Lovely pictures!
Does anyone have the one with MM in her evening dress in the garden with Haakon in HQ?

Also, does anyone know if it has been mentioned if they are having a celebration for their birthdays?

Thank you, beautiful pictures!! I especially love the first one and the ones on the window. And of course the family pictures, great to see them all together, also Marius

Here are bigger versions of some of the pictures http://www.vg.no/bildespesial/spesial.php?id=10451

About a birthday party, I posted some while ago about it, maybe it can be moved to this thread http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums...ml#post1551580
It seems there will be a party on July 20 at Skaugum.

(Then maybe this post about the stamps can be moved here too http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums...ml#post1561912)

HAAKON.....The older the hotter. Never tired of him.

In connection with the 40th anniversary Crown Prince Haakon has lined up in an exclusive interview with Hans Olav Brenner. This will be shown on NRK at his actual birthday, July 20.

Wonderful pics. Haakon is still incredibly hot and Marius is following his footsteps

Beautiful family!!! Haakon will be eternily hot and I agree Marius is following his footsteps, he's already as tall as them, ohhh, I wish he ends up with some heir princess, because it would be a waste (Of course as long as he chooses a girl he loves, I'll be happy and will be not a waste for him, but...I'm sure someone understand what I was trying to say

)

Lovely photos, thank you all for posting. Marius is so tall now and Ingrid Alexandra and Sverre Magnus look sweet. Haakon is very good looking!

fairy tale · #16 06-30-2013, 12:35 PM

In the pictures, Ingrid Alexandra is wearing a necklace, that CP Mette-Marit has been seen wearing as well. But the heart pendant is actually a gift from Queen Sonja to Ingrid Alexandra for her baptism. Queen Sonja got it from King Harald at the birth of Haakon in 1973.

good HQ pictures in the article

Article from tv2.no on the cost of security for the birthday and here is another article

This article mentions that some friends of the CP couple demand high security levels, can we guess that some of them are royalty?

I've posted it before, also a link in this thread, but none has read it it seems

I think some Royal friends are coming, therefore the high security (costs)...

There is a request of the police in Asker and Bærum regarding the establishment of a temporary restricted area over Skaugum from Friday July 19, 2013 from 08:00 to Monday July 22, 2013 at 16:00 local time, as "the event will house many international royalty"

Bishop Gunnar will lead the service.

I can imagine that WA and Maxima will be there, maybe also Prince Constantijn and Laurentien (MM and Haakon was also there at their birthsdayparties), sure that Victoria and Daniel, maybe Frederick and Mary, Pavlos and Marie-Chantal, Princess Rosario... It can be that also Gwyneth Paltrow will be there... They have a lot of friends, famous, not famous but rich... It will be a huge party, I hope we will see some photos.
