WHY?!?

Why oh why are there only 6 channels on AFN out here and yet 3 of those 6 are playing football??????

I hate Sunday nights.....I wish I could watch shows online but because we have an overseas IP address certain channels wont let us watch online.

Sundays are just boring here, EVERYTHING is closed except for the PX and Comissary, so we do our weekly trips to the Comissary.

Today we had a birthday party to go to, I was that mom that had to make her child leave early. Noah was not being himself and was being rude when Kim asked if she could take his picture. I told him he needed to be nice, he got really mad and told me he was going to punch me?!?

I don't know why he said it or where it came from, but the only thing I could do was leave. I felt terrible, I hated having to take him away from having fun. I felt worse then he did when he was crying telling me Mommy I am sorry. But what else was I suppose to do? Give him a time out?? A spanking?? The only thing worse is having to leave a party because you were bad, and everyone else is having fun, so we left!!

Other then that the day went well!! David had to drive out to Hoensfeld so he wasn't around today. But he is sure around tonight while I am stuck here watching football.......

Thats where we went today!! Our first big trip out in Germany and we left Germany!! It was great though, we were told you could do a lot of good shopping for pretty cheap. So we decided to take the trip there. The car ride wasn't too long, about an hour. We saw some beautiful castles in the distance and great scenery!

David had a BLAST driving on the autobahn, (the autobot is what Noah likes to call it!)

Photobucket
Noah wondered why we weren't transforming.....
Photobucket
Victoria was just excited to shop!!

Of course I can't make it very far without using a bathroom, Noelle kicks and pushes my bladder, which makes it hard to hold. Luckily we found a rest stop off the Autobahn!

We were told there would be a Mcdonalds right by the Asia Market so we left around lunch time and ate there. Mcdonalds is a treat now, you don't have it on every corner. Plus it is SO much better! I never thought we would all love it!!
Photobucket
We ate and felt great so then it was time to shop!! Victoria found a jacket she loved right away
Photobucket
David felt like he was in Korea again because he got to bargain. He tried to get Victoria and I to bargain but I couldn't and she didn't want to!! She got the jacket for under 20 Euro. Everything was a bargain there, all you had to do was turn away and they would give you the price you wanted!! David found a sweatshirt for himself, Noah found a spiderman remote control car, Victoria and I also got Coach purses and wallets.

It was great!! Everything total we only spent 100 Euro! It was an interesting trip but we will definately go again!!

While there we had to stop and let David get his Thai Massage.....
Photobucket
He said later Jon would have LOVED it!!


Then it was time to go home!! On our way home we stopped at our favorite Chinese restaurant!
Photobucket
Victoria had never been, we were waiting for her to bring home a good grade before we took her! She loved it!!
The day went great! Noah was so good in the car and at the market! He never let go of a hand!! We want to do more driving but it is hard for me to sit in a car for so long and not stretch out. It looks like it will be after the baby.


..........Of Course David had his happy ending!!!!

September 26th 2008

Our First blog!

Well Nicholas and Erika have one, now Kellie...so why not us?? Now we can keep in touch with everyone!! We are in Germany ad loving it so far. Things have been hectic but we are now in a house which is nice!! We will be adding pics of the place soon!

This blog is a great way for us to show all of our family our pics and exciting adventures we go on!! The Autobahn is quite interesting. I will not drive on it yet, but David has a couple of times and he loves it of course, he wants a small fast car to drive!

Our family will be growing and we will hopefully be welcoming Noelle into the world December 21st. She may come earlier or later who knows. We miss the states but not as bad as we thought. I miss the food, but David loves the food here. We are now having certain nights here at home. A few nights ago we had Olive Garden night, I am looking for some Red Lobster recipes and of course Red Robin! Kellie was nice enough to bring us Red Robin Seasoning salt! We love it!!! The one thing that I do love out here is the French Fries, they are so much better! So is the Mcdonalds. HAHA!

We finally are starting to hang up pictures in the house. David wont let me put my shrine of Noah up, I understand we have to make room for the next one! We are looking for artwork to put up instead!

I am looking forward to the Christmas markets they have out here, I hear they are beautiful!! Hopefully Noelle stays in untill Christmas!! Germany is much different then what we pictured but we are calling it home for the next few years!!
