Time for Twitter?

hey fam!
ok i've noticed no one is really posting anything anymore. maybe it's too much time or effort or whatever. just wanted to post an easier/quicker alternative. i joined twitter a while ago and it is super simple and quick to post updates (less than 140 characters) of what you're doing on a day to day basis. my profile name is sevenmir if anyone signs up and wants to follow my 'tweets.'
it's a relatively new social networking idea, so i posted a great video that tells you all about it:

hope to hear from everyone (anyone?) soon!

oh yea, if anyone is interested, this is my personal blog

K & K Wedding





I don't have many pics. But here are a few from the reception. We had such a great time! Andrew, Ric, Cindy & I went to the Monterey Aquairium while most of the gang went golfing on Sat. Look at the expression on Grandma Pete's face as she's trying to dance with Andrew. Now that was funny!!!

Check out Brandon and his "kids"!

a week in norway and sweden





1. stockholm, sweden. this is the view from across the water at our boat hostel.
2. ice bar in stockholm. the whole bar is made out of ice! sponsored by absolut vodka
3. it's about 23 degrees inside ice bar so you get to wear these sweet overcoats and gloves. and the glasses you drink out of are made of ice too.
4. at the edvard munch museum in oslo, norway. 'the scream' is back and restored after being stolen for a couple years.
5. bergen, norway. the second biggest city in norway - this is where we stayed after seeing the fjords.

the parents and i are flying to boulder this weekend! excited to see uncle rolf, move into my apt and start my internship on monday!

A few more pics from Florida
































OK, I know this is alot of photos. Sorry, but I hope you enjoy them. Our friends have a boat and we spent most of our time out on the water, catching lobsters and other sea creatures. Then we'd go back to the house and have a feast. They have a 7 year old son who became Andrew's little brother for the week. They had a great time. Luke followed Andrew around like a puppy and Andrew was very good to him. It was a great family vacation. We're hoping to plan a trip for them to come out here next summer so we can show them all the fun things to do in our neck of the woods. We'd also like to take them to Glacier and Yellowstone.
Love
Lori

haha..look at this picture i found at dad's (lon) house! haha

1 Month to Go


Hey there Peterson Clan...

Let us start by saying that our first post on the blog is far overdue.

That being said... we have loved checking up on all of you guys and seeing what (most) everyone is up to.

Sooo...

1 month is about 30 days, which is about one cycle of the moon, and that is not much time at all.

There is all kinds of things to do with the wedding and we're both so excited that so many of you guys can come down... So hopefully we can you show you all a good time.

And if we have any luck and good medicine, Grandma Pete is gonna grace us with one amazing song and one more on the more humorous side for all of us.

For a bit more info... here's our website.

I've added some pictures that should get us all in the mood too.

One month in waiting,
Kirt & Katherine

Hello From Idaho!!

Hey all! It's been great to follow along with all of the family happenings. Tori, I love your idea about utilizing a calendar. Perhaps we could either switch to the Yahoo group or find a calendar website that allows everyone to post their own important dates. Either way works for me. By the way, Kodi is a doll!

Mandy, congrats on the acceptance to CP+B! What an outstanding school! You'll love Colorado.

Zoe and I have some news of our own...we are expecting our first little one sometime in April! Yes, that's right - the perennial college nerds are finally settling down. Zoe continues to accel in her career at Ada Animal Hospital. I'm currently working for a healthcare services company in Coeur d' Alene, ID, but plan to cut back to part-time and return to Boise at Micron in the Marketing Strategy Group for the time being. We're just finishing the bottom floor of our house and adding plenty of room, so there's no excuse for all of you not to visit. We look forward to what the next 7 months will bring. Tori, any advice?

I'm glad to hear everything is going so well for everyone. Zoe and I look forward to seeing ya'all at Kirt's wedding in October!

Love,

R & Z
