We had the most AMAZING trip to Norway.  Honestly, it’s been hard to adjust back to real life.Screen Shot 2015-07-20 at 12.42.34 PMWe spent two weeks on a cruise ship visiting so many beautiful cities along the coastline.

The weather was anywhere from -5 degrees to 75 degrees throughout our trip– but my packing strategy went off without a hitch!

After two weeks on the ship, we spent another week with family in Hvasser.  I could live here.Screen Shot 2015-07-20 at 12.45.33 PM Screen Shot 2015-07-20 at 12.45.41 PMWe truly had the trip of a lifetime.  Of course, only half of our family was there- so as you can imagine, after three weeks I was happy to get back to Lou and Michael (and the furry girls.)
