Cars, Banquets, and Autobahn OH MY!

So much stuff has been happening! I feel like I have been going crazy trying to get everything done so fast! Well, the good new is we finally received our car. And having a Chevy Cav in Germany your car instantly looks like a piece of garbage. Even compared to the '85 BMW that still look new and run amazingly and they are older than I am! It was such a pain once the car was here, it hadn't been driven in 2 months so the battery was dead, and we had to get a new one. Also, it is a pain when you have to have a front license plate when your car has no place to put one! Zip ties come in handy. Oh and get this after all that Cole comes home from work only to tell me that the car was over heating! I almost lost it. And it took me some time to figure it out but I found to that there was NO COOLANT! I was so frustrated! Finally, our car is in a functional condition. We even drove it on the AUTOBAHN. That's right I have my German license so I can drive on the Autobahn. I went 90mph I didn't want to kill the car or blow the tires. And if you get in an accident going over 130 kph (82 mph) it's your fault, regardless of whether it is or not. OH and insurance won't cover the damages. But everyone here seems to be really good at driving.

Last Monday, I think, I was told that we were going to a BALL! (Which was really more of a Banquet.) Cool right. I asked Cole what the dress was he said Semi Formal. I thought that was weird, but that seemed was easy so sweet! When I went in the next day to pick up Cole from work one of his bosses asked if I had my dress ready. I said I guess, and she said you know its like super formal right. I glared at Cole!! How was I supposed to find a dress in like 4 days! Well luckily they have this online garage sell thing, and I got a beautiful dress for $60! Check it out!
Ya that's right. You know I'd be wearing Converse with my nice dress.

Yes! Found one had to drive to Ramstein twice to get it but yeah I look good!

I don't know if you can tell in any of this pictures but I have side bangs now got my hair did. I will have to put up more pics of that.
Man oh man has it been crazy! I just wish I had my stuff! And it's already getting colder. Let me put it this way. I go outside and it feels like Arizona in the winter time. So nice but you will want a jacket. Oh and did I mention it rains like at least once a week! Love it. And the colors are starting to change and it is beautiful!


Love to all

To Catch You Up

It has been awhile since I have posted anything, but here is what has been happening with us to catch you up.

Cole loves Wednesdays because that is PT (Physical Training) day. For the past few weeks they have been playing basketball and Cole has been having a blast! But this last week Cole decided never again, and here is why....
Cole was hit in the face and his glasses cut right below his eyebrow, and gave him a black eye. Not only that he jammed his finger and hurt his heel again. It was a rough day.
 

This was Cole's birthday cake I made it myself. Chocolate chocolate chocolate!!!

I served the cake with Raspberries and Cole loved it!

This is our house!

Cole and I decided to take a walk. This is what is in the front of our house, beautiful greenery.


That is pretty much all we have been up too. Still waiting for our stuff to come.

 Love you all!
