Johnika in Sweden: March 2009
http://johnikainsweden.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 25, 2009. Today is waffle day in Sweden. Seriously. Swedes love celebrating food. Waffles preferably served with homemade jam and whipped cream. Yummy! Sunday, March 22, 2009. It is getting near Easter season and the kids at church today had a lesson about the last supper. Jake drew his version of Jesus. It reminded us of this verse:. He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. Isaiah 53:2. Saturday, March 21, 2009. Our last vaca...

Johnika in Sweden: October 2008
http://johnikainsweden.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 23, 2008. Don't forget to vote. It's election season. We feel it even on this side of the world. And like you we are probably feeling a little election season fatique. I'm not the political type, but somebody asked me to consider something very important. Make sure you vote, and vote often. Or turn off the tv and radio, unplug the phone, don't go to the mailbox.) :). Monday, October 20, 2008. Thursday, October 16, 2008. Friday, October 10, 2008. Training wheels back on.

Johnika in Sweden: April 2009
http://johnikainsweden.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 13, 2009. 16 l / 16V combi. Under 6500 kil. It's. Best offer. Go. For Almost a shame. Tuesday, April 07, 2009. Margaret had the idea we make trolls and plant them in the forest after seeing last fall's post. We thought it was a fun idea to commemorate our stay in Sweden. We hiked down to the rock beach and fetched us some stones and painted them on a fine spring afternoon. The idea got a lot more traction than we thought it would. And can roam through the woods and find this:.

this, that and the brothers: January 2013
http://thisthatandthebrothers.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
This, that and the brothers. Our family life together, where ever we may be. Wednesday, January 16, 2013. Sam celebrated "Christmas around the world" with his classmates. Look for the Viking horns. On a visit the the Cincinnati Museum Center, the boys rediscovered great hiding places in the "woods.". Snow fall outside our house. It started falling Christmas night and accumulated enough to go sled riding at least twice. Those pics are on Mon's phone. Boys got to hang out with our old friend Adam. Our loca...

Johnika in Sweden: November 2008
http://johnikainsweden.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 30, 2008. English as a second language? Jake is starting to dream in Swedish. I woke him up the other night and he just kept saying, 'Nej! He told me in the morning we has having a dream but he forgot what the dream was about. But then sometimes in both languages the past tense verb is different than the present tense verb all together, i.e., I run. I ran. Dad's been hearing a lot of I 'runded' and I 'swamded.' I know the guys are young and they might just be making rookie mistakes e...

Johnika in Sweden: are we there yet?
http://johnikainsweden.blogspot.com/2009/06/are-we-there-yet.html
Saturday, June 06, 2009. Are we there yet? Seems that title has been used before in our blog. Maybe just the sentiment. Been a crazy last couple weeks with the lead up to the journey back to the U.S. and now, on the U.S. side after being here two weeks, trying to get resettled and back into 'normal' life again. An update is coming soon. Promise. We are on borrowed internet at the moment. Hey I have your kiddos. your supposed to be moving, and your posting a blog! Thanks Dwight. Ill keep it in mind. Ameri...

Johnika in Sweden: September 2008
http://johnikainsweden.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 30, 2008. Digging in the dirt. The local electric company is burying cables underground. Needless to say there's been a log of digging and machinery and negotiating the roadways. Mormor has figured out the work crews are working extra long days so they can take Fridays off. I heard it proposed in Cincinnati that the electric company there bury the cables especially after Ike came through. That will be one huge project. Fall clean up day. The day was topped off with a big kettle of hotd...

Johnika in Sweden: February 2009
http://johnikainsweden.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 28, 2009. Come to think of it they mostly sold a lot of Swedish goods. And Danish. And Italian. And Thai and British and German and Middle Eastern and Greek and.you get the point. There's no reasoning to it. Did the stores sell Head and Shoulders and Coke and Pepsi and other items? Yep Did the fire bombers touch any McDonalds or Pizza Huts or Burger Kings or Ford or Chevrolet or Harley Davidson dealerships or any clearly American targets? Yep Do we still feel. The attacks now a days do...

This, that and the brothers. Our family life together, where ever we may be. Tuesday, July 23, 2013. Football practice starts next week. Probably time to fill in some of the details of the last couple months. These are some of our summer 2013 pictures. Biking the Little Miami Bike Trail with the boys. Finally getting around to putting our Stockholm puzzle together. Watching ten guys push a solar airplane around Lunken Airport as it made a journey from one coast to the other. Pictures of Blue Ash in the 1...
