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!

July iPhone dump

The rest of our July in pictures! Movie date with the boys! I took Finn and his best friend to the Aquarium one day, while Fox was at the allergist with Katie. They both had a blast. Trying to touch the sting rays... Sweet brotherly moment at a play place. One of my patients made this for me, and it made my day. It's now hanging from the mirror in my car, as a reminder how fragile life is. This kid kills me with his watermelons. He always wants to buy them, so he can help me cut them, but then won't eat them. When I pointed this out to him, he simply replied that I could take the watermelon to my co-workers again because they love it when I do. Fox told me he is allergic to Goodwill and puts on this big act whenever I make them go. His throat starts to be itchy and he can't breathe. We might have to get him tested again...hahaha. We visited a lot of play places this summer to stay out of the heat. This was at a library and the kids played with this lite-brite forever. Finn...

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...

March iPhone dump

A look back at the month of March! Fox and I had a few hours to ourselves while Finn was at a birthday party, and he wanted to go shopping at Target and get some Starbucks. Sounds like my kind of date! This is where you can find him most days, playing games with his friends online, while simultaneously being on facetime with them. When did he get so big? Family game night outside! My sour patch kid. He told me he will still cuddle with me until he is 42...haha! I've been having a really hard time sharing parenting time lately. It kills me every time when I have to drop them off every other week for a stretch of five days, and I have been getting anxiety attacks. I know they are well taken care of, I know they have fun there and don't even think about me, but it still sucks. Whenever I'm not with them, I'm at work, and I guess it's just been extra hard because I never had to be away from them as much as I have since becoming a nurse. Fox brought this home from schoo...
