17th of May

Congratulations everyone! Today is Norway's constitution day and we have the whole day off!
Its a very big day here, and we celebrate with children's parades, good food, friends and family!
Im kicking it of with a big champagne breakfast with friends (nothing beats it)!




Me and one of my best friends in out national costumes (yes, we all (almost all) wear them).
They are handmade, I got mine for my confirmation (as did most of my friends). I only wear it once or twice a year, and it makes it that more special! (even thought its heavy, itchy and totally unpractical) :)

Im wishing you all a very happy 17th of May! YAY!
