Luisenpark Organizational Day...

While Cullen was here, Ryan and I still had to work at times. We did make it to where if Ryan worked in the morning then I worked the afternoon. Our neighbor Kayla also got to enjoy Cullen's company from time to time. If Cullen could have payed Xbox the whole time he was here, he would have been just fine. I am not one for sitting and watching xbox for hours and hours on end, so he played during the day. Once we got home, we would head out somewhere around here, just to get out and about. There is too much too do to just sit and play xbox. During Cullen's stay, my unit had our organizational day. This is a day where all the dental clinics are closed and we get all the family members together and have a day of fun. We went out to Luisenpark and had a great time! There was sooo much to do for the kids and Cullen had a blast!

He rode this rope so many times!At the Japanese House!

He really wanted to catch a fish with his hands!

Potato Sack Race!

Jumping in the bounce house!

Water balloon toss! Sumo-Cullen!

This is how I found him at the end of the day!

Missing Our Boy,

Homeward Bound...

After our trip back to Virginia, Cullen was able to make the trip back to Germany with us. Wishing he could spend all summer with us, the 3 weeks that he did get to stay were very busy and fun filled times. Having to get our tickets at such last minute, we were not able to get all our seats together. We weren't that far apart, but for a plane ride for such long hours, being together makes it much better. Ryan was about 3 rows back, so I could still talk to him when and if I needed to.

About to board a really long flight! ~Getting all situated for the long plane ride~

Still looking handsome as ever!

Ready to be home,

12 Weeks 3 Days!

August 23rd, Ryan and I had our second baby appointment. It was so amazing to see our little baby again and to see just how much Baby had grown in just a three week period. At this appointment, Dr. Sparn pointed out arms, legs, and a VERY healthy heartbeat. I was able to record a little video too. I am not sure how to cut it down to make it not quite so long, so I will try to figure that out and attach it later.

Loving Our Blessing from Above,

Busy Little Bee!

I am so sorry for the lack of blogging here lately. I know I have said in the past where and what we were going to be doing. Well, we have been there and back and I still have not blogged about our trip to VA, last doctors appt, Cullen coming home with us, Berlin, Poland, many castles we visited during the family's visit here, and our Paris trip. I have a ton of pictures to post and very little time to do it. Ryan is gone this week to school until Wednesday, but I have to study for my midterm in Biology. I have 4 classes left after I complete this class and then I can apply to Dental Hygiene school. Once I have time to blog and upload pictures, I will have many many posts to share.

Looking forward to catching up,

Birthday Boy's!

Ryan and I made a quick trip to Virginia to take care of a few things and it just so happened that is was 2 of his cousin's boy's birthday's while we were there. Of course we HAD to go out to dinner for Zachary's. He is now 13 and thinks he is grown. Then for Tyler's, we had cake and ice cream at his house. Since he is 5 he got tons more toys than the teenager, but Zachary understands. Tyler LOVES cars, racing, and transformer's. He is the cutest little man EVER! If he said it once, he said it 100 times..."you know your my girlfriend, right?" It was just too cute! I must admit, his PSP was ALOT of fun and for sure something you could really get addicted to. He loved his transformer game Ryan and I got him, so guess that makes us the favorite's for the day! I think I can say I really liked it too! Of course, I have no pictures of either boys. I am HORRIBLE, especially when everyone else had their camera's out, I just thought I would get pictures from all them. Well guess that never happened either. I do have a few pictures from Zach's dinner and it was very nice.

Our Home Away From Home...

On July 17th, Ryan and I loaded up and headed down to Edelweiss for a little weekend away from home. We love going down to the tip of Germany and having to drive through Austria to get there. The view really makes the trip that much better! No matter what time of year it is, the mountains are always BEAUTIFUL and the weather is for the most part very comfortable. This trip it rained pretty much all day Saturday, but that just meant we had to stay in and spend some quality time together. We had some friends that made the trip too, so we had a great time hanging out in the evenings with them, and then just us being together during the day.

Thank you Courtney for the website! Thank you Ashley for walking me through it! My sister Angie swears up and down I don't need a computer.

Thank you all for all your help and patience with me while I learn all about this blogging bit!
