I love CHICAGO....

One Blog.

More news....? More posting? I think so...

There will no longer be two blogs, but only one! One to hold all the life information we shall share here. We are on the road to getting back to Europe, and with that we want to start to use this site a little more to the potential that was set out from the start.

There is a new section called Missionary Status and here we are going to keep track to our upward run to raising the budget that is set out before us.

This goal is huge! We seriously need the support of our friends and family standing behind us and praying for us. Our brains are now running on creative mode to find ways of raising this support that we need. We hope to send out a letter within the next week or so updating everyone about our status.

Please use the Contact Page and Missionary Contact page to just say hi! :) You have no idea how much it means hearing from all of you. We really miss our friends and family.

Ebay - Wedding Dress

So, Hannah and I figured what good is a dress after a wedding sitting in a room all by itself... well it didn't take long before we decided that a good place for something like that would be
IT
on ebay! It was a no brainer for us why we wouldn't want to keep it. Ever see that movie Schindlers List? The last scene where he looks at his ring or the pen and realizes he could of sold that dally freeing in a way. Both Hannah and I desire such a simple life and our hearts long for the ability to be where ever God would let us be. Whatever that dress sells for will be getting us back to Europe! I think we are trying to look at our lives through a new lens. We know we are blessed. Life is good ;)d

Merry Christmas

Christmas is past now. We had a very nice Christmas here with my family. Nolan did a very good job of keeping up the fireplace and we just had fun cooking and enjoying the atmosphere that Christmas brings. I hope all of your Christmas's were just as great:) It's definitely a time that makes me miss Denmark. I think Denmark celebrates this season in a very special way. Something that has made me see Christmas very different than I had before.

Aside from that I would just like to advice anyone to NOT see the Wicker Man. Nolan and I just watched it and it just leaves you feeling bad and frustrated. The whole movie was so corrupt. I feel awful just thinking about the idea of the movie. So just a little advice to avoid that one. Tomorrow I will be working again and then some Danish family will be here and I am very very excited to see my sisters:):):)

Christmas Season

I realize it's been a very long time since I've written on here. My mom even called to see why. As an answer to prayer I have been working a lot more the last few weeks, almost full time! If you think of it pray that it'll continue in this way, we could use some extra work. By the time I get home and we get dinner down I'm so tired and I'm in the transition of trying to find a new routine with everything.

This weekend there has been lots of down time. Seeing as how I work in a germ infested world, I've managed to get what most of the kids have had for the last several weeks. Something disgusting that is for sure. Now that I'm rested and feeling mostly better aside from the occasional runny nose, tomorrow I will emerge myself again into the snot infested, whinny world of sick kids. It seems inevitable that by this time next weekend if not sooner I will back to this couch feeling miserable again. The only difference will be Christmas will be tomorrow and my family will be here, making it much more enjoyable.

So that is what has been going on in the world of me. Hope all is well. Merry Christmas:)
