Dance, baby, dance!

Thursday night at my favorite club in Oslo, the oh so wonderful Kleerup got on stage and played the soundtrack of a sweaty dance party. It was just the kind of Blå (blue) party I always look forward to coming home to, and Kleerup helped sweeten the deal for a couple of hours. Afterwords DJ Ayres took over and kept the party going until the wee hours of the Oslo night. I had a quick talk with him and he turned out to be from Park Slope,Brooklyn...A little bit of BK always helps brighten up the day. So we kept going and going...and since there were no tables to dance on, I found out that a tall bar chair does the trick! I almost wanted to move into the club and keep the party going...then I remembered what I was walking out to. Oh beautiful Oslo.

Fashion Awards 09

I was invited to the opening show of Oslo Fashion Week and as usual it started with the award ceremony for designer of the year, this year handed out by Bjørn Bruun himself (model-acto-photographer turned founder and head designer of Bruuns Bazaar). The show had very few highlights actually (ballerinas!! little ones!!) and don't get me started on the goodie bags we received (shoe polish and water? seriously?), but it gave me the opportunity to finally step into the new Opera house in Oslo. It was too crowded to really take good pics, but you get the idea I think. You can also scoot away to the contractors official website to view more pics. The entire building is beautiful and extremely well designed (the lines, the lines!). During the summer season, they open the roof up for people to walk on (click play to see the movie showing everything off)!

Happy Love-day!

Today I hope you'll click your way to one of my favorite sites, Le Love, and gander at what love, lust, sex, romance and everything in between looks like.

Happy blogday!

One year ago to the day, behavior as displayed below made us the proud parents of a wonderful li'l blog. It's been a challenging year full of discussions on who has to get up in the middle of the night to change the settings, nap time versus play time, what to feed our blog and of course how to feed it...But it has also been a year of bonding over our blog's first laughter, sharing the daily tasks of raising it to become an educated, multi cultural, enlightened and mostly well behaved little blog. We are really proud parents of this little thing we created together and hope you all will continue to follow it's development and milestones.

Climb every mountain

Weekend. Mountains. Cabin. Beer. Candle light. Snow. Good conversations. Ski. Walks. Frozen water pipes. Wine. Snow. Fire place. Magazines galore. Comfy comforters. Way below zero temperatures. Snow. Food. Yummy food. Music. Altitude. Air. Snow. 

Between the hours 9am-7pm, beware of sheep.

(snow angel for Stephanie)

(beer in candle light)

That's one of the official logos of the Winter Olympic Games in '94 behind Lisa. It's a man carrying a torch. They cut down a lot of trees to make it, and they still maintain it, 15 years later. Wouldn't you want someone to do that with your logo? 

(literally snowed in)

(made our own path to the cabin. knee deep in snow.)

(that's a lot of trees)

(trees. trees. trees. my view for 3 straight days...ah, breath.)
