The Adventures of a German Girl

I can't believe the weekend is almost over! It's time to go to bed - but I'm dragging it since when I wake up, I have to go right back to work. This weekend was flying by. It was the most amazing weather here in Atlanta. After Brian being gone for the week, I was so looking forward for him being back home. I hate being alone during the night. ...and to make it worse there were some thunderstorms going on this week. I hate it, I'm such a pussy. I'm good and fearless until its getting dark. I hear all kinds of weird noises around the house, even if there is nothing going on, my brain just goes wild. Saturday we drove to the Callaway Gardens  which is about 80 miles away. Driving in my little convertible with the roof down was almost like vacation. We walked for hours in the nature, visited a butterfly exhibit where the most amazing looking butterflies were flying around and watched a bird prey show. They had a hawk, an owl, a buzzard, and...

I promised I will put some of my last craft projects down, and here we go - count to 5! 1)  YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE. It just looked so nice and got my mood up that I had to sit down right away and got the paint brush out. I just need to find the perfect spot now in the house. Pinterest...     ... my Pinterest copy   2)  Another Pinterest idea which I had to steal..   Pinterest....                 ... my Pinterest copy       S ince I love Letters, I had to do a "B" as well - You could say "B" and "C" come in a package! :) 3)  A 3 hour trip to Jo-Anns ended up with a lot of Fall decorations in my cart and in the end two nice Fall Wreaths for our front door! 4) More F all decorations around the house... the fireplace: Livingroom: Diningroom:      ...

It is again months ago since I was writing last. I don’t know how all those people in blog land do it!? Only for the diary reference, I will put some landmarks down… May My friend Doro, her boyfriend and their sweet daugther Josie came to visit from Germany for a couple of days. We spent a lot of time in beautiful hot weather outside, went to Stone Mountain;      explored our nearby playground, and Josie I think enjoyed it very much! The guys did too! :)            There was even some bonding going on, impressive since Brian knows only about 3 words in German!   Two weeks later we went to Jekyll Island. A long weekend with nothing but sun, beach, and a beautiful scenery. There is NOTHING on that island, so you better be prepared to go to bed early, maybe even pack your dinner. Sunday night we couldn’t even find a single restaurant open after 7.30pm! Long walks and bike rides on the beach. Nature everyw...
