New car +++

I treated myself to a new car :) Altough my 2003 Nissan X-Trail only had 130,000km (81,000 miles) and was still in good shape, I really wanted something new. I wanted at least the same size, but preferably a little more luggage room. That's not so easy over here as the next size up is a huge bump up in price and anything physically bigger is more difficult on these small roads and in the tiny parking places. So, I went with a similar-sized SUV - a Mitsubishi Outlander. It might have slightly more luggage space, but it also has the possibility to flip up seats 6 & 7 in the very back. Granted, they aren't meant for anyone older than 12 (just not comfortable), but I like the flexibility it gives. Plus, I love the new car smell and all of the gadgets...this car is tripped out :)

I ordered it back in September / October from a dealership in Kvinesdal (a little south of Feda). So, we made a weekend trip to "trade-in" my X-trail for this new Outlander. The color is Cool Silver metallic.

And, as you can see, it is still a winter wonderland here. Cold, cold, cold...

Lexi enjoyed some time on her skiis both Saturday and Sunday

And she spent some cuddly time indoors reading books to "baby Harley"

(Harley has a diaper on)

Lillian is still a sweet, gentle baby (enough said :))

I know that Tim and Lexi are speaking Norwegian, but I LOVE this video clip.... must share
