I wanted to host a housewarming party while my mom and Ron were here so they could meet some of our friends. Several people we knew in Germany live in this area and we have made some new friends since being here. It was a pretty big turn out with not too much food left over. Thanks to everyone for joining us to celebrate our new home. Our friend Laura made delicious sausage bread, my mom made chocolate covered strawberries and Beverly brought a yummy pasta salad. We received some new plants also!! Everything was much appreciated!!

Mom and Ron's Visit
My Mom and Ron drove two days here and two days back to Missouri. That's a pretty big feat in itself. However, we kept Ron busy while he was here. Mom and Ron bought us a new grill and a closet organizer ~ so guess who put it all together. You guessed it, Ron. We really appreciate everything Mom and Ron and hope you are able to come back for another visit. Maybe next time we will do some sightseeing :)

Weekly visit with my new friends
I was lucky enough to be introduced to Crystal by my friend Cindy (in Germany). Since I've had a car here Crystal and I meet up weekly for lunches (she's on maternity leave). She's been a lifesaver for me ~ otherwise I'd just be sitting in my big house bored out of my mind. Crystal's baby Megan is adorable ~ and loves the walks we go on. I'll be sad when Crystal goes back to work!!
