Xmas

Finally, the promised pictures!! Starting off with a present Raymond made for Hilde XD He wrote her name and address on an envelope, and put lots of fake money blended with 5 real notes and wrote the sender as the bank robbers who robbed a bank not too long ago in Norway XD

The notes were very cute too, he put her face on it, spelt 'hundre' as 'hondre' and instead of Norges Bank, he wrote Raymonds Bank if you look closely at the note XD thought it was a really cute idea XD
Of course, the pranking doesnt end there. Guess who got a lovely gift from Raymond and Hilde? Now guess who'll be the one happily using the towel. XD

Got a cool handmade pendent from Raymond, made out of tin. Its a cool dragon with its neck bent in a way so that the chain can go through it. Its a pretty cool gift, and Alex got an amulet which i havent taken a pic of yet. His is a moon with a feather, and the Elven letter for 'S'. Next cool gift! THE WAND OF SEVERUS SNAPE!! YAAAAYYYYY!

Gotta love the details :D

Got a pair of handmade socks from Mary's mother (alex's maternal grandma) which i like very much cuz the colour combination is cool XD got a pair of simple black gloves from her as well, which was very much needed since i left my warm purple ones at Paul's house. Hilde bought Raymond some fun pills, which mess up the taste buds XD What the pills do is turn all sour foods sweet for the next two hours! So me, Alex and Raymond had fun with those. The pic is me and Alex eating some lemons XD with that pill, it tasted GREAT ! it was like eating very sweet oranges. We experimented the taste of other stuff as well. Coke tasted bland, chocolate seemed normal (perhaps we didnt coat the sides of our tongues with the pill) and salt tasted slightly sweetish, abit off. Grapes tasted normal.
Alex got me some pretty nice gifts this year XD The first was a book on how to do photography, master class. Not only does it gives tips on how to take photos, but it also teaches you how to edit them ^^ Its gonna be a good read, and hopefully my photo taking skills will improve alot!

Next, he got me a silver ring with an amethyst stone. Its really quite pretty and Hilde said it was nice. Alex was worried it wouldnt fit, forgetting it could be resized if it couldnt XD But fortunately, it fits and i'm very happy with it.Lastly from him, i got a CARE BEAR! Which is quite funny really, cuz i was telling him i should make him buy me another carebear because the one i left at his house has loose threads coming out due to plays with the cat. This bear will stay in the box though, because its a collector's edition and released in 2002 to mark their 20th anniversary. I got more gifts i didnt take pics of, too lazy. Got a simple plain dress thing or long shirt (cant tell yet, gotta try it on), a woolen jacket, balls of wools + knitting pattern, chocolates, a necklace and cant remember if there's more from mary and robert XD

Then Alex's aunt gave us a nice pair of angels and two figurines. One sleeping and one standing. Alex's grandma and mom was saying the sleeping one was alex , haaaaahahaa. Got accessories from Alex's other aunt... cash from his grandparents( all the 3rd generation kids did i think XD alex, raymond , hilde and me all did at least) , and i cant remember if there's more.

But thats about it, i'll blog again very soon since i have pictures to post!
