Birthday Party

We met some people the other day just from being outside and were invited to their son's 3rd birthday party today. There was cake and goodies galore. The kids jumped on their trampoline and got to hit a pinata too! All the kids played really well together. We didn't get to stay too long because Tristan needed a nap, but we had a great time.

Ahh!! cute baby!! Looks like you guys are having a good time out there- hurray! You're always so quick to make friends, you lucky gal! I miss you! I deleted my myspace account. I decided I was spending too much time on there and it was shameful. Anyway, you've got my email! I'm glad to see you guys so happy and together :)

That is great you guys found people to hang out with really close. That is also good that Noah has a little friend his age! Oh that is so important to have same age children when your friends. It makes life so much easier. I hope you guys continue to be friends!

I guess I never left a comment on this post! That's fun that Noah is already meeting kids his age to play with!

I love the picture of Noah jumping on the trampoline. I remember jumping on yours back at your old house where your Mom had the day care. ( I remember your insanely smart black & white...(Border Collie?) You would tell him to go get a specific toy & he would & find that exact toy!....sorry I had a flash back for some reason,haha :)

Hurricane Sandy

This will be a gleefully uneventful post, but I thought I should at least inform everyone of our whereabouts during Frankenstorm. On Friday the landfall predictions were further south, which had the eye passing near our tiny town after obliterating Dover, DE.  We happen to be surrounded by water.  The Patuxent River on one side, Chesapeake Bay on the other, plenty of swamps and creeks in between.  Not a good prospect. Josh and I had gone out that night to try and secure supplies and already, there were no batteries or flashlights.  We also don't have a grill and thought "we'll try Lowe's tomorrow"I mean, most people already own grills... right?  Everything in our house is run on electricity (including the water pump for the well) except for the fireplace.  I don't know what builders are thinking when they do that.  I at least want a gas stove and water heater!  So, anyways.  We got a few hours of sleep before trying to brave the crowds...

Germany

Noah and I are having a great time out in Germany with Josh. The house we're sharing is amazing and the people are also amazing. The only thing we don't have is our own kitchen, but like I said, the people who live here (Josh's friends) are amazing so it's not even an issue. I've been cooking for everyone to try to thank them in some way. We haven't been to many places yet. It's hard to go anywhere with a baby who has a naptime and a husband who has a job. However!! We managed to make it out to Heidelberg to see the castle. It was awesome. the walk up to the castle mmmm castle Heidelberg down below Christmas is huge here. They've even got Christmas markets out in the parking lot in front of WalMart. We've been to Luisenplatz a few times in downtown Darmstadt to visit all the Christmas shops they have set up. It's like a Christmas flea market. Thus far all I've blown money on is candy... mmmm German candy is so delicious. It's...

Hiking on the Guadarrama Trail

As promised yesterday, I actually left the house and went on a hike with Mama C and Goober!  YAY! I was a bad Mommy and ill prepared to shield us from the hot Spanish sun so we all have a touch of sunburn.  Whoops.  It was fun though.  OK so here's where we began our journey.  You can see the bridge between the roundabout and the little house with a red roof (which is a restaurant).  All the cylindrical buildings were a plant nursery.  We walked over the bridge and past the nursery where we crossed the street and then started up the dirt path.  The other little building is literally a Gypsy Keep. Here's what it looked like from the road... and it was so ridiculously creepy, yet fascinating.  I don't know why there is always tons of junk in trees around gypsy places.  There was a gutted van in the backyard, a stroller jammed into a wall, shorts in the trees.  We both wanted to trespass, but the kids would have inevitably fal...
