SNOW!!

Well I knew it could happen here, but I thought it wouldn't... it's snowing!  It's not just little snow either.  It's nice big chunks of "Ohio" snow ;)  The boys are so enthralled.  I am going to have to take them back outside to play.  We went out earlier when it had just started, but now it's really coming down and they aren't going to leave me alone until they get to go back outside.  



It's actually sticking to the ground now too... CRAZY!  My neighbor behind me is from Florida and she was outside with her camera, really excited... she's never seen snow :)  Too bad my other Floridian neighbor isn't here too (although she lived in West Virginia for awhile so I'm sure she's seen snow) What a cool day!

Yeah, so they expected snow here to and we were "suppose" to get like 2-6 inches then it changed to 1-3 inches. School was canceled due to "predicted weather". Guess what..we got nothing!! ZERO inches of snow. They said it "dried out" before it hit land or something. Haley's dance class was even canceled to b/c of the non-snow haha.

LOL...I love that Tristan followed you outside and was trying to catch the snow. I guess that is better than no snow at all, huh? We took the kids sledding on Sunday, but there was to much snow to sled. It took them awhile to get the hill packed down.

I don't know how else to respond to a comment that is left on my page. But yeah he gave us a scare and a visit from the EMT around 5 months with my low blood sugars. And my face breaking out horribly. Other then that i have been OK. He is really tiny though, well i guess in track i should say. both girls were measuring a little higher then normal all the way through. I'm supposed to deliver on the 18 but if he is still small we might hold out! I just want to see him.

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...
