The past few days have been scorchers. It's been well above 90 degrees and that's not really normal for Germany...but thinking about the last few years and what the weather has been like, it's hard to define "normal weather" anymore. The first few weeks of July we had...
It’s a good thing we have a big place
We are starting to plan the first somewhat major party to be held at our home in the next year or so. We had Stefan's 10 year high school class reunion here - but that turned out to be about 10 people including us. That party did require a little bit of planning but...
Being accepted by the locals
Stefan and I were out walking the dog yesterday evening and one of the locals from town rode up on his bicycle behind us. The two of us were talking and didn't hear him come up behind us...and we were walking side-by-side with the dog taking up the rest of the small...
Internet complications
After reading our Back from the weekend post, you may be wondering why I didn't post all this info on Sunday. I actually would have loved to do that except our Internet was dead. We've been having problems off and on lately and were getting dropped during the...
Going to see the grandparents
I mentioned this before but we will be going out of town for a few days tomorrow. We're going to visit Stefan's parents and celebrate his birthday as well as his father's (and my mom's birthday is also this weekend!) Ayla will be spending her most of tomorrow evening...
The shopping is complete
As I mentioned in my post yesterday, we have a lot planned for this weekend. This morning we left the house at about 8:30am so we could start the shopping. We managed to get almost everything we needed from the local home improvement store, excluding the pots we need...
What’s with the weather?
The weather in Frankfurt is notoriously bad. The winters aren't harsh but they are filled with many, many rainy days where the sky remains gray for what seems like months at a time and you just hope and pray for the day when spring and summer finally arrive. This...
Back to life
We didn't get anything done around the house this weekend because we weren't here. But thankfully it will be a short week here as Thursday is a holiday here in Germany...and Stefan has taken Friday off just because he can. 🙂 We thought we would be having his ten year...
Build your own climbing wall
I'm sure this might seem absurd and perhaps even a bit frivolous...but if you know us, you know w love to go climbing. Unfortunately there are not many places close to us which allow us to do decent climbing. There is an indoor hall in Frankfurt but it's always...
We finally got in some climbing
As you might have guessed, we're already home and have been for over a week now. But we didn't get around to writing anything on Sunday or Monday because we were busy doing some climbing and then driving home. Sunday morning we got up and went to have breakfast and...
