Hello again.

I know, I know! I have become a bad blogger. But here is a little news.
Well most weeks goes by fast. I'm working, Søren is working and Christine is in school.
In March the school had its play. They had made plays based on the stories by H.C. Andersen. It was so good, and both teachers and kids had done an amazing job. We loved seeeing Christine on stage, and see how she loved to sing songs. We all had such a good evening :) Christine is loving school, and she is doing such a good job reading. Right now she is very excited about going to 1st grade after the sommer. In the beginning of March Christine and her friend Ida started swimming lessons in Løkken, and she loved it. That is definately something she will do again next season. It is really good for her. And good for her mom to learn how to let go of her little princess ;)
Last Wednesday she started soccer practice, now that her gym/dance practice is done for the season. She thinks that is a lot of fun. Her English is getting pretty poor, but she still understands everything, and is still watching all her American movies. She often talks about everyone in the US and how much she miss' everyone. But guess that is how all three of us feel.
Søren is still working at Pedershaab, and ofcourse at our house at home. Right now Søren and his dad are working outside. They have taken down a lot of trees, and are digging up the roots. Guess at some point it will be looking really good in our driveway :)
I'm working more hours now than I did during fall and winter. But I still love my job, and my boss is just the sweetest. She is so considerable. When I have days off during the week, I normally pick up Christine early, and we enjoy the time together.
Both Søren and I started working out in the gym in Løkken. It is really nice, and I love that I have time for it in the morning, so that my evenings are free.
We are getting warmer weather here in Denmark, and we spend all the good days outside. But I do miss the Iowa summer :)
Like the tradition goes here in our family, Christine has had two Birthday parties. The first one was Saturday April 21st. It was held together with her two cousins. We had the whole family for coffee in the afternoon and hotdogs in the evening. It was so much fun, and all the kids played so well together. The second one was on her actual Birthday. I brought lunch and cake for her class at school, and in the evening we had the closest family over for supper. A great day.
