First week of Year 2012

New Year and new opportunities. This weekend the X-mas decoration stuff was packed in boxes to be stacked away until later this year.  Six big boxes!

I have spent several days in my sewing room this week. I can’t show you all off it, a sneak peek have to do.

Looking forward to classes in Nordfjord later this month. I have several models in addition to what you can see out of this photo.

Snow!!

Just look at this! I never imagined we would have snow for Christmas this year. I think it would be proper to say “Enjoy while you can”. According to the weatherman White Christmas will not happen in my area. Minde you, a Miracle could happen..

Christmas spirit

The Christmas spirit is entering our home.  Christmas cookies in the jar and “Fjøsnissen” have done the cookie inspection.

Getting closer to X-mas

This weekend weather has been wet wet wet! Went visiting my mom, and there is always something new happening. She lives on a farm and those who have a bit about farming and animals probably know what I’m getting at. This is the season of cows giving birth. I love the experience of watching new life being born. This time I got to be a humble expatiator to one of the cows giving birth to a rather big calf. Some unfamiliar tools had to be used to secure a happy ending. I was so much caught up in the moment that I forgot all about taking photos.

Anyway, today is the third Sunday of Advent. I have a photo to symbolize that.

Friday fun

Last night dinner party was a lot of fun. I made this center piece for the dining table and just had a ball while doing so.  I love Orchids as you can see. I used two long cake platter, flower decoration equipment, 3 branches from the florist (Orchids, white  flowers and Hydrangea) some Holly leaves from my garden, some branches of Ivy and some Spruce twigs nicked from my neighbors garden ;-)

Enjoy your week end
