We’ve flown through another beautiful week here in Germany. The weather has continued to be sunny and in the low 70s. I don’t know how we’ve been so lucky to have a month of almost perfect weather, but I’m sure that means we’ll have to pay for it double later. We were so busy withContinue reading “Week 227: September Continues!”

Week 225: Wine Fest Season!
It’s the first full week of September, so that means we are heading straight into wine season, but first, we had to get through the week! We had a hard time getting things back into gear after our trip to Portugal and only a short night’s rest before returning to work and school on Tuesday,Continue reading “Week 225: Wine Fest Season!”
Week 221: Back in Deutschland
I arrived back in Germany on Monday morning. It was going to be a quick and boring week! Matt picked me up from the airport and took me home, where I slept for the rest of the day. I had barely gotten any sleep during either of my flights and I was exhausted! I wokeContinue reading “Week 221: Back in Deutschland”
Week 209: Halfway Through May
After our Mother’s Day marathon last week, we had a low-key week at home. The weekend came really fast! This weekend, Ryan was to attend his induction into the Order of the Arrow, which is kind of like an Honor Society for Boy Scouts. You have to be nominated by your peers and leader andContinue reading “Week 209: Halfway Through May”
Week 207: My Birthday Week!
We had a pretty typical week at home, with my birthday right in the middle, breaking up things. Tuesday night, Ryan was promoted again (yes, again) in Civil Air Patrol. It almost seems like he’s ranking up every month, even though I know that’s impossible. He’s now a Cadet Technical Sergeant, and I got toContinue reading “Week 207: My Birthday Week!”
Week 206: Junior Prom
It’s been another cold week in Stuttgart! Not only did the temperatures drop again this week to the 40s, but our boiler broke again, and we had no hot water. Thankfully, this happened the day after our guests departed and not while they were there. However, I have learned my lesson about talking about theContinue reading “Week 206: Junior Prom”
Week 205: Springfest
We had some very special visitors last week! On Tuesday, my cousin Bonnie was the first to arrive. She let herself in, and we finally reunited after I returned home from work in the early afternoon. When I got home, our first stop was Herrenberg, where the softball team was having a scrimmage. After seeingContinue reading “Week 205: Springfest”
Weeks 201 and 202: Still March!
It’s still March, but it feels like the longest month ever. Outside of our usual activities, we haven’t done much noteworthy, so I’m combining the last two weeks of March into one post. Everyone’s been super busy with their work, school, and activities. Over the first weekend, the kids had another doubleheader against Kaiserslautern. MattContinue reading “Weeks 201 and 202: Still March!”
Weeks 198 and 199: March is Finally Here!
We have made it through another two weeks! I’m behind on posting, mainly because work has been so busy, and we’ve been running around every evening between countless activities. Life’s been stressful, but we are getting on with it! It’s still early in March, but in the first week, we were treated to beautiful SpringContinue reading “Weeks 198 and 199: March is Finally Here!”
Week 194: Matt’s 40th Birthday!
This week, we continued our visit with Kathy and Elsie! On Monday, we drove to Strasbourg, France. Some of our other previous neighbors, Susan and her daughter Tori, who now live in another part of Germany, drove down to meet us. The girls all started elementary school together and it’s so cool we get toContinue reading “Week 194: Matt’s 40th Birthday!”
