Put on your party dress...

One of the many awesome things that we have enjoyed during our Army stint here in Germany is Daddy Daughter Dances that are out on by the local Girl Scout troops the girls love getting all dressed up with their daddy escorting them to the dance poor little girls still haven't figured out that daddy doesn't dance :/ 

Another thing we have enjoyed is dressing up for Adult time Battalion and Brigade Army Balls I honestly love the formal part more then the rowdy free for all that comes after but I love a reason to get a new ballgown and sparkly stuff....what girl doesn't enjoy a night of ballgowns and wine?

Life in Germany it's all about the brotchen

We are blessed to be able to live in Europe what an experience it has been for us and our girls...we extended so we were luckily enough to get approved for another 3 years WOOHOO SIX years living in Germany. It will be sad to pcs back to the states we will definitely miss our little community and brotchen we will definitely miss brotchen, schnitzel, doners, rhubarb pastries and traveling.

It turned 10 and I think it needs an exorcism

This girl turned 10 I still can't believe it each year she just gets crazier and crazier raging hormones? middle child angst? terrible 4s, 5s, 6s, 7, 8, 9, 10s?? Demonic Possession? since we are living so close to the Pope I have jokingly said maybe we should inquire about an exorcism...hmm not so jokingly Happy Birthday to our feisty, sassy, red tipped, devil horned, spiked tailed daughter...Happy Birthday Horatio
