Anniversary Cat

In honor of our second anniversary (that’s today!), I present you with the cutest kitten even to grace the Internet: You can thank Imgur/reddit for that.


New Seattle Apartment

I moved in to the new Seattle apartment this weekend. Although there’s not much to it, I wanted to give you a quick peek at it.


Seattle

So, I’m here.  I got in on Monday night.  Will picked me up and we had some food, watched TV, and went to bed.  Will went to work the next day.  I met him at his office and we went to Jimmy John’s for lunch.  After lunch, I wandered around downtown.  I went to Whole […]


Life Update

So, if you don’t follow Will’s blog or are on Facebook, then you’ll want to read this post. Big things are a coming!


Christmas

We had our little family Christmas on Friday. We made ourselves a bit of a German meal, watched a movie, and admired our tree. A tiny tree for a tiny apartment. 😀 After our movie and supper, we opened gifts. We each had a budget and the other person could request something. Joni wanted a […]


Auntie Times Nine

Kari had a baby about two weeks ago.  They named him Emmett Gene Olson.  I got to go into the OR with her.  She originally had it scheduled for December 2nd, but baby wouldn’t wait.  So I drove up from Mankato at short notice and made it with a bit of time to spare.  The […]


It’s been a while.

Unfortunately, […]


A Whole Month

Wow! It’s been a whole month since we’ve updated! Unfortunately, there’s not much to tell. I’m still looking for a job, and Joni is working away at school. Pretty much the only exciting thing that’s happened is that Kari came down over Halloween weekend and spent the day with us playing board games, going to […]


New Ulm Oktoberfest

This past weekend we went to Oktoberfest over in New Ulm with my parents. I forgot to bring my camera, so I don’t have any pictures. My mom didn’t forget to bring her camera, so she has pictures. She’s been sending them around to the family, so I figured I’d just steal that and use […]


Update

So, there has been about 3 weeks of school now. It’s gone by really fast. It’s alright; there are a few challenges, but that’s to be expected. For the most part, they are pretty motivated and interested in German. The other teachers are great. Everyone is ridiculously nice and helpful. The guy I’m replacing went […]
