What we've been up to...

We've been in Germany a little over a month and we've been in our apartment a little over two weeks.  We are still at most two weeks away from getting the "rest of our stuff".  I can't hardly wait!  Not sure what I am most excited about...having OUR microwave, or OUR bed, or just a simple pair of scissors.  Sometimes it's the little things that matter so much! 

So what have we been up to?  Well, Tom is the easiest one to start with...he's been working.  Not a lot, but long hours when he is working and we've sure missed him whenever he's not with us during the day.

Joshua is the next easiest, he's been busy playing, getting into trouble and following his big brother around where ever he goes.

Gregory has been enjoying Germany lots, but still missing his best buddies in Colorado.  There aren't too many days that go by when he doesn't mention something about someone in CO or he's flying his airplanes to Colorado or just remembering good times we've had when we were in CO.  Gregory LOVES preschool.  He's been learning about the letter "O" and he has a wonderful teacher that is helping him learn.  We've also attended the same church for two weeks in a row and this has been a big deal for Gregory.  He's enjoyed learning here as well.  There's been new songs, new friends and crafts (his favorite).  Today I loved to hear Gregory telling Joshua, "Goliath, you cannot defeat me!"  And then yesterday Gregory was quizzing Tom about all kinds of bible facts like, is there a story about Moses when he was a baby?

And then there's me.  I have been meeting new people trying to find new friends through MOPS, PWOC (Protestant Women of the Chapel), hanging out at the park, church and any where else I meet women.

This move has been a difficult transition for our family, but we have so much to be thankful for...most importantly, we are together as a family. 

Here are some pics that have been bringing smiles to our faces, hope you enjoy them as well.
