Coupon Crazy

I have THE most awesome friend. 
A friend who spends her lunch hour to compile coupons for me and if you think that is awesome, you should've seen the grocery list she wrote me. 
The list had all of the items she suggested I should buy, the regular price, the coupon she had for me and how much the price after the coupon was, along with some explanations.  
I was in awe. Completely blown away by her generosity and kindness, I just couldn't believe it. 
So Katie and I shopped. Pretty much stuck to the list and walked away with 81% savings and all of these items for only $11! Oh and did I mention that we also got a $2 coupon off our next grocery bill?


Ich habe eine supertolle Freundin.
Eine Freundin, die ihre Mittagspause dafuer opfert, um Coupons für mich rauszusuchen und wenn ihr denkt, dass das toll ist, dann hättet ihr mal die Einkaufsliste sehen sollen, die sie mir geschrieben hat. 
Die Liste hatte alle Lebensmittel aufgelistet, die sie mir vorschlug zu kaufen, der reguläre Preis, den Coupon, den sie für mich hatte und der Preis nach dem Coupon, zusammen mit einigen Erklärungen.
Ich war ueberwaeltigt. Komplett von ihrer Großzügigkeit und Muehe weggeblasen, ich konnte es einfach nicht glauben.

Also haben Katie und ich eingekauft. Wir haben uns zum groessten Teil an ihre Liste gehalten und wir gingen mit 81% Einsparungen und alle diesen Dingen für nur $11 nach Hause! Oh, und habe ich erwähnt, dass wir auch noch einen $2 Gutschein fuer unseren naechsten Einkauf bekamen?
The toothpaste, two packets of dental floss and Vitamin Water were free and now we have a nice stock pile of pasta sauces as well. LOVE IT!

Die Zahnpasta, zwei Pakete Zahnseide und das Vitamin Water waren kostenlos und jetzt haben wir auch einen kleinen Vorrat an Pasta Sossen. Ich liebe es!
I just can't believe it! This was like five days ago and I'm still excited about it!
But without you, Ariane, this would not have been possible. You are AMAZING and I can't thank you enough! 

Ich kann es einfach nicht glauben! Das war vor fünf Tagen und ich bin immer noch total begeistert davon!

Aber ohne dich, Ariane, wäre dies nicht möglich gewesen. Du bist einfach nur toll und ich kann Dir nicht genug danken!

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...

Graduation Party

My mother in law Rene' and my friend Allison threw me a graduation brunch the day after I got pinned as a nurse. I love this picture of Patrick. My other (ex) mother in law made this incredible cake for me, she is so talented. My sweet friend Mason. We spent our first year in nursing school together, until he decided to go a different route. We still meet up for brunches and he is also my hairdresser, but I still miss seeing him as much as I used to. It meant a lot to me that he came.  I can't even express how loved I felt on this day. I am one lucky girl to be surrounded by so many amazing friends who have been through it all with me. Ten years of friendship this year! Katie and Christina brought the boys and also attended my party, which I really appreciated. Classmates! I was joking that the next time I will receive this many flowers, it'll be my funeral. I also received so many thoughtful and sweet cards and gifts, I was truly spoiled. It was the perfect ending to an em...
