stateside

Family. Food. Lots of food. Discovering new cities. Visiting old favorites. And the Dave Matthews Band. All things good for the soul.

Boston:


This city makes everyone jump for joy.

This picture is proof that little boys may grow up, but will always be stinking cute.
Thank you for your hospitality and the loads of good food! Love to you all! See you in Copenhagen!

Philadelphia:
The purpose of this trip was to see our incredibly talented cousin tie the knot with his also incredibly talented and beautiful wife. The weekend began with a Mehndi celebration, ended with yummy eats from the Reading Terminal, and had some pretty cool historical sites sprinkled in between.

Rocky!
He travels like a pro.
Austin:
I had many, many, many reasons to fly down to Texas before going back to Norway. But, I can't lie. Dave was high on the list. I tried to explain to Matt that yearly DMB concerts is a bonding thing between my sister & I. He said, "Let me get this straight. You guys talk almost daily, yet some how become unbound throughout the year?" Mmm hmm. That is correct.

Home:
If I've learned anything from this overseas move, it is that change, while not always easy, is good and necessary in life. 

My family ended a blessed twenty year run on Craigway. I am so happy that the timing of this trip allowed me to say goodbye to the house that will always come to mind when I think of home.
Bye, house. Thanks for taking care of us. 
And back home to Oslo:
I left Oslo in a jacket and scarf. I came back to a 70°F beautiful sunny sky. Our first Norwegian summer is off to a great start!
