Another week has flown right by! After the beautiful weather last weekend, we were sent right back into cold and rain, and even a snow and hail storm. The kids have been really busy every day after school with their activities. Brooklyn and Ryan have at least one, if not two, activities every day andContinue reading “Week 153: Softball in the UK”

Week 150: Spring Break in Italy, Part 2!
Part two of our Spring Break trip picked up right where we left off in Siena! Wednesday morning, we packed up the car and departed our hotel. Our ultimate destination was Rome, but we had a few stops planned along the way. The weather was still drizzly, but not pouring rain anymore. Our first stopContinue reading “Week 150: Spring Break in Italy, Part 2!”
Week 150: Spring Break in Italy, Part 1!
It’s finally Spring Break! We had a hard time choosing where to go this year. Originally, we had booked a Red Sea Cruise to Egypt, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia. Sadly, this was cancelled due to current events in the region so it was back to the drawing board. I actually had several hotels booked acrossContinue reading “Week 150: Spring Break in Italy, Part 1!”
Week 148: My New Nephew!
I’ve been falling really behind in posting updates! The weekends are just so busy; I don’t have time to get everything in at once. Two weeks ago, my new nephew, Nix was born. At that time, I was already two weeks late in writing updates so I did not put it in but he isContinue reading “Week 148: My New Nephew!”
Week 147: Soccer and Koblenz
This week started out with more sickness! On Monday, Brooklyn still wasn’t feeling well from being sick over the weekend, and on Tuesday, Ryan joined her. Apparently, everyone is sick because we weren’t able to get an appointment at Urgent Care until Tuesday, despite calling first thing Monday morning. Both kids ended up missing twoContinue reading “Week 147: Soccer and Koblenz”
Week 146: Ischgl, Austria!
Another week has flown by; I guess that’s the way it is when you are gone every weekend like we have been! We have not even been completely unpacking our bags, just leaving them open and adding and taking things out during the week. Softball tryouts were this week for Brooklyn, so she spent everyContinue reading “Week 146: Ischgl, Austria!”
Week 145: Skiing in Austria; St. Anton and Ski Amade!
After arriving back home from Chamonix Monday night, we had a quiet week at home, which was heaven after rushing around the last few weeks. We have been going non-stop since my parents’ arrival and needed to catch up on things around the house and sleep. Softball tryouts start for Brooklyn next week, so thisContinue reading “Week 145: Skiing in Austria; St. Anton and Ski Amade!”
Week 144: Chamonix!
Last Monday was my parents last full day in Germany. I took the afternoon off and we were able to attend the Fasching Parade in our town. For the last two years, the Fasching parade has fallen on Presidents’ Day weekend so we’ve missed it and were glad to finally be able to attend. ComparedContinue reading “Week 144: Chamonix!”
Week 142: Lasik & Iceland
Monday morning, I finally had my LASIK revision. My appointment was at 9:15 and we were back home by 11am. Everything seemed to go smoothly except I moved my left eye a little during the procedure, which resulted in a tear to my lens. The doctor applied some bandages in the form of contact lensesContinue reading “Week 142: Lasik & Iceland”
Week 141: My Parents Are Here and Innsbruck!
My parents are here! After a quiet start to the week, we picked them up from Zurich airport on Thursday morning. Their flight arrived 15 minutes early and of course, Zurich Airport is so efficient, they were waiting on the curb within 30 minutes of landing. Just like last year, they had to wait onContinue reading “Week 141: My Parents Are Here and Innsbruck!”
