Our friends/neighbors we visited in Norway came back home this week, after living a year abroad. It sure is nice having them back!
As a thank you for hosting us in their Norway home for a week, we promised a big welcome home party. Turned out there were a host of other people in our neighborhood who wanted to help and do the same for them. It turned out to be quite the shindig! Our backyard was a flurry with natural mom loveliness, children of all ages, little ones in the sand box and big boys running the streets with water guns. And good friends! We grown ups all talked about how amazingly wonderful our little “village” is.
Here’s a few snapshots of our Americana welcome home party for the Zinser 5, complete with a blue grass band and BBQ.
