Newlywed Life

Russ and I have now been married for 4 months!! It has gone really fast and we decided that the best way to keep our families in New Zealand, Norway and all over the States up to date, would be to start a blog. Our wedding was everything we could have imagined and we were blessed to be surrounded by such a great group of family and friends. After a relaxing and much needed honeymoon cruise to Alaska, we have settled into our new place in Sammamish. I am teaching my third year of 2nd grade at Samantha Smith and I absolutely love it. Russ just finished a job erecting the second building for the new Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation downtown Seattle. He is now beginning the steel erection for Amazon.com's new building. It's been great living together...no more long drives through traffic to see each other. We usually try to hit the gym when we get off work and then make dinner together....well, I make dinner but Russ usually helps with the dishes. Stay posted for more updates. I will try and be consistent!
