Something old

tannglass
Mom got this from Grandpa a while back.. It used to be in the bathroom of Grandma and Grandpa's house. One blue (Aunties) and this one - with their tootbrushes in. Can you see it's Jiminy Cricket? (Mom didn't notice until now..) It's a bit old and worn and his eyes had fallen off ages ago.

Mom went out and got a whole load of eyes!

Don't you think he looks much better now?

Knitting washcloths..

Mom's been knitting..
...and Virus helping?!
Finished cloth with hearts.
And one with a pawprint..
Mom thought it's pretty cute. As long as she's not washing us we're okay with it, too!

Our May 17th.

Crowded downtown - lots of people dressing up, eating ice cream and singing.



I mostly spent my time sleeping in Mom's lap, though! She was knitting. Will show you the result tomorrow. ;)

Happy Birthday Norway!

Today, May 17th, is our Constitutional Day.



We're mostly relaxing today - with Mom's foot and all. But we're happy to live in a nation where the National Day is celebrated with music and children and games and none of that military parade stuff!


Here's a little video I found on YouTube from last years celebration to give a slight indication of the childrens parade. :)

Hope you all have great, relaxing Sundays!

Silly Saturday

Okay - Mom and Auntie Anna went to a museum and were all silly today. Mom did it all with a limp.. Clumsy as she is she almost fell yesterday - and tried severing her little toe from the foot by putting it on the wrong side of a metal bar (well - wrong side if you want it to go along with the rest of the foot..). It's all nice and swollen and bloody.. But they already had plans, and she couldn't bare the thought of sitting with her leg up ALL day..

She's done some sitting too, though.. So she knitted up something to keep her cell phone (or mp3player) in..


Pink......or red.. Neither turned out perfect, but that's what you get when you make up a pattern as you go. The first one (red) is a bit too wide, while the pink one ain't all that bad but the "flip" part could have been wider (that's what you get for over compensating).

Now they've even got little handles!

So let's see these two grown women at the museum acting all mature:
Uh???



Auntie walking the tight rope.. BOL.. And ignore Mom's gibberish.. (That's Norwegian for ya!)
Now do you think they caused a leak?
Moooom?
(Mom's note: this is an exhibit on the environmen changes and challenges - and as you might guess it's playing on the increasing water levels among other things.)



Mom playing with colour shadows!

Tomorrow is our Constitutional Day so hopefully we'll squeeze in a little celebration (I really just want some ice cream!). We were planning a hike, but no such luck..
