Weekly Wrap-up: Emily's Visit and 17 Mai

This past weekend my friend Emily came to visit from Aberdeen. She's been to Stavanger numerous times before and was happy to have a relaxing weekend just catching up and visiting. We stayed up Friday night chatting and enjoyed a relaxing Saturday morning before heading downtown.

We spent time shopping, playing, and having a lunch before heading home. That evening we grilled reindeer and whale steaks for a delicious meal!

Sunday was the Norwegian Constitution Day. We headed downtown for the big Children's parade before heading back to Tananger for games at the stadium right by our house. Madi got a life-sized doggie balloon and her first sucker - both of which she loved!!

It was a fabulous weekend and I'm so glad Emily could come visit us and join us for the celebrations! It was great to see her and have her help!!

And just for a blast from the past... here's a couple comparison pictures from our 17 Mai celebration last year! I can't believe how much Madi has grown!
