Baby...it's COLD outside! (An informative post)

So I've been putting off posting because I'm having issues loading my pics.  As soon as I figure it out, I'll be flooding this thing with a backlog of posts! In the meantime...it. is. freezing.  This past week introduced me to German winters!  HIGHS in the low 20's and when I get in the car to take the kids to school in the morning it has been 12 degrees! Um, all I can say is we are not in Augusta anymore!  There have been over 200 people that have died because of this cold front that has hit Europe.  The wind is the worst part of it.  And yet, one of my kids STILL tries to sneak out without a coat and gloves and complains when I make him come get them!

One day he will be thanking me that he still has 10 fingers and toes.

We had a family from Augusta come over for dinner last night.  Their son went to school with Micah and they just moved over.  They are still in a hotel-I can feel their pain!  

We finally started hanging some pics this weekend.  The top  3 floors are officially BOX FREE!  The downstairs is another story, but it is finally starting to feel like home.  I'll post some pics soon.

On another note, Dudi got a church calling.  He is in the YM presidency.  He always is good with the youth, the funny part is he is also the scoutmaster! HA!  If you know Dudi, you know he is NOT a scouter.  It will definitely be a learning time for him, he'll do good...if he can keep a positive attitude! I on the other hand am currently calling-less...  I will try not complain:)  Jude is a full-time job at church.

So there you have all the info that doesn't require a photo (in case you were wondering there is info that DOES require photos).   We also have an exciting trip coming up at the end of this month that I will fill you in on later!
