We are slowly moving through the boxes and someday will be able to say we're settled in Washington. Here are a few pics of our house; we are the 2nd from the end. Don't you love our nameplate?? (Hytte is Norwegian for cabin) As a joke, we kept telling the girls we were going to have "Holy Husfelts" on our house; they were appalled that when they came home yesterday, it really was on there!
And isn't God good to give us neighbors who fly their Seminole flag daily??
The girls are adjusting to their schools and activities. Not too surprisingly, Mallory came home yesterday as the student of the month. She doesn't waste time making a good impression. Lydia was selected for student council. Emilie is finally getting her knee back in shape and getting involved with cycling and sports med, and Britain has emerged as our new little soccer player.
I am off to Vancouver, BC, to see my CD, my great friend, Kim, from Norway, this weekend. It will be a much needed reprieve from unpacking boxes.

Glad to see the update. Housing looks fun. Great to have instant friends and neighbors. I miss that.

The girls THANK YOU for the fun dips. They had fun with em. Even when Jesica got a little excited and we were cleaning up blue sugar powder out of the carpet.
