Norway Day 5


Another forecast full of wind and rain did not stop us from hitting more trails and exploring new areas of Lofoten. Besides from the pounding rain and gusting wind, the highlight of the day was seeing the boys hike again so well and enjoy it all in such crazy weather. It was not an easy hike with the trail conditions, vertical feet gained or scrambling up rocks but the boys did it all with lots of laughter and minimal complaints.  Despite not seeing much of the views, it still was a really pretty hike and fun memory all together. 

















Like a kit-kat but with better chocolate
fish in a tube anyone?
feels like 35.  . . august in Norway

Ashley in Amsterdam!!

End of September 2025 — Ashley came to visit us in Amsterdam!! We had the best time. She’s one of my college besties, and it was so fun to host her for a few days before and after our trip to Slovenia together. It was the best to be reunited and just love her to death. 

While she was in Amsterdam, we did all the highlights and just had the sweetest time hanging out. She was even a total champ coming to ballet, helping babysit the kids so we could go on a date, and joining me for all the errands and pickups.

One of the biggest highlights was our castle day. We visited De Haar Castle in Utrecht (my first time!), and it was absolutely stunning. We also explored Muiderslot, which is always such a classic. Beyond that, we squeezed in a stroopwafel-making class, a boat ride, a cheese farm visit, and of course we had to see a windmill.

I’m super grateful for our time together and for her making the effort to come spend time with us and also serve us! I LOVE YOU ASH-A-ROO! Buckle up, lots of sweeet Slovenia post coming, eventually.
