WOW...........We Got Germany!!! I still cannot believe that we are moving to Germany- I am so excited and yet terrified all at the same time. Chris was selected to go to Germany because of how well he did in PRIMARY FLIGHT SCHOOL- which was the very very beginning of his flight school career. Everybody should be very excited and proud of Chris- he is an excellent student and Aviator and this assignment demonstrates his man among men status. He just passed "the Bag" in the Apache course which is the toughest part of the Apache training, I made him Red Velvet cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting to celebrate.
I delivered some of the cupcakes to our next door neighbors. The Daddy is deployed to Afghanistan and the teenage girl Vanessa answered the door when she saw the cupcakes she lit up and gave me the biggest hug. Next we delivered some to our neighbors down the street Erica and Dan- they just had a baby girl Kembree- she has been crying non-stop. It felt good to deliver happiness around the neighborhood my soul was sparkling.......
ILLesheim is a small German town located about 45 minutes for Nuernberg and 2 hours from Frankfurt. It has about 4000 people in it, which is about 1000 less than Enterprise, AL. So its definitely out in the country. The good news is it serves as a market center for the surrounding agricultural area that is similar to a small farming community in the Mid-west in the US. Its people are rugged individualists such as those who are found in the New England states. I think this will be a good fit for Chris and I.
We watched the movie "Away We Go" its a B rate Indie film with lots of good actors in it. It won a lot of awards, its about a pregnant couple trying to find where they should live. Its a lot like Sideways or Little Miss Sunshine- that dark humor- anyways, we laughed our asses off!!! Chris was doing his high pitched girl laugh out loud- which was making me laugh even harder.......why don't they make more quality movies like that?
Grats again on the big move....sounds like the general area Cody lived, but I forget the name of all the towns in his area.
ReplyDeleteAnd I LOOOOVE Away We Go!! I usually hate romantical type movies that is one of my exceptions. The hippie mom part kills me every time.
