Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs: October 2011
http://hotnugs.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs. Sunday, October 30, 2011. Crazy Kids and Ordinary Life. I know many of my post are about our adventures here in Europe, but the trips we take and the adventures we have are the bonuses we get for living here while giving up lots of other things like being near family, having a car, all of the conveniences of shopping, having a clothes dryer and so on! Jessica has always been a climber, a good one at that! This little video clip catches one of her other new tricks. We spend ...

Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs: Yellowstone
http://hotnugs.blogspot.com/2013/03/yellowstone.html
Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs. Friday, March 29, 2013. We spent the first day snowmobiling outside the park. The kids had a great time, as did Brian and I! Since we needed 2 and 3 person sleds, we had to rent the biggest and nicest ones available. The second day we took a semi-private coach tour of Yellowstone National Park. We got to see lots of wildlife, a waterfall, some of the hotpots and Old Faithful. We saw lots of dog-sleds while we were snowmobiling. Brian with the girls. Buffalo along the road.

Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs: Jr. Jazz
http://hotnugs.blogspot.com/2013/03/jr-jazz.html
Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs. Saturday, March 30, 2013. Cam and Jess were able to participate in the local Jr. Jazz league this winter. Both seemed quite timid at the beginning, but got more comfortable with their teams as the weeks went by. Overall, I think they enjoyed the comradery with their teammates and the treats after each game didn't hurt! Fun that they were able to play bassketball, do you think they will play in the future?

Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs: December 2011
http://hotnugs.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs. Thursday, December 29, 2011. I Saw Three Ships. Bring a Torch, Jeannette, Isabella. Away in a Manger. Decorating the Christmas Tree. Decorating the Christmas tree is a fond memory from my childhood. I remember sorting through all of the ornaments and picking out "mine" to put on the tree. I see the same memories developing in my kids now! We had to postpone the tree decorating because it took most of the evening just to get the tree into the stand! Cam adding an ornament.

Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs: March 2012
http://hotnugs.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs. Wednesday, March 21, 2012. Don't the girls look cute in all their gear? My little four years-old Rebecca has become a little scientist lately. I remember this stage with the other kids too. When I'm not "monitoring" and it's a little to quiet, I can be sure another experiment is being conducted! Luckily she hasn't conducted any major experiments yet, just your run of the mill marker, pen and stamp mess on beds, clothing and herself. Here she is after the stamp incident.

Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs: Learning to Sail
http://hotnugs.blogspot.com/2013/04/learning-to-sail.html
Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs. Saturday, April 13, 2013. As many of you know, Brian has had a dream of owning a sailboat and sailing around the world for some time. It is always on his brain. He researches every detail required to undertake such an endeavor any chance he gets. As you can imagine, there is a lot involved and so much we don't know, but he has a "master plan"! It also felt like being back in a driver's ed course, only this time for boats. We know lots of sailing jargon now! The catamaran we...

http://hotnugs.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs. Wednesday, February 20, 2013. We all enjoyed being back in the US for Halloween. It's one of my favorite holidays because it is a great excuse to dress up, be silly, go to fun parties and eat lots of candy! We were finally able to attend one of Curt and Meg's amazing Halloween parties. They had carnival tickets to play a variety of games, a coloring contest, prizes and great food. Tuesday, February 19, 2013. Monday, February 11, 2013. After returning from living abroad for ...

Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs: January 2012
http://hotnugs.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs. Saturday, January 28, 2012. For two years Brian was the music teacher for the kids and it was a dreaded weekly event for almost everyone. So this school year the kids are continuing their piano lessons with a "real" teacher. Miss MacNeil is one of the music teacher at the school and the kids are able to have their lessons right after school each week. It's been a fabulous arrangement! Thursday, January 12, 2012. We had a fun little birthday with chocolate milk, donuts and s...

Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs: August 2012
http://hotnugs.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Hot Nugs - AKA The Armstrongs. Tuesday, August 7, 2012. This was our last adventure for our European reign of terror. Scandinavia, specifically Finland, Sweden and Norway seem to be much different from the Eastern European area that we've spent the majority of our time exploring. We started our tour in Helsinki, Finland where we explored the Sea Fortress of Suomenlinna. Having a picnic on the island of Suomenlinna. We checked out the restored submarine from the 1930s; it was pretty small and cramped!
