Fox, Katie & Nadine in 2015: Week 50

Day 344
One of my friends texted me this picture from Fox's soccer class. These four have known each other since they were teeny tiny and now play soccer together every week. Next session we'll have even more friends join his class, so fun! He really loves soccer and is quite good at it (at least that's what everyone is telling us). I'm sad that I'm not able to take him there, but grateful for friends who send us pictures and videos!

Day 345
Katie and I have been together since May of 2007 and got married in October 2014, but never had rings. So on this day, we went out and got rings! I still can't believe it and I love it so much! Katie's ring is the left one and mine is on the right. 

Day 346
Looking at Christmas Lights with the Family! We had such a fun day (and night)! There is a really cool neighborhood about 30 minutes from us, where literally every single house in the cul-de-sac is decked to the nines. We went there a few years ago and it was worth a return visit. It was freezing cold (for us anyway), but we had a great time!

Day 347
Katie loves to watch Women's Soccer. So when we had the chance to get free tickets to the US Women's Soccer Team Game, we jumped on it! It was a fun night with my favorite girl!

Day 348
Katie told me that her grandma bought these hats 20 years ago and made the entire family wear it for Thanksgiving one year. Let's just say I was glad that I was out for a work seminar that day and didn't have to wear one of these when Katie brought them into work that day!

Day 349
We had our Company Christmas Party and rented a Trolley to look at Christmas Lights. If you look closely, you can see us somewhere in that picture...! This is our favorite Christmas House in Phoenix and we usually go every year. 

Day 350
Morning Cuddles in our bed.

    I didn't know you got married last year. Congrats! And the rings are beautiful! :)

    Um those rings are AMAZING! Also want to hear about the wedding/marriage :) And apparently I need to go to Arizona for Christmas because those look like some pretty epic Christmas lights!

April phone dump

Some more pictures of our April. He's my bed hog, but I love sharing the bed with him and the way he comes find me in his sleep to snuggle up to me. Work Crew! Easter Preparations...it took me a solid hour to fill all the eggs. Finn chipped his permanent front tooth, and had to get it fixed. He was so brave. I tried to hold his hand to let him know I was there, and he kept giving me a thumbs up. Reading in bed with them is my favorite. We went to play mini golf, and it was an absolutely shit show. Just look at Finn in the background, he was on fire on this day. That's his "cool face". Not pictured are all the times he melted down because he wasn't "good enough". I really need to stop playing this game with him, because it happens every single time...haha.  Book Club! I wasn't a fan of the book, but it was great getting out and talking about books with other readers. He got into kinetic sand for a few weeks, and I felt like my floors were covered in s...

Germany

I took a quick trip to Germany over spring break while the boys were on vacation with Katie. My dad had some medical issues over the past year, and it had been almost two years since I went, but a trip that was supposed to be five days in Germany, ended up being only four days because of flight delays. When in Germany for the first time, you HAVE to try Mettbroetchen. Needless to say, she was not a fan haha. A trip down memory lane is always on the agenda for the first day, walking around my village, visiting the homes where I grew up in (which are luckily still owned by my family), visiting my grandparent's graves, and eating all my favorite foods.  My only living grandparent, and one of the main reasons I wanted to go visit. It was so special to spend time with her. We had doener almost every day! Family dinner at my favorite restaurant one night, I absolutely loved how many people were able to join us even though it was very short notice. We also had breakfast at my grandma'...

August phone dump

It's September, and I couldn't be more excited for what's to come...Fall, Halloween, Christmas...it's my favorite time of year. But let's look back at our August! I've had them fill out the same back to school form since they started school many years ago. When all the kids go back to school, us moms celebrate with a back to school brunch and it was everything my heart needed and more! So many good conversations, so many laughs, and getting to hold baby Nora was the icing on the cake! Playdate with some friends! Fox read with me in the car while we were waiting for Finn's bus...it made me so happy! He asked me to make him an "ultimate chill space" while he was at school, and this is what I came up with. He approved, and even tried to have a sleepover with me there, but we only made it for about an hour, before we went to bed. I took the kids, and one of Fox's friend to the water park one afternoon and it was perfect. Finn braved the high dive f...
