser seg oppå snøen på terrassen

Ut på tur aldri sur - den 40 år gamle pulken kom godt til sin rett.

Granddad visited us this week! :-)


Late Sunday evening Lene picked up dad so he could be with us for some days. Unfortunately it was winter holiday here in Norway, so Lene and family went to the mountain. Bad planned, but we forgot about that when we ordered the tickets long time ago. Anyway, we had some nice afternoons from Monday to Thursday. On Tuesday, on Lisas 4th birthday, the kids were home with grandad. It was Lisa's day so she choose what to do the whole day. First they went to the shop and bought 3 icecreams each, and then Lisa choose "komler" for dinner (a norwegian speciality) :-) Everyone were happy. On the evening we made homemade orange juice! :-)

Bubble time :-)

Sun was shining and it felt like springtime :-) The kids played outside with bubbles and enjoyed the great weather.

Mum is still cycling twice a week to work, and Anna and mum goes to carate twice a week and once in a while some spinning. Thats more or less what we get with excersise in our family for the time being :-) + walk the dog of course! :-)
Completely out of of "jogging-mode" :-( Unfortunately
