Christmas 2010




Well here are the best pictures I got for Christmas this year. Some of them are sweet and as always princess pie is adorable. I really love the one with Princesspie and ma Kettle. We started a new tradition this year. Normally we have a traditional Norwegian Christmas. We celebrate on Christmas eve, have a big dinner and fabulous traditional desserts and we are done and can relax on Christmas Day. This year So that PP would continue to believe in Santa, we put a couple of gifts under the tree Christmas morning and her mom put some lipstick on a ball and stuck it to Princesspie's cheek While she was still sleeping. She got up at 5ish and ma Kettle was already up. ma Kettle looks at PP and says what is on your face? I think one of Santa's Reindeer kissed you while Santa was delivering your gifts. Well that was it Princess pie was over the moon In the mirror looking at her kiss then to the window calling Rudolf to return so she could kiss him back. It really made everyone's Christmas

Thanksgiving 2010






We had a lovely holiday. The kettles came out to join us for dinner Princess pie was so excited. The dinner was delicious and as is the tradition of Turkey day we all ate too much. We really only use the dining room for holidays. I think that that makes it festive. My dad, Pa Kettle, is a very even keel kind of guy and not prone to show emotion. However, when I showed him how I had made over the dining room, he looked around the room and gushed, yes I said GUSHED, WOW! This is GREAT!!! The dining room is my second favorite room. After princess pie's bedroom.
