A Trip to Paradise...

There are no words. No words that could ever describe the magical place I was blessed to spend a three day weekend at. It was truly magical.
Katie's Grandparents House right on the beach in Mexico, with nothing to do but enjoy the great weather, the beautiful beach, good food, play games and JUST RELAX! 
I sat for hours on the patio, simply staring in the horizon and listening to the crashing waves and it only takes a deep breath to feel peaceful, content and HAPPY!
Thinking about how lucky I am to be part of this family, getting to experience amazing places and how in the world I could possibly convince my boss to relocate my office right to this patio??? Still trying to figure out that part...:)
But for now, enough of the words and see for yourself...

Es gibt keine Worte. Keine Worte, die jemals den magischen Ort beschreiben koennen, wo ich ein Drei-Tage-Wochenende verbringen durfte. Es war wirklich magisch.
Das Haus von Katie's Grosseltern direkt am Strand in Mexico, mit nichts anderem zu tun als das schoene Wetter, den schoenen Strand und das gute Essen zu geniessen. Gesellschaftsspiele zu spielen und einfach NUR ENTSPANNEN! 
Ich sass fuer Stunden auf der Terrasse, starrte in den Horizont and hoerte den rauschenden Wellen zu. Du braucht nur einen tiefen Atemzug zu nehmen, um dich entspannt, zufrieden und GLUECKLICH zu fuehlen!
Ich dachte darueber nach, wie gluecklich ich mich schaetzen kann, ein Teil dieser Familie zu sein und die Moeglichkeit zu haben die wunderschoensten Plaetze zu sehen. Ich dachte ausserdem darueber nach, wie in der Welt ich meine Chefin dazu bringen koennte, mein Buero genau hier auf diese Terrasse zu verlegen...darueber bin ich immer noch am gruebeln!:)
Aber fuer nun, genug der Worte und seht selbst...



We took a little trip down the road to the Mayan Palace, a beautiful hotel where we got to enjoy lunch on the beach.

Wir unternahmen einen kleinen Trip die Strasse hinunter zum Mayan Palace, ein wunderschoenes Hotel wo wir ein Mittagessen am Strand geniessen konnten. 

And this is how we got there...
It was so much fun driving up and down the sand dunes!

Und so sind wir dorthin gekommem...
Es machte soviel Spass die Sand Duenen hoch und runter zu duesen!
Katie's grandma not only spoiled us by making us breakfast, lunch and dinner, but also with Cosmopolitans at sunset.

Katie's Oma verwoehnte uns nicht nur, indem sie uns Fruehstueck, Mittagessen und Abendessen kochte, sondern ausserdem Cosmopolitans bei Sonnenuntergang servierte.
I'm telling ya...MAGIC!

August iPhone dump

A few of my favorite moments from August! Meet the teacher for the boys! I received this picture from Katie's wife, such a sweet bond they have. I'm also loving how his pajamas are inside out...haha. Walter came back to spend a few days with us! We watched him last summer, and the boys kept talking about him, so we were all so excited when his mom asked us to watch him for a few days. Notice Finn pouting. He was upset that Walter "only pays attention to Fox". So many big emotions in such a tiny body. Mr. Cool Guy at his dentist check up and teeth cleaning! I was trying to get some work done in my office, but this guy needed some attention. Finn made a bed for them, so they could sleep together. In the end, no one wanted to sleep there, but he was so happy to cuddle with Walter for a bit. My friend got me some comedy tickets to see "Nurse John", so I invited my two besties, and two of my old classmates, and we had a blast, he was so funny. We even got VIP acc...

May iPhone dump

Some of my favorite moments of May that haven't made it on the blog yet. May has been such an incredible month and I wish I could turn back time and do it all over again. Between graduating from nursing school and all the celebrations that came with that, Fox's 10th birthday, Finn's Kindergarten graduation, and all the sweet little moments in between, it was a month I will never forget.  Kindergarten Homework for this cutie, he is very smart, but hates doing it. This was my favorite view at school, right when you exited the building. This was the place where we met up with friends during breaks, and after every exam, and I wanted to take a picture to remember this special place.  Making paper airplanes has been a new favorite for him. This was two days before I took my final exam, and I probably should've been studying, but having an ice cream date with the boys sounded much more fun. He loves to make us laugh. While Finn and I were getting ready for bed, I asked him to...

December iPhone dump

December came and went in a flash! We visited Santa! I started a new job in November as a patient care technician in the Oncology unit at the hospital I'm hoping to get hired by after I graduate. I have heard from many people that this hospital usually hires nurses from within, so I wanted to get my foot in the door, and also gain some more experience before graduating. I was really nervous about handling two 12 hour days per week, on top of school and sharing custody of the kids, and while it hasn't been easy, it has been very rewarding. I love the unit I'm on, the patients, the people I work with, and it's a very humbling experience to work in Oncology.  I took a screen shot of my activity after one of my shifts, I usually average between 7.5-9.5 miles per day, just from walking all over the unit.  The boys are playing bar with their cousin at Grandma's house.  We celebrated their cousin's first birthday! S'mores in the backyard. Nikolaus (a german traditi...
