Hoose and Funnels

Welp, my photos all uploaded in reverse order, so here we go backwards! 

We (Nils and I) just got home tonight from Orlando, where we attended Funnel Hacking Live. We've had friends in the YouTube world telling us for awhile now to learn about click funnels and attend this event, so we did. It was 4 very full days and nights. Tons of speakers and information given, lots of motivational stuff, networking late into the night and learning from others. We're a little overwhelmed with how to get started, but are excited to try! 

The best surprise ever- we were upgraded to Comfort Plus for no apparent reason on our flight home today. How glorious was all this leg room?! Extra snacks and drinks, and we got to smell the 1st class people's food... but that leg room. Yeah, baby. 


This hotel/conference center was just massive. We've never been to something like this before. It was nuts. 


Our good friend Cathy, who told us to go, was a speaker and she did awesome! 

We accidentally went to Disney World last night for dinner. We needed a change of pace from the hotel offerings, so looked up places to eat near us. Low and behold, it took us to Downtown Disney in Orlando. We were there for about an hour- enough time to get some grub, some ice cream and a Sprinkles cupcake. 


Back at the ranch: Ava falling asleep watching something- her hand didn't move when the phone was removed. 


Nils drove down to Vegas for a day with a friend for a solar convention- a sponsor had a product there and it worked out. 

Another sponsored video. We hate sponsors, but sometimes it's worth it.

Guess what's coming to town?? Guess who's the most excited person ever?? (It's Nils)

Guess what's almost done?? The hoose!! Guess who's a little scared?? (It's us)






Aani went to homecoming earlier in the month. They went to an escape room/obstacle course a couple of days before the dance for their day date. Aani fell and broke her foot, which was a whole adventure. She gets to wear the boot for another 3 weeks or so. Quite a memory. 




Anders is looking for work, still. It's been pretty discouraging. The software world is rough at the moment. Addie is finishing up her schooling in the next couple of months and then we'll see what types of jobs are available to her. Meanwhile she's working at the indoor pool. She doesn't like the indoor pool at all. LOVES the outdoor pool that's open for 2 1/2 months a year, though. Aani is working at McDonald's and Yonutz so she can earn the dollars for all the things. Ava doesn't have a job yet because she's 13, but she's been doing tennis this month, and is in jazz band this year, which is early in the morning. Some days are pretty long for her. 

The adventures continue! If you have room in your prayers, Anders could use them for help in finding work. Fankth!
