Ha. Right. Here we are 4 months since the last update. Woopsie! So here's a quick breakdown of what happened since last we wrote.
July
My best friend in the entire world came to visit! Talisha was here for 10 days. In that time we:
Rode the ICE train to Paris for a weekend...
Had a girls spa day in Baden-Baden,Saw and toured tons of castles along
the Rhine River...
Faced fears on a cable car ride,
and ate delicious chocolate, fries and waffles in Brugge, Belgium!
Yup, it was pretty much a freaking awesome halfway point of the summer!
For the rest of the summer we worked without much to report. School started and we continued to work. Our biggest news in regards to work is that I was made a full time employee with benefits (yay, healthcare!)
August
Nothing huge this month. I completed my first sewing project; a super cute skirt that I absolutely love! We also went to a medieval fair with some friends. We all found out about it last minute and Ray and I noticed on the flyer that if you dressed up, entrance was free. So we threw together some medieval costumes and enjoyed a fabulous evening of frivolity.September
Wait for it... We moved into our own apartment! After searching and searching we finally found a sweet, little basement apartment that we loved. It's closer to work and the big(ger) city, and we're having just too much fun having our own place again. We've been here a month now, and still don't have couches, but we'll get there. :) Pictures to come once it's actually presentable.
The Now
Just getting ready for Halloween and working like crazy. Which is partly why we still don't have couches, it's impossible to find time to go get them! Ray is going to a gaming convention this week to promote some of his designs and network into the business. We are both nervous and excited as he pursues his dreams to be a board game entrepreneur!
We are also counting down the days to New Years Eve again. This year, we are going to London! We just reserved our seats on the tour and are looking forward to getting to the city to do some sightseeing during a fun, exciting and meaningful time of year. We have heard the firework show in London is the best in Europe. We'll see how it compares to Taipei, Disneyland, and the fireworks that flew on the New Years Eve when Ray proposed. (Awww...) ;)
That's the news from Germany! We're excited for all the coming holidays and planning out all the Christmas markets we want to visit. So expect posts of those coming soon!
