Soccer Game

After the swamp I tried to get Tristan to take a decent nap, but he had enough sleep in the car I guess. I packed a few snacks and we all left for the soccer game.

Josh is the coach, by the way. His team won 3 to 1. Josh put 2 of those goals in :) The game took a little longer than usual because the other team's goalie accidentally took a knee to the forehead. It ended up knocking him out for about 5 minutes and he was taken away in an ambulance. I hope he's ok. At least he was conscious again. I'm sure he'll be fine.

Noah kept himself entertained with an orange soccer ball. He was really good the entire time. He didn't cause any trouble at all. He found an extra pair of Daddy's shin guards and HAD to put them on. He had them on his thighs, his calves, the backs of his thighs, and finally his shins. The went up past his knees, but he wanted to be like Daddy!

Tristan got pretty grumpy towards the end. He was so tired after today that I was impressed he lasted as long as he did. He really didn't get one decent nap all day. Josh kept Tris occupied for awhile near the end of the game. He's so proud of his boys and loves showing them off :) Rightly so. They're only the cutest boys EVER!! ;)

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...
