2012!

Dear Amelia -
To say we had fun at the Newfield's wedding would be an understatement. We even had fun in the day before and a few days after!


On Thursday, Jaxy and Pam went the wedding rehearsal and we picked up Jackson before the dinner started for a sleepover. In the morning, you guys dressed up in your new dress up clothes!
Jackson looks like Elton John...

 Mr Stephens' came over in the afternoon and you guys played for a bit before we headed to the wedding.

I'm waiting for Cookie to post pictures of the actual wedding so I will follow up with those. You were a champ and stayed up until midnight!

Mr Stephens' left the Newfields reception to head to your Great Uncle Johnny's wedding reception. 

 The next day, we slept until 10am!!! We all obviously needed some sleep. You and I both took a nice nap as well. Jaxy came over around 5 for another sleepover so aunty Pam could go out for NYE.

 On Sunday (Happy 2012,) Daddy, Cookie, Uncle Aldo, Sondre, Knut, Kristopher and Torstein went to the Vikings game! 3 of the Norwegian's scored tickets to sit ON THE FIELD!!! Torstein (or Shorestein as you call him) suffers from Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA.) He has to be one of the most amazing people I have ever met. You forget quickly that he is disabled. He is smart, funny and extremely nice. We played a trivia game with him after the game on Sunday and he came in 2nd place (behind his little brother - Dre.) I will consider him my first famous friend...this year in Norway they had a documentary about him traveling in the US. He has promised that when he makes it big, he will introduce me to our fav - Kelly Clarkson :)

Unfortunately, the Norwegians departed America tonight; Pam and Jackson left yesterday. It was so fun to have them around over the Holidays!

Love,
Mom
