In a Nutshell

I had a hard time signing into Blogger - almost forgot my password. It's been a loooong time, right? Bis nächste Woche! Ha! Well, here's the short version of the story. Our reaffirmation ceremony was absolutely perfect. The night before, we spent some time "catching up" with my Sis and her husband. Why is it when you know you have to be up early in the morning for something really important, when you know that you really need to rest, why do you always end up doing damage!? We are planning on picking up where we left off on New Year's Eve. Oh, and our favorite present was from my Girlfriend P - we've been friends since we were 4 years old! She sang At Last for us and brought everyone to tears. On Friday, G's parents headed back home to Germany. His Mom flew like a rock star, she slept through the entire flight and woke up totally refreshed. We couldn't believe how well she did for her first flight - ever! We had such a good time together. Some of the highlights include playing Taboo in German and laughing until our sides hurt. And I cooked a traditional Thanksgiving dinner - they loved my macaroni and cheese and cornbread. We spent a day in Annapolis and of course, we did the Blue Crab Beat Down after seeing the sights.

And because a visit to America isn't complete without a little Wii, we also taught G's Dad how to bowl, play tennis, and natürlich, how to box.
