The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other. ~Burton Hillis

The big new of the week is that Maja and Jason arrived in the fjord and the tree was lit on the town square...

 Olga and mum heading down towards the tree celebration... it was a very cold day.  My toes were totally numb by the time I came home.
 Our Mayor Ásta Pálmadóttir doing the speech thing before turning the tree on.
 Not the best of photos of any of them....but the next one makes up for it...
 Such lovely people.
 Most of the town turned out for it - which was nice.... this is my cousin Þórdís wearing the most amazing hat... seal and fox - bought in Greenland... so nice, so warm.
 After the tree thing we had a roast lamb dinner at mine... so nice... Freyja so happy being pampered.
 Henry was ofcourse the centre of attention - such a sweetie.
 Love him to bits.
 Shoulda done something about the red eye... oh well.... his cuteness makes up for it.

 Tonight we had cod for dinner and again I was lucky enough to have them all over.... Henry getting all readied up to go home!
 Is he not the cutest thing ever.
Yep, this post was for my sister... I know she misses not being here with him....
