As stupid as this sounds, I forgot how to get to my blog! I finally had the time to work my way through it. I have missed the time I spent sharing with you.
Christmas was wonderful! We had parties, presents, great food and the wonderful company of good friends and family. I thought I would write about the Nutcracker. I thought it would be nice to give my family a little culture, so I got tickets to the ballet. We went to the Elsinore Theater on the 22ND of Dec. Everyone was looking "pretty" and "excited" about the evening. Three teenagers, grandpa and grandma, and Dan and I. First of all, don't try to save money! Buy the good tickets! We were in the nose bleed section that was also made for midgets. No offense intended, my family is not what you would call delicate. All three of the teens are 6 foot and above and my husband is 6'6". Needless to say we were sitting with our knees hanging into the row in front of us. The people in that row were not to happy. You could see there faces as we were coming in. It look like the people in the coach seats on a airplane when they see us all squeezing in the middle seats!haha. What do they expect? We are Norwegians! Well, Tucker fell asleep and said he had a hard time following the story line. Jordan was bored and picking on the boys. Mackie, who loved it as a child, didn't seem as excited as I had hoped. Grandpa and Grandma are hard of hearing, and my husband couldn't quite get comfortable! Who'd guess! I of course, LOVED IT!!! The music and costumes. People all around us doing the same thing we are. Making traditions. I will do it again next year, get the good seats, and they will laugh about the sqweezefest the year before.
