Project 365, Week 19

Day 126, May 6

This is the city of Cochem, Germany.  It is the city next to Ernst, where we stayed over the weekend.   We decided not to visit the castle this time, because we are planning to take our families this summer.  Isn't it beautiful?

Day 127, May 7

Fun with yoga in Boot Camp!  We made these guys do some crazy things....

Day 128, May 8

My neighbor, Tera, found a nest in her garage with a not-so-alive bird in it.  She asked Pete to get rid of it, and when he did he found two little eggs nestled inside.  

Day 129, May 9

A fantastic workout in Boot Camp.  This is one of my favorite weight workouts.

Day 130, May 10

Kid's glow toys are fun.

Day 131, May 11

Coconut water is a sure sign that Summer is on it's way here in Germany.  I love this stuff.

I got home late tonight, so I jumped out of my car, turned around and took a picture.  I really do like our street.

Day 123, May 3

Our stairs are kind of dizzying.....

Day 124, May 4

Noah took a field trip today to a Schmetterling haus (butterfly house) and came home with this magnifier.  He was so excited to use it that he made me kill a fly so he could examine it.

Day 125, May 5

Today was the day of our Strongman Run.  I didn't take any pictures of that, but my friend Sarah did, and I will post those later.  I did however, take a few pictures of the fun little apartment we stayed in.  This was our living room.

This is what happens when you give an iPod to a four-year-old while he is eating Pringles.

Volunteer Appreciation Day.

This was the only picture I took. 

Day 117, April 26

These are my friends, Angie and Sarah.  The two of them are best friends, and each are moving soon.  I completely understand leaving your best friend.  It sucks big time.

Day 118, April 27

Brittany and Michael are together again, and this makes me uber-happy.

Day 118, April 28

This is Ella.  She is the daughter of one of the assistants at the clinic.  She was in the hospital for 14 days with an infection in her brain, but was able to get up and play.  We took the kids to visit her for a few hours and this was my favorite picture that day.

My current reads.

Day 110, April 19

I went to bed around 11 and then realized I hadn't taken a picture.  So I walked downstairs, turned the light on and took a picture of the first thing I saw - some training videos.  

Day 111, April 20

One of these things is not like the others.....

Day 112, April 21

It was my friend Tera's birthday, so we headed to Nurenberg to see The Hunger Games.  This is a really bad shot, but I wanted to remember how small the theater was.

Yes, it was THAT small.

Easter Sunday.

Eggs.

Enough said.

These girls call themselves the Sucker Club.  

They're so silly.

Day 104, April 13

I have a feeling she will be picking up this hobby....

Day 105, April 14

This is my babysitter, Hallie.  She is graduating this year and leaving for college (which makes me very sad).  We went out for some pictures today, and I had a blast spending a few hours with her.

Brittany and Michael Together Again

Last year around this same time, I took pictures of my friend Brittany, and her husband Michael, just before he deployed to Afghanistan.  Well, I was lucky enough to be there when he came home as well to take pictures of the moment.  

The waiting was killing her.

Love.
