introduction

Welcome to our new webpage! You may be wondering, “What’s up with the ‘vitror’ thing?” Well, once we decided to get our own domain, the bigger decision was what name to use. We tossed around using Arntsen since that’s our family’s name, but so many people misspell it that we didn’t want to have to deal with that in our email.

So, for a few days we tossed around many ideas. Then, I decided to try a few phrases that meant something to us and translated them into Norwegian—the Arntsen ancestry. Because our Christian faith is so important to us and we believe that Jesus is Christ, the son of God and that He died and rose and is living today, I typed in “we believe” to the English to Norwegian translator. Out came Vi Tror and that was it! Jon loved it, the girls thought it was cool and I like it too.

So, welcome to our webpage.

Bless God for what you have.  Trust God for what you need.

This is the view of Mt. Rainier from our backyard (zoomed in with the camera of course though).  We have been so blessed to have this view for the past six years.  There is a neighborhood going in behind us so we are thankful for every beautiful sunset!


This is one of my favorite songs that really goes along with our website.  It is a song by Wes King called, I Believe.
