Christmas Eve 2018

Yule-day came and went pretty much as expected. We had my mom and one brother over for dinner, Finnur was master chef as usual, the kids managed to not go quite crazy, and I think I didn’t land my self in a need-to-finish-at-the-last-minute job like the last two previous times. All in all, a highly lovely yule!

Kids by the tree and the usual avalanche of presents.
The birds got grapes and liver-haggis, which they (and Emma) adore.
Earlier in the day, tensions were held at bay by allowing computer time at a weird time.
Finnur working hard in the kitchen.
Lucky us!

Finnur being a good host.
Bjarki unimpressed by a joke I made.
Emma about to explode from excitement!
The food was scrumptious as always! Huge kudos to Finnur! 🙂
Brother Bear and two kiddos as presents were about to be opened.
Finally, it was time to open presents! Bjarki was very happy with this book. 🙂
Brother Bear is now so old he hardly gets any presents, but at least he got more than none!
Anna happy with a super fluffy sweater-jacket.
Mine, yay! 🙂
My mom.
The tired chef.
Emma playing Santa.
We were busy!
Whoa!
Happy kid.
Bjarki checking out a new headset.
New stuff everywhere!
Taking a moment to look at the new things.
Uhhh, not sure that’s a great idea right now… How about bedtime? 🙂
At the end of the night, three minutes before midnight, and Anna turning 15 years old!
