Life!!!

May has been one of the busiest months that I can remember in a long time! It has been a bit crazy trying to get all of the logistics ready for a move, getting everything ready on the other end of the move for a smooth transition, school closing activities (the school is closing for ever, so there are a lot of special activities), arranging summer plans, field trips, trying to meet up with as many friends as we can before we move (lots of barbecues and biergartens - which is a plus), trying to keep up a little running, 2 communions, retirement parties, trying to sell a house, setting up new schools (und auf Deutsch auch),  5 trips to the local Volksfest fair with friends (Bailey and Camden), and trying to meet everyone's daily needs as well! I feel like I am juggling a 500 piece puzzle and trying to catch all of the pieces. Yikes! I keep saying to myself, "just keep moving forward now, and we can sleep in July." The coming week should be a little less crazy, but will pick up again towards the end of June. As busy as it has been, it has also been a fun month with lots of happy times. Here are some total random photos...

the colors definitely brighten life up!


Eis essen :-)

Wine tasting (we celebrated a 40th Birthday for a friend - such a fun time!  

Lots of wines from around the region...

Good friends - oh how we will miss this place!

More good friends - Sheep are my absolute favorite!!!

Our view on the walk home one night - so pretty!!!!

Water balloon war at a Barbecue- I love the German translation of Water Balloon - it is "Wasser Bomb"

A fun evening with friends!

Fun!

Award Banquet for Track - our girls won Division 3 at Europeans!!!!


Mischievous kids :-)

Another Barbecue with good friends!!!

An event at Mia's school - they had a celebration with lots of games and activities for the kids

I thought this was funny - one of the games included shooting a crossbow type thing :-)

Fun with friends at one of our favorite Biergartens

Mia's Picnic dinner :-)

Mia's class painted this to hang in a church - she was so proud! (it doesn't look that big in the photo, but it was huge!)
