I'm getting a terrase

[Hannamoren]

(I don't know if that is how you spell it) Thought you might join us in my husbands building of our new terrase. This is day 1. Will keep you posted. You can see by the dark cloud that it was time to stop!

Close -- It is "terrace."

Looks nice so far.

OH, that is going to be so nice, Hanna!!! I know you must be excited. We finally got a bbq grill bought while in Dallas this weekend for our Pavillion. It's so big, Ray has to go back with his flat bed trailor to get it to the ranch. I'm ready to start cooking outside again...........do ya'll do that in Norway?

Close -- It is "terrace."

Looks nice so far.I was thinking about that, but in my mind, the ending ACE wouldsound different, if you know what I mean. I just think too much{bawling2}

[Noseypoo]

Just call it a Deck ... that's even less/more confusing {laughc}

[Hannamoren]

I just went out and took a photo of my new deck again, and this is how it looks now. It is 8PM but still a lot of sunlight, so my husband will continue for a while more. I am crossing my fingers it will all be done by the 17.th of May!!!{norway} (Our constitution day.)

[raybeck]

Hanna, that is going to be so nice for you and your family!!! I bet he will get it done on time! It looks beautiful where you live, so green and the trees, love it!!!!

[Justawoman]

I like all those trees around your house Hanna. I love the mountains and the quiet and the trees.

[Hannamoren]

Thank you! It will get much greener, just wait and see. We have a lot of blueberries and Tyttebær(wonder what that is in english) so we pick the whole summer! Last winter there were 3 mooses walking right infront of my kitchen window. Guess who was scared! And we think this remind us of Illinois, since it is so flat.......Bergen, where we use to live, had mountains all around. And with mountains, there is rain...... But we like it here. I am sure it will be very nice when he is done. It is now, 9.30 PM, and still the sun is up!!!{mm} Summer is on its way! I will keep you posted on the deck!

EN: cowberry *http://www.xs4all.nl/~margjos/note.gif*
- lingonberry
(dark red soft fruit, traditionally
used in Danish/Swedish cooking)
- northern mountain-cranberry
- red whortleberry, red cranberry
{hug} We use this a lot. Do you use it at all in your cooking?

[Noseypoo]

I only use it on Thanksgiving for cooking. But Cranberry-juice isn't too bad, a little sour, but not bad.

[Hannamoren]

We use it to roasts mostly. We just mix the berries with sugar and stir for about 45 minutes.(yes, your arms hurt....) Some people(like my husband and kids) loves to have it on their sandwiches.

[Noseypoo]

Hmm ... never had it on a sandwich ...

[Smily_Crystal]

Wow, Congrats, Hanna!

You will get a brand new deck in a few days!

Hope I can be there with so brilliant sunshine even it's 9pm!

[Hannamoren]

My husband has been working, and this is how it looks now. Getting near the end of the project!!!

[Noseypoo]

Nice !!! I love it, looks great {thumbsu}

So it's done! Enjoy it :)

Jepp, and now he are putting down bricks, like a path. And I am done painting the house!!!! Well, the yellow that is. I will see if I can take a photo of it. Thank you for asking!

[Noseypoo]

Before you know it, you won't recognize your own house {toothy}

[Hannamoren]

I know, and it is GREAT! We bought this house 1,5 years ago, and I am sure the other owner would not recogniced it. It feels so much like it it OURS!
