Happy Birthday JESUS and a very blessed Christmas to everyone

 

The meaning of Christmas

Gift of gifts



 

The chest of drawers in my bathroom

dressed for Christmas

 

 

We had a snow storm last weekend

glad I`m not a tractor

looks cold...

 

 

 

 

 

We had another snow storm last night

and had to dig out the rabbits house again.

They have heat on iside and are happily warm and cosy...

noone cold or hungry for Christmas

 

 

The edges of the road look like this now,

well over 100cm of snow

and huge drifts in places.

- 5 this morning and the howling wind has died down

making it quite pleasant. My mum and I went for a lovely walk along the road to get a breath of fresh air while the Turkey is roasting. Won`t be goint to church today as the roads are pretty bad after the storm. Got stuck out driving last night and wow was that awful, the road was gone many places and I had to more or less guess where it was. Can`t live here without a 4wd car.

 

We celebrate Julaften in Norway, which is Christmas eve, with parcels and dinner five o`clock.

As I grew up in an English - South African home, I have stockings and Father Christmas coming in the night, Turkey, mince pies, christmas cake as well as all the norwegian traditions. My grandfather was afterall Norwegian :)

We have the best of both worlds so to speak.

 

 

Happy Christmas

God Jul

 

everyone :)!
