They even sent them a christmas card :-)

I found some of my old toys in the ruins of our house!
Bang-bang! Me and Kjetil used to play cowboys and indians

Finding more old stuff in our house...

Great Grandma Elise's house. Looking for little treasures...

This is what her house used to look like

And here she is in her kitchen...

Quite sad that there is nothing left!

Found a little silver spoon and a few other treasures that
I brought back home. I am thinking of making a collage
and framing them.

Our team hard at work cracking the codes...

A gazillion trips back and forth with all our stuff...

Besta and Elliot watching

...bye for now...

...even bringing the little boat...

Agnes and Fritz

My grandma and grandpa made Tyfjord the beautiful place that it was! Our entire family is built on the foundations they made. They were the glue that kept together everyone. In thick and thin. It is not so often that we see each other anymore. Things have changed and without the 'headquarters' and meetingplace of my grandparents home, it is not logistically so easy to maintain traditions. It was really nice to see everyone again!

...many years after both grandma Agnes and grandpa Fritz have passed on, again Tyfjord saw an Agnes and a Fritz! Our little Agnes is named after my grandma, and my cousins little baby boy was named after grandpa Fritz. Here they are :-)

Tyfjord in our hearts!
