So, my husband is Norwegian. He moved here four years ago. After we had our baby we decided that Norway may be a better environment to raise her in :) we are moving to his hometown just outside of Oslo, very exciting! :)Bobbienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6219435106868288568.post-8808485921160653932012-01-15T18:13:07.334+01:002012-01-15T18:13:07.334+01:00Big adjustment for sure!

I am sure that you will find that there are great things about life here, but I would be lying if I said I didn't miss the beach and the California weather! Especially when I hear that it has been in the 80's the last few weeks!....jealous! My skin hasn't seen the daylight in months and I miss the feeling of sunshine more than I can put into words!!! <br /><br />What is bringing your family to Norway?Jeanette Russohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05799898836166593339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6219435106868288568.post-48156944794192613682012-01-03T04:03:30.210+01:002012-01-03T04:03:30.210+01:00Thanks for your blog.

I need to learn to just turn around, get off and wait for the next train when they are that bad!<br /><br />I haven't seen anyone eating a burger (or really much else for that matter) with their hands, so "anonymous", next time you're out, I would love an invite! Eating with my hands would be a pleasant change once in a while!! :)<br /><br />Happy Holidays to all!!! xoxoJeanette Russohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05799898836166593339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6219435106868288568.post-46483071591926656152011-12-19T05:20:54.981+01:002011-12-19T05:20:54.981+01:00Haha..
