Happy 3 months!


our first meal at our new apartment! quesadillas!

It's official! I have been at my job for three whole months!

We just got the rest of our stuff moved into our house, so it is a mess but I am so excited for when it will feel like 'home' or 'our apartment.' I feel like our nesting time is just now starting. So by the time we really settle in we will have been here a month! wow!

We have even met several of our neighbors. Just last night even two girls came over to bring us cookies. They just moved into their place downstairs a month ago and are about our age. Please remember them and our relationship with them.

Language is coming along. I have a full week of language study- 3 times a week, 3 hours, and extra study. Tutoring is starting soon. I really want to learn the language and be able to communicate and understanding them fluently!

PICTURE TIME!!!!
... from this last weekend....

Well... i wanted to make sugar cookies, but i forgot to buy oil and all we had was olive oil. 
They tasted like olive oil, and we couldn't cut them to look like pumpkins... 
It was just bad... but then we made chocolate frosting! And they were amazing.

This is the elevator at brittany and april's apartment. It said it holds 4 people.

Costume party!

French Toast!!! I made it like my momma. YUMMM!!!

Eating with the girls. Of course we had to take a picture!

Hanging out on the side of the boat.
