Norway

This is a difficult post to write. It's always a bit hard when something so terrible happens. We're both absolutely horrified by the violence in Norway, and still a bit in shock. We are horrified that one man could have done so much damage, killing 93 people, and injuring 90 more, and in the spirit of political revolution. The fact that those people were targeted, and chosen to make a point, because of their personal political beliefs, or the political beliefs of some people working in a building some victims didn't know is just...there are no words to express how sick we feel at that thought. We are so thankful that this man has been caught, and that he confessed. But the fact that he says that what he did was "atrocious" and "necessary" makes us hope that Norway will be able to punish him for more than their maximum of 21 years in prison. 

Normal posting will resume tomorrow, but, like Annebeth said in her eloquent post, it seems wrong to post smiley outfit pictures for now.

Our hearts, thoughts, and prayers go out to the people of Norway, and especially to those injured or killed, and their families.
