After our cruise the previous week, we disembarked the ship on Sunday. The process of getting ourselves and the luggage back to the car was a lot easier and stress free than the process of getting on.

Weeks 57 & 58: Cruising!
I’m getting pretty far behind on posting updates, but we have had a busy couple of weeks.

We did have a radiator burstContinue reading “Weeks 57 & 58: Cruising!”

On Thursday, we let them take it easy,Continue reading “Week 50: My Parents Are Here!”

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”
