Another week has flown by! My parents are still visiting and have been staying busy, going on lots of long walks through town. One day, Matt took them into downtown Stuttgart and they rode the double decker tourist bus. Tuesday was my first day back in the office since covid! It was actually great toContinue reading “Week 52: Garmisch”

Week 51: More of My Parents’ Visit
We have had another non-stop week! It started on Monday when our new Peloton was delivered. We have been on it almost every day so far! My parents have been staying busy, walking all over town and going out to lunch in our village. The weather was rainy in the evenings, but Thursday we tookContinue reading “Week 51: More of My Parents’ Visit”
Week 50: My Parents Are Here!
My parents arrived for their first visit to Germany on Wednesday. We picked them up from Frankfurt Airport and we have been non-stop ever since! After they got a nap, we had dinner at our favorite restaurant in town, the Seegärtle and it was awesome, as usual. On Thursday, we let them take it easy,Continue reading “Week 50: My Parents Are Here!”
Week 48: Easter in Budapest
This week was a special week for Brooklyn; she had her eighth grade dance! She wore her beautiful, red dress that we shopped and shopped all over Stuttgart for last weekend. She met with some friends to finish getting ready, and they all went to the dance together. Brooklyn said it was an awesome night.Continue reading “Week 48: Easter in Budapest”
Week 46: Spring Break Part Deux
On Monday, we started the second leg of our Spring Break trip in France. We drove along the northern coast of Belgium and into France. This region of France, called Hauts-de-France, is one that we’ve never been to before and didn’t know much about. Well, this region didn’t look like any pictures of France weContinue reading “Week 46: Spring Break Part Deux”
Week 45: Spring Break Part 1
Our week started out pretty busy. It was the last week of the third quarter for the school year and we spent every free moment in the evenings trying to help the kids complete projects and final assignments. Thursday was officially the last day of the quarter and we cannot wait for a fresh startContinue reading “Week 45: Spring Break Part 1”
Week 43: Nuremberg
Another late and quick update! Last weekend, we finally made it to another city on our short list: Nuremberg. The kids had a long weekend from school, so on Friday we made the two hour drive to the city. Our first stop in Nuremberg was the site of Hitler’s infamous Nuremberg rallies. The main museum,Continue reading “Week 43: Nuremberg”
Week 40: Skiing in Garmisch
Another week has flown by! It was jump-started by Brooklyn having her second sleepover of the weekend with some more friends for her birthday. Monday, there was no school for a teacher work day. I’m skeptical though and believe this could have had something to do with the Super Bowl being the night before andContinue reading “Week 40: Skiing in Garmisch”
Week 39: Brooklyn’s Birthday
It’s Brooklyn’s birthday week! I can’t believe my baby girl turned 14 😩. Luckily, Alli was here to celebrate with us. We had the best possible scenario, because I was unable to take any time off, but Alli was able to work remotely, so we both worked during the day, and then made the mostContinue reading “Week 39: Brooklyn’s Birthday”
Week 38: Surprise Visitor!
This week started out as usual. Wednesday, Matt and I went to Indoor Golfing Stuttgart with one of his golf friends. The indoor golf place is also a wine importer and bar so at least there were drinks for me while I watched the (bad) golfing. Friday, we got a surprise visitor! My sister hasContinue reading “Week 38: Surprise Visitor!”
