Update on the Vikens

We've got lots of news! The kids started at daycare a few weeks ago and just LOVE it! Right now they're going about 3 days a week. I signed them up this past spring thinking that I would try and look for a job this summer, and I GOT A JOB! I'm doing part-time for a large greenhouse right here in town, doing AR, AP, Payroll, Invoicing, applying for work visas for our foreign workers, and more. We're one of the largest distributors in mid- and northern Norway for fresh herbs and spices as well as romaine, green- and red-leafy lettuce. Check it out: www.vikengartneri.no (only in Norwegian, but at least you can see some pics.)
I started on July 23rd, and it's perfect, just 2 days a week and it gives me a nice balance between work and home. The kids are really doing great and getting exposed to different things at daycare, and are really doing well socially. My office is only a mile from my house which is just a huge bonus! Daycare is right on the same road, just halfway to work.
Anyway, thought I'd post a few new videos of the kiddos (suprise, suprise, hehe...)
Here's a funny video of the kids together. Justin won't let go and walk on his own yet, but sometimes Collin tries to help him, and he sure does get around quickly with his little walker. And he obviously just cracks himself up. We love his big little personality, and love watching the two of them interact (not always happily, but interacting and learning about the world, nonetheless!)


And here's a video of my little berry-pickers! They went wild for the wild berries (no pun intended!) and we have lots of them in our freezer for our smoothies, which Justin loved, and he slurps them down quickly with a straw!

And here's just a random video of the kids checking out some of Frosta's finest...when we walk home from the beach, we walk right by the cows, and then a lady's house that owns a ton of rabbits, and then some more cows. Needless to say, it takes us a long time to walk home!
