Julaften!

Gledelig jul allesammen! Masse pakker under treet og siste luke i adventskalenderen åpnet - da er vi klar for julaften her hos oss. Julegrøt, hjemmelaget pinnekjøtt og godt selskap! Takket være tante Merethe sang Sølvguttene julen in her i Australia presis klokken fem.





M-A-S-S-E julegaver fikk vi fra fjern og nær! Tusen takk all sammen.





Even Samba had been shopping - here is his to/from card!


Nye pysjamaser fra tante Sissel!


Solbriller fra Hurdal!


Hoodies from the pets

Headphones fra gudfar og gudmor i Arendal!

New Sapmi shoes from Besta & Besten!


Her er alle julegavene til jentene - masse flotte ting - de er veldig heldige jenter! Tusen takk alle sammen: tante Merethe i Stavanger, tante Sissel og Kjetil & Julija i Arendal, Elise i Vanse, Bestefar Torfinn og alle i Hurdal, tante Randi og petter edderkopp på Vestlandet, Besta og Besten som i år feiret sammen med oss, og til Pop, Tassie and grandma Rosemary her i Australia :-)





Jamie Oliver's Adelaide!

Every since she was a tiny tot, Elliot has always loved Jamie Oliver. Whenever he popped up on television, her face would light up in a big smile. If she was unsettled, we would just pop on an episode of his cooking show and she would sit back and listen to his talking about cooking!

Now we can go and visit his restaurant 'Jamie's Italian Adelaide'...such a shame that it was his day off and no Jamie was there to greet and cook for us :-)








Yes, it was y-u-m-m-y! And the kids got a badge for eating all their greens. Elliot made a drawing that they hung up on their wall - she is SO proud!!!

Hello Adelaide!

This Adelaide CBD - isn't it beautiful? 


We decided on a morning on the paddle-boats, and all the black swans greeted us good morning!







This is Fred the pelican!




The cafe in Elder Park is a little oasis away from the hustle and bustle of the main streets.

Milla found this dress that she absolutely l-o-v-e-d...except we haven't got any red carpet appearances scheduled any time soon :-)

Gotta love the PJs at Peter Alexander!



A little rest in the cool breeze before the train home at sunset.

You can see the new glass bridge and cricket stadium in the background.






Goodbye birdies!
