Celebration in Norway

The first of our wedding celebrations took place last Saturday, April 23 in Oslo, Norway. What a wonderful time we had! It was complete with moose stew (amazingly delicious), yummy cakes, beautiful flowers, musical performances, reunions with dear friends, and memorable times with our family. Here's a quick photo report of some of the fun:


All the family together...




With Tarjei's parents...



With Julianna's parents...



Cutting the cake the "Norwegian way" (civilized with forks)...











Tarjei's brother, Sindre - Our fine Toastmaster for the evening...



With Daniel and Catherine Blomberg from Sweden. Tarjei and I served our missions with Daniel many years ago. It was an absolute treat to have them there!





Tarjei with Jaran (his lifelong friend and Best man)...



The set-up for the evening including napkin lilies and amazing Norwegian cakes...





There was a lot more to the evening, but I was busy not taking pictures...maybe more will come later!
