last ballet class, practice recital

a new beginning

I don't know who follows this blog anymore, but I think there might be some family and friends out there, especially here in the US who'd appreciate just some daily life updates from Norway once in a while after we're there; Lilly and I and eventually Lilly and I and Elle. So I am re-committing to my writing and posting of pictures here. With my credit card points I was able to get a new digital camera that I can bring along to Norway so that Leighton/Elle can keep the one we have here and I can bring the new one to Norway to shoot pictures with and post here.

In case you didn't already see this on Facebook, I got tickets for Lilly and I to fly over to Oslo January 7th. We have a friend picking us up at the airport and can stay in her sister's apartment for the first two weeks while said sister is away. This apartment happens to be in the region of Oslo where it so happens that we have better chances of getting in to a good daycare/preschool, and I have applied for openings there. After our arrival I will have to find us an apartment to live in in that area. And a job. Unless I land one before that. I had a Skype-interview for a job there this morning and it went very well. Crossing fingers.

very brief update

Sorry we haven't posted in a while. It's been busy here. Actually my computer broke, and that kept me off the internet in the evenings. Anne's book launch has kept her occupied and even away for extended periods.

It sounds like some people still check this blog, so perhaps I'll try to post updates more often. Now that Anne got a new laptop and gave me her old laptop, I hope to be more active online again.

I've added a new photo album in the sidebar. Below is short video of Lilly jumping hurdles at a Halloween event hosted by the athletic department and sports teams at one of the local colleges.
