Progress

Kevin and I have accomplished a lot this week! We bought a house, we bought 2 cars (I am now the proud owner of a red VW Beetle--meep, meep!), we measured our new yard and ordered fencing so that the crazy dogs can be contained, we measured our new house and picked out tiles for the floors, and best of all, we got to spend lots of time with our friends. This past week has really reinforced our decision to relocate back to the U.S.--we have missed our friends so much and can't wait to live so close again. Tomorrow, we fly back to Norway. I need to come up with a plan to see some more of the country in the 2 months we have left. I hope we can still fit in a trip to the southern coast and I would love to do some hiking in the mountains this fall. Also, I don't think the "Norwegian Experience" is complete without a trek across the Swedish border to buy cheap groceries and liquor...maybe that should be next on our agenda!
