My Once Upon a Time...

I already wrote here  about how special my grandma is to me, but I also wanted to show you how lucky I am to have her in my life. Some of my best childhood memories are spending time at my grandma's house.  She would teach us how to knit, we would bake with her and she always had the best food. When we would sleep at her house, all of us cousins would cuddle up in her bed with her and she would tell us stories like Red Riding Hood, but she would always tell the story completely wrong, until we would complain that this is not how the story goes and she would tickle us until we couldn't take it anymore.  I miss her every day, but finding her letters in my mailbox makes my day and brings a big smile to my face. Hier habe ich schon einmal beschrieben, wie besonders meine Oma für mich ist, aber ich wollte euch mal zeigen, wie glücklich ich mich schaetzen kann, sie in meinem Leben zu haben. Ein paar meiner besten Kindheitserinnerungen sind von der Zeit, die...

I'm linking up with I Heart Faces and this week's photo challenge is "Pets". This is one of my favorite pictures of Zuma, it was taken on the day we adopted him and he was so scared and shy that he hid under the couch. Oh boy, how times have changed!

This little Blog of mine should definitely not become a couponing blog, but I don't want to forget what happened yesterday! When I started this whole couponing thing I was excited about saving a few dollars here and there, then, after a few weeks I became even more excited about scoring free toothpaste and other items at the grocery store every once in a while, but I would've never imagined to walk out of the store with two bags of groceries and more money in my pocket than I came with.  Yes, that's right, the store paid me to take their groceries. Can you believe it? Because I still can't! We took $25 worth of groceries and got $1.06 cash back! We kinda felt like thieves when we left the store...no one folowing us?...no?...okay then...I guess we're good! Mein kleiner Blog soll  auf keinen Fall zu einem   Couponing   Blog werden , aber   ich will nicht  vergessen, was   gestern passiert ist ! Als ich anfing Coupons zu benutzen, habe ic...

Two weekends ago we had a full house. And by full I don't mean the three adults and two huge dogs that live in this tiny house already, I mean FULL.  Katie's parents were on vacation and we had the pleasure to spend some time with Christian. I just love having him around, although I know he probably thinks it's a borefest at our house and I don't even blame him.  We also had two of their dogs over and Katie's sister joined us for the weekend as well. Cosie got all dressed up for the occasion! Vor zwei Wochen  hatten wir   ein volles Haus .  Und  mit  voll   meine ich nicht   die drei   Erwachsenen und   zwei riesigen   Hunde, die   in   diesem kleinen   Haus  bereits leben , ich meine wirklich VOLL. Katies   Eltern   waren im Urlaub   und wir hatten   die Ehre, Zeit mit   Christian   zu verbringen.   Ich liebe es,  ihn hier zu haben ,   obwoh...
