Kelvin the concert violinist

Kelvin Alexander (9) loves music.

He is learning the reed flute and the violin at school. So far, he can only show us the correct way to hold it. :) 

Emili the pirate

Emili (4) loves pirates and dresses up as one every chance she gets.

Here she is dressed up to go to a Carnival dress-up party at her Pre-School. 

Family portrait time

Finally we took the time to pose for a family portrait. This was our belated attempt to make Christmas cards, in January 2006.

From the back, we have Emili (4), Thomas (7), Kelvin in the middle with toungue out (9), and Lena Natalie in the front (11). Irene and I are parents so we can keep our ages a secret (35 and 30-ish)! ;)

This picture is taken on the staircase of our home in Flateby. The home is now sold, and we have one month to move out and hand the keys over to the new owners. We sold it for just under $300,000 (1,960,000 Norwegian Crowns/Kroner). 

Christmas dinner, 2005

This is my beautiful wife, Irene. We are celebrating Christmas at her parent's house. This was right after we finished eating Chsitmas dinner.

I think she is beautiful here even though she is closing her gorgeous brown eyes. You'll have to use your imagination. Or look at one of her other pictures. :) 

First Blog Ever

I finally got around to setting up my own blogger account. I will either use this or set up a wordPress account to use later. For now, let's see how this goes. :)

The idea is to keep all my (and my family's) long-distance friends up to date with pics and info about our family here in Norway.

Hope it works for you. Drop me a line or post your comments here.

Cheers!
