Easter week was very quiet in our mission.
Norwegians either take the week off and travel to their mountain cabins or travel abroad. Most restaurants and stores are closed from Thursday before Easter until the Tuesday after. It was a wonderful opportunity to enjoy time with our family and missionaries. We had a pizza party with the Brostrom’s and Lemon’s on Friday night. Saturday morning the missionaries who live near us came over for cinnamon rolls and interviews.
We love music…the missionaries usually sing for food! It’s a Win-Win!
And….We had visitors from Idaho! Our son Geoff and his wife Aleena came for 2 1/2 days!
We visited Vigeland Park in central Oslo – cold and rainy, but still beautiful!
A walk to the fjord….cold!
Sunday dinner with some of the Oslo District…
Singing “Armies of Helaman” in Norwegian for our guests!
and…the mission song…with President Hill at the piano.
The sisters missionaries, our daughter in law Aleena, and Whitney Jensen (she is a YSA who just moved to Oslo to dance and she is also the niece of our good friends in Orem…small world)!!
As we celebrate the Easter Season we are reminded that it is because of Him that we can be a family forever. It was a perfect weekend in Norway with those we love.
