Happy New Year to you all!  This year will be a good one, I think.  We - the women - in Norway have a 100 years celebration to attend to.  A 100 year with universal suffrage!  Congratulation to all of us!  Freedom in our own way.
The people in Nordre Osen has always been strong and selfdeterminated.  Long before 1777 - they had an idea that they too should have a church.  They didn't get any help, well nearly any help from The Norwegian Church.  But they did what they had to do - like us, the girls - they build a church - a red church.  And in 1777 the peolpe in Nordre Osen could use their own Church. 

 

Nichlas did decorate our Christmas Tree this year - he likes doing that.  I bought him this one some years ago...

 

 

And of course I have some nisser - here are two...I don't think they are married...)

 

 

 

Have a Splendid and Happy New Year - make yourself some goals, I've made mine...and enjoy...:)

1. December

This will be my Advent Calendar - I'm hoping to write every day until Christmas Eve!  Taking pictures too.
Today I have to do! my wall of IKEA cupboards.  Making myself a place for all my stuff - collected over fifty years. 

 

I hope Nichlas and I can have Christmas dinner here...we'll see!  Last week-end Nichlas and I went to Hadeland Glassverk to get the Christmas feeling.  And we did!  It's a great place for the whole Family.  And I love thees small "nissene"

 

 

Later today I'm going to Actic...getting fit for Christmas and 2013.

 

Have a wonderful 1. Day in Advent...enjoy...!
