So we left to come over to Sweden this year for hockey. Johnny is playing in the Allsvenskan hockey league! We are very lucky and grateful to be over here this year for many reasons. We got to come here with our friends Evan and Maddison McGrath and their 2 dogs Hulk and Roxie! We have known Evan and Maddison for 3 years now! And I stood up in their wedding last summer as well. So it is so nice to be here in Europe with familiar faces! Another reason is because of the NHL lockout their even more people looking for jobs. Thankfully Johnny signed here in Oskarshamn in May! When we came over here we actually had to stay in Copenhagen Denmark for a week. Now we had a terrible travel experience over here. When we flew from Detroit to Frankfort there was a strike going on. Our flight kept on getting canceled. Finally after almost 4 hours we were on a flight to Copenhagen. When we landed we found out our luggage and dogs were missing. It was such a mess in Frankfort it took about another 3 hours to figure out where they were. We left the airport without anything. We were told to come back at 10 at night there will be 2 out of our 6 pieces of luggage  will be there. We were thinking that it was the dogs well more or less praying it was the dogs, and it was!!!!! So after that I was ok. I had my furry babies so I was good! The next day the luggage arrived! Johnny also had a preseason game there in Copenhagen! He then had to leave with the team after the game to go to an away game for the next day. So Maddison and I just hung out with the dogs in Copenhagen! The boys got home the next day pretty late. We then had to stay in Copenhagen for the 4 days. We finally arrived in Oskarshamn on September 11th. Then hockey season started right away! On September 12th was the home opener. Oskarshamn lost 2-0. The next game was the 15th they won 4-2 Johnny had an asst! The next game was the 19th Oskarshamn won 4-1 Johnny had a goal! the next game was the 21st they lost 3-1. The nest game was the 25th they won 3-2 Johnny had a goal! The 27th they won 7-3! The 29th they won 5-4 Johnny had a big game 2 goals and an asst! Now heading into October. On the 3rd they lost 6-4 Johnny had ans asst. 5th they won 4-2! On the 9th the Vigilante's came!!!!! They went to the away game on the 10th. Oskarshamn won 3-1 Johnny had an asst!  Johnny had a home game on the 12th they lost 2-1. We all hung out that weekend together. We went to a town called Kalmar on Sunday the 14th  It was a pretty cool town, there's a big castle that you can go into. It was really cool! Then on Monday night Oct. 15th Johnny had a road trip. It was weird. He hasn't been on a road trip for so long! He went pretty much up to the North Pole! There was even a little bit of snow on the ground. He had a game up there on Tuesday the 16th, they won 6-5 Johnny had a goal and an asst! He returned on Wednesday night. The Vigilante's went to an island called Gotland while Johnny was away.  They really like the town, it's on the Baltic sea and is known for being a mid evil town! I just hung out here in Oskarshamn with the dogs! On Friday the 19th Johnny had a home game and they won 2-1 ! We didn't do much that weekend. Just hung out! The weather is very hit and miss! Some days its  really nice, some days its just gray, some days it rains, and the other day it snowed! Crazy! So Tuesday the 23rd Johnny had a away game, the Vigilante's also went.  Oskarshamn lost 4-1. On Thursday the 25th they had a home game and they won 3-1 and Johnny had an asst! So today is Friday the 26th and Johnny has left for another small road trip. Oskarshamn has a game tomm vs Mora. He won't be home until like 3 am Sunday morning.So us girls are going to get together and carve pumpkins and get ready for the Halloween party on Sunday! Over here in Sweden they don't really celebrate Halloween so hopefully everyone enjoys their first Halloween party over here! So over all it has been great here in Sweden! Everyone speaks English ! The grocery store has a little bit more variety. Now the money is hard to figure out because it's the Swedish krona which is 6.6 times the American dollar. So I have to do a lot of math. For example 100 Krona is 16 American dollars! I also have a oven this year and 4 stove top burners! This is big because in Italy I only had 2 working stove top burners and no oven. I also have a big fridge and freezer. In Italy I had a mini fridge or my balcony if it was cold enough outside!  So that's all for now and I will try my hardest to better at blogging!
