I have talked so many times in the last few months about our Iceland trip.  As I was getting ready to purchase our airline tickets, we received a call about our home that we still own in Minnesota.  We have tenants and there were some issues – some big issues.  All I heard was insert my money into the toilet and flush.  Homeownership can be stressful, but it’s even worse when you are living across the country.  Thank goodness our dads are willing and able to help us meet with contractors and get things back in order.  Without them, one of us would have been on a flight back home until the matter is resolved.

The Iceland trip… well, that’s being rescheduled.  The same day we got the call about the house was the day that the news broke about the volcano erupting in Iceland.  Crazy how things happen like that.  Now, I’ve heard that the media is exaggerating the situation a little bit, but I’ve made a new hobby out of watching the Live webcam of the Volcano.

We will be keeping our vacation plans this fall close to home and hopefully heading out of the country in the spring.  And we are thinking that maybe owning a home in another state might not be our thing for too much longer.

In other news, the Vikings won this weekend.  I won one fantasy game and lost the other.  I found this picture on the internet and I loved it.

I have to say that the Vikings/Packers rivalry gets pretty heated sometimes, but we know that we haven’t won a championship in a million years.  So many of my best friends are from Wisconsin and I love them no matter what football team they cheer for.  And I think Aaron Rodgers looks like Ellen.
