Well, it's been awhile. Time for a little update, wouldn't ya say? To describe the last 3 months in one word I would have to choose the word crazy. We had some awesome times and some not so awesome times. But we are happy to say that we are all happy and alive and doing awesome. So, how about some awesome?....
A few items of business...
*We are now the proud owners of a mini van.
*We are now the proud owners of 4 chickens, yes I said chickens, real chickens.
*We started our very first ever garden.
*We had a sensational time with my mom, dad, and Hayley (sis) for a whole month
*We traveled to The Czech Republic, Austria, Southern Germany, Netherlands twice, Belgium, France, Luxembourg
*Discovered 3 cherry trees in our backyard that we didn't know were there, and they are bursting with the most delish cherries ever. Looking forward to our plums and apples come fall. We also discovered we have rhubarb, wild strawberries and black berries growing in our yard. I swear you can eat anything that grows in our backyard, it's a dream come true
*We are now BFF with all our older German neighbors
*Sadie finished up her 1st year of preschool, with honors I might add.
*Mark turned 30!!
...and it goes on and on and on.
First on the docket: The two sweetest girls in all the land... The Olsen sisters...
Here is just a bunch of recent pictures of the girls.
Thionville, France
Sadie Jean has recently turned from a little girl to a big girl. (She informs me all the time.) She has the wildest, happiest, funniest imagination and I love watching it develop. Did you know she has a real unicorn cave in my very closest. She no longer sleeps with her beloved blanket because ponies that live in the unicorn cave need it more than her. She all of the sudden will eat anything and everything. Which is a huge improvement from eating practically nothing. She loves to tell the craziest stories. She is soooo sweet. I love to just listen to her little mouse voice it seriously soothes me. She helps me cook dinner and is pretty good at the dishes as well. I can't believe I have a big girl now.
Okay. London seriously is going to be a comedian. She cracks me up. She has some of the best jokes I have ever heard from a toddler. She makes up these weird things and then laughs so hard about them. Examples: She will say, "Medicine for the bun?" and then say "nooooo!" and then starts laughing so hard. Another example she will randomly start saying "cow poop" over and over until we are all laughing. May not sound too funny in type but coming out of her mouth with her silly little voice it gets me every time. She is also the biggest copy cat and repeats anything Sadie says or does. She loves doing everything that Sadie is doing right now. She loves her sister. She is a little snuggle bug too. London is now 21 months old but I swear her and Sadie are the same age some days.
I could go on and on and on about these little sweeties but there is much to blog about. Maybe you are anxious to hear about our hens. Maybe not. Who knows? Peace!
