We are here!

Well were here! We are now in Heber :) The last days in the car were hard. They were very long, but we made it! I am happy about sleeping in our house. Unpacking box after box.... its kind of boring but you get over it :P

Saturday: We heard there was supposed to be a snow storm in Laramie and it was headed to Heber so we kept driving and we pulled into a Holiday in at like 10 pm in Rocky Springs. Sunday morning we woke up and hopped in the car and pulled into a gas station. We mom went into the gas station the person at the counter asked if we were headed out and mom said yes. Then he said if you were headed west it was a good idea to get going because snow was coming...  Mom hopped in the car again and we drove all the way to heber. When we got to heber, we found Colin at church and got to follow him to his house and get the keys to the house. Once we had the keys we drove to Harvaths. There they offered us Crepes and we ate a little and then had Dave and AJ help us drive to the cabin and unpack the u-haul. We started to get unpacked and then Auntie Mouse, Uncle Brian, and Colin came over with some chicken and then they helped us move the bunk beds to the top level, where Jojo, Erik and Zander sleep. Then Kate and AJ came back up with lunch and we had both Pizza and Chicken :D After we had moved the beds Colin, AM, UB had to go home :( We packed up some more and then Dave, Ben, and Scott came up to help us get some stuff from storage. When mom came home from the storage we hopped in the car and went to eat dinner at the Harvaths.-It turns out the Brother Harvath's (Dave's) moms something new grandpa bills dad :S Life went on and Kate came up and helped us move in my furniture. :) (thank you!) Then we went to bed and didn't wake up untill this morning.
Monday: We woke up and ate then started unpacking again. We filled up the trailer with trash and were headed out when the Meyers stopped by to say hello :D Breanna gave me a list of teachers that i should request and when they had left we left for town. We first went to OLD MILL and registered the little kids there and then we went to the health department to get some vaccination papers. We dropped off the trailer and ordered Chinese food. Then ran to smiths and bought groceries and school supplies and then went and picked up the food. When we got to the house we ate and fixed for school and then put the kids to sleep. Mom ran to Colin and Mandy's house to pick up the bag that we had lost and now we are here

Här har ni det på svenska för er som vill läsa

Första dan: Idag steg jag upp och åkte tåget med pappa, alexander, josephine, och erik till flyggplatsen. Där möte vi mamma och morfar. Sedan sa vi hejdå till morfar och vi gick bort till flyggplanet.... där sa vi hejdå till pappa och sedan så åkte vi i 9 timmar... när vi kom fram så hade de tappat en av väskorna så vi fick ju anmäla det... vi träffade en från kyrkan som hade vår bil och han körde oss till hotellet i buckhead, georgia. :) där somnade alla förutom mamma och jag. vi åt och sedan la vi oss..... det gjorde så att vi hade vänt på dynget :DDD dag var 30 timmar lång :////

Andra dagen: Idag så steg vi opp och åt en riktig amerikanskt fruktost och sedan gick mamma till telefonbolaget och köpte mobiler åt oss :) så nu har jag nummer   :DDDDD sen åkte vi till vårt gammal hus och därifrån åkte vi till en bilfixare... där kollade dem bromsarna. När det var klart så körde mamma mig till några vänner som skulle käka glass med mig :) efter 1 1/2 timmar så gick jag till förrådet för att kolla hur det gick och att hjälpa lasta på det som fick plats. sen var klockan 7 och vi åkte tillbaka till gammal huset för att hälsa på vänner. Där såg vi Jennifer och jag gick till Tai men hon var inte hemma ;((( Sen var klockan väldigt mycket så vi åkte till hotellet... KFC äger!!!!!!





Tredje dagen: Idag så åkte vi till Chattanooga och gick på ett Aquarium.. :) det var ganska kul för man kunde mat fiskar och klappa dom... Det fanns ochså en del av aquariuet som de hade fjärlliar i. Där flög dem runt och de kunde landa på en. Jag så när några var ''föda''. :D Dom var JÄTTE fina. Sen åt vi på en kinesikt resturang och det var väldigt gott. Efter maten gick vi till baka till fiskarna och såg penguiner. De dök och åt och tvättade sig. Sen åkte vi till hotellet i Nashville, Tennesse och nu sitter man här och bloggar :D




Här kommer några bilder från aquariet:

 



Tills vi möts igen :)

Atlanta here we are!!!

This day lasted 30 hours with 9 hours of easy peasy flying. We hurried on the plane and Erik and the siblings behaved beautifully. Really!! Except for that erik spilled water on a lady threw food on the floor and called man next door Pappa... LOL! I went great though. Finally he had enough sitting down and started to climb over the seats while people were exiting the plan but that is to be understood after all that time contained.
Bishop Hunter was so kind to bring us the car and help us get bags into the suburban which seem enormous after a volvo... It is hard to see how we ever fit in it... yeah, that is right. we did not.

After that flight Erik and the kids fell asleep waiting for dinner and I am sure I will pay for it tomorrow but they were sooo tired... I walked over to the nearest Kroger grociery store to buy some food. Did not come home with much since it is hard to carry and I am too tired to think about what goes together.... Good thing there is breakfast tomorrow...... We miss our guys already! Mom only called Hans 4 times today.... John escaped the phone terror by simply not answering.... clever man he is..
Tomorrow is a new day and we are so greatful to be here and together... Good night from a sunny and windy Atlanta...

The Bird that Flew them Home


Here is the bird that flew them home. It was a close call. Cina and her dad, in the car, got to the airport with 10 bags and some carry-ons. I arrived with the four kids after a 3.5 hour train ride. We got to Delta check in after I had gotten my boarding card to Norway. They started to check us in and then said...'Opps...5 bag limit' and I said...'What?" I got the supervisor and explained to him the situation and then he called someone who then said "only if I had paper work would they let the 10 go. I explained that 18 months ago we came over on DAL and had 2 bags each. We were now going home with the same two bags, but on new tickets since the others expired. He called the gentlemen back and they talked away from us for a minute and then the head guy said....after looking at his watch {flight was closing} YES. Phew. Checked...Good Bye hugs to Morfar and off to security and then passport control....20 minutes...can we do it. I looked at Cina and said...'Perfect timing' she said...'You should have taken the earlier train." I knew if we had we would probably be 1000US lighter right now.

They let me through Passpport control and we got to the gate the the supervisor smiled and said 'You made it." Kisses to all..phones still in their bags and off to the races. The second leg of this journey.

The size of the photo is small..but there it it........Atlanta heer they come.

Family Good-Byes








So we took some family photos tonight to have some fun. It is great to see Hans who is taller than Tomas {Aunt's Man} and Emilie who is almost as tall as her mom and Aunt. We had fun with all the family in the picture...no?

So...saying good-bye to Family in Sweden...but Hello to Amerika where we have not been for 2 or so years.

Atlanta - Here They Come





So today was the last day at church in KKrona Gren and so we took some pictures of the family and the kids having some dessert after church since it was the Kids Primary Program today.

It was great. Alexander and JoJo and Erik got to participate and talk about Temples and Eternal Families. It was tough for Cina and the kids to say goodbye.

Tomorrow we are on the 630 train to CPH or Cina and her dad are driving with all the suitcases. They arrive in Altanta on the same day.

The decision to move back has been tough but it is the right decision. We are excited but sad to be apart as I am in Sweden with Hans till the middle of December.
