Father's Day

We had a great Father's Day (or Nick did)!!
We slept in, had a little celebration, and then jumped on our bikes and rode to Ladenberg which is a couple small villages over. We then rode a ferry across the river with our bikes...which I thought was pretty neat. Some of our friends were there and then we continued on our journey. We rode to a WONDERFUL beer garden for lunch. And guess what...it was mexican! I was so excited. We had lunch, waited for the rain to pass and then rode to the town of Schwetzingen for a brewery tour. We left there and ran into more rain. That's part of the journey right? We then headed to our friends house for pizza and then back home. The total distance was a 15 mile bike ride! I sure wish I could do that everyday!!!!
We had a wonderful Sunday!!

New hats

We have been acting silly around here!!! Lincoln runs into our room and grabs these hats and runs off with them! We are winding down here and getting packed to head home! Pray for us this week as the movers come Wed. and Lincoln turns THREE Friday!! I cannot believe how time flies! And then on Sunday, Lucy, Lincoln, and I will fly back to Iowa for a month before we head down to Texas. LOTS to get ready for. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend!!

We found some familiar faces!!!

Nick's Aunt Cindy and Uncle David from Texas are traveling throughout Europe with a group and Tuesday they were in Heidelberg!!! Lincoln and I met them at the castle and then we kidnapped them and brought them back to our place for the afternoon before they had to get back to their boat!
It was great to see familiar faces because we are winding down our time here and it's getting sad to say goodbye to a wonderful year here!
We played some board games (Candy Land and Chutes and Ladders to be exact:)
Nick grilled some steaks and we had some spargel (which is white asparagus). This is grown here in Germany all over. It's popular like our Iowa SWEET CORN!
We had a wonderful afternoon with them and look forward to seeing LOTS more of them when we get to Texas!




Happy Halloween

About Me

My photo
Well I am a mother of 2 kiddos. Lucy is 4 and Lincoln is 2. They are on the go ALL the time. By time Nick gets home from work, I am ready for bed. We are here in Germany for a year with Nick's work. It's going well. I am trying to enjoy the time we have here. There is so much to see and do and so much to take in. I thought I would do this blog so everyone could take a minute to see how we are!
