Three Weeks down 156 weeks to go...

Today marks three weeks that the kids and I have been here in Germany. So far it has been an experience to say the least. There was the mailman incident where he could not understand me and I most DEFINITELY could not understand him. Finger pointing and super basic German has gotten me by. I know a few phrases now the biggest one being "Do you speak English".

Even day to day life has been interesting from how to work the front door, to trying to explain to the kids that their TV is not broken the plugs are just different here and they are better off letting me or Paul handle plugging things in. Tv has been an experience too. AFN is decent with their 8 channels but its the commericals that will really get you. I suspect i will be a history genius by the time I get home after 3 years of watching "Little Known Facts of American History".

We are slowly adjusting. The kids FINALLY start back to school tomorrow. So far Sydney has spent the entire morning upstairs trying to figure out what to wear tomorrow morning. Could this be a preview of what is to come in a few years?

With the kids going back to school tomorrow marks the first day I can finally finish unpacking the house and getting it set up without the constant interruption of Syd and Zac fighting.

We didn't go anywhere this past weekend so I don't have anything new to post. This coming weekend we are planning a trip to Kaiserslauten also known as K-town and Little America. This is where Landstuhl Army Hospital is at as well as Ramstein Air base. Hence the name little America because it is over run with Americans. I will be sure to post pics from our trip there :)

However this past week was not a total waste...Zac lost his first tooth!!!
