Hanging with the Cuzz Buzzes

While Kristoffer was gone, we spent a couple nights with the Carlson cousins. We had a blast going to the park every day and taking a 3 mile walk around the old houses in Redlands. It was so good to have time to see them...

To England with Love

This Valentine's day was the first in 10 years that Kristoffer and I were apart :( Open Doors was having their annual IT conference in the UK and it just happened to fall right on the week of Valentine's day. After seriously considering joining Kristoffer, we decided that since his meetings went from 7 am to 9 pm that we wouldn't really get to see him much at all anyway....so Eilee and I stayed home. It was definitely the hardest goodbye we've had in a long time since we really spend so much time home together as a family. As we were driving to take Kristoffer to his ride to the airport, he said that he didn't care how hard it was--he was never going to go on a long business trip without his family again. I was so touched... :)

We sent this picture to him on Valentine's day.
