Peter Olsen, PE

 

Yes everyone, the title says it all....Peter passed his Professional Engineer License exam with flying colors. I guess all that time away from us at home in order to study was worth it. I am so proud of Peter and the dedication that he had to our family to pass this test the first time. We are so glad we found out in the nick of time, right before vacation. Now we can truly relax on the houseboat. We love you Peter!

-Anne, Andrew, and Beck

Houseboat Training

 


We have been putting the life jackets on the boys daily for about an hour or two to get ready for having to wear them constantly. Sometimes Andrew doesn't even want to take it off.

Numbers

13...that is the place that my team got at our tournament in Reno, that is out of 193 teams I might add. It was amazing and we had tons of fun. We were 1 game from being in the top 8 but we just didn't have enough umph to pull it through. The girls played great and we had a lot of comments about how it is nice to see that Idaho can play volleyball. We placed the highest out of all of the Idaho teams that went to Reno which covered 16, 17, and 18s teams.

7...days ago Peter took his PE exam. It went really well according to him. He says that he would be surprised if he were to not pass. We are so glad it is over and so happy to have him home more often, even though he is now having to be out of town one night a week for a project up in Bellevue, ID.

8...days until our last tourney for club. It is exciting to have it all come to a close. We are hoping to pull out a win and take the entire championship as a 16s team in an 18s division. We will see.

16...days until the first grass tourney of the summer. I am so excited to be able to start it up again. I love playing grass volleyball and I am playing with Heather, the girl I coach with at Caldwell. We should kick some major butt!

Well that is all the numbers for now. Everyone is well and the boys are growing daily.

Forever and a Day

Just like the title states, it has been forever and a day since I last posted, and it may end up being short and sweet for the time being as Beck is in the room crying for attention and wanting to play with the keyboard.

I head out tomorrow for 4 days to Spokane with my volleyball team. Peter and the boys will be staying home in Boise and Peter's parents will be flying in to help watch the boys as Peter cannot afford to take a weekend off from studying for the test.

Speaking of the test, Peter has continued to studying day in and day out for it. He takes it on the 24th of April, which for me (and probably Peter) can't come fast enough. I am so ready for this studying to be over and done with.

We have just been celebrating birthdays and going to volleyball tournaments mostly over the last month or so. My best friend Laura and her boyfriend came to visit 2 weeks ago for the weekend. It was a fun short visit as we had not seen them since Andrew was 2 months old. It was a lot of games of Dominion and Ticket to Ride, as there really is not much to do in Boise in the Winter time.

Well that is it for now, Andrew has now joined in on the cry for attention. We love you and can't wait to see mom and dad in a couple weeks.
