About Me

Oslo, Norway
Welcome to my blog! I am a wife and a Mommy of three. We have 2 daughters, Reagan and Hayden and a son, Grasyon. Here I write about our life happenings and try to capture memories the best I can. I hope this helps keep those close to us, in Texas, Iowa, Illinois, and beyond, a little more up to date while we're away. Enjoy!

Day 6 - Laying by the Pool

The last day of Sisters visit we decided to just lounge by the pool. We had such a busy couple of days that we just want to take it easy. The weather was just beautiful so we took Reagan out to the pool and just laid around. It was nice to not be so busy and just relax!













Day 5 - San Diego Zoo!

Sister LOVES animals so we had to make sure we took her to the zoo. She kept acting like it was for Reagan, but really it was more for her! There were some really funny looking animals, one of our favorites is the guy in the 5th picture that looks like he is laying out in the sun! I have no idea what it is but I crack up every time I look at that picture, so funny! We had really good time and were beat from all the walking!



















Day 4 - San Diego

Sunday morning we woke up and went to church. I had been telling the girls how much I love our church and wanted to take them so they could see what it was like. Of course, they loved it! We have been talking out of the book of Proverbs, to which I need to blog about, and it was nice to get to share that with Sister & Amberly.

After church we ate at lunch at California Pizza Kitchen and had just enough time to squeeze in a quick shopping trip before taking Amberly to the airport to catch her flight.

That night we finally watched TWILIGHT! Sister & I read the book (well I almost finished it ) and had waited to watch the movie together while she was here. She is in LOVE with Edward and has already almost finished the next one New Moon!

What a fun weekend! I love girl weekends! Ready to move back home so we can do it more often!









Day 3 - Santa Monica

We stayed the night in Santa Monica at the Loews hotel which was right on the beach. We had a really nice room with a huge balcony! We had breakfast at this little hole in the wall place called Cora's Coffee Shoppe and it was amazing! I am not big on breakfast, but this place was SO good! We went back to the hotel to get ready for the day and realized they were setting up for the Nickelodeon Choice Awards after party. Unfortunately we didn't see anyone cool, but if we would have stayed Saturday night instead of Friday night we probably would have. They had our floor blocked off for people staying there that night. Rats!

We walked the Santa Monica Promenade, did some more shopping and called it a day. Amberly & Sister definitely spiced up their closets! We had a really good time, it just went by WAY to fast!!
