My Monday Musings

Just a quick post before the day starts (I’m actually writing this Sunday night, but shhhhh don’t tell!). I’m pretty much done with my Christmas shopping, but I still have a lot to do before Thursday.

I still haven’t sent out my Christmas cards – I made up some photo cards on Friday, but have to have them printed and sent out today… talk about last minute!! I know that for the German family they will be more like New Years cards, but its the thought that counts right?

Waiting {Foto Friday}

Ray took some photo’s of Noah the other day for us to use in our Christmas cards (that I still need to design and send!! I promise myself I will work on this today because my prior deadline that I set was the 15th – oops!!) Noah was in such a great mood and was being a bit of a ham, so I thought I would post one of the pictures that we decided mot to use, but one that I still really like.

Happy 4th of July!!! and…. Herzlichen Glückwunsch zum Geburtstag Daniela!!! It’s my cousins birthday today… it’s funny, because for the longest time she thought that we Americans (she’s German) were setting off fireworks to celebrate her birthday! How cute is that? I’m pretty sure that she knows better now. =) It’s been a busy past

99th Post

I’ve really been enjoying the past few days. The weather has been awesome (well with the exception of a day or two) and I’ve been trying to get Noah outside so that he can enjoy something other than the confines of our 4 walls. I would usually post these pictures on his blog, but I

We interrupt….

life in order to blog!! I just looked and realized that in the past 2 weeks (well, almost) I’ve only posted three times. Granted in that time I did host a give away and post the winner over on my review site, but I feel like I’ve been neglecting my baby. Why have I been

Weiberdonnerstag

I sometimes miss living in Germany… yesterday was one of those days. The Germans kick off the Karneval (or Mardi Gras) season on November 11th at 11:11am… well at least where I lived they did. The festivities really started after Christmas though. That’s when the towns in the region around Cologne would start having Kappensitzungen
