Mom on the Scene: arrives in Germany

It is a mom takeover.  I've taken over the blogsite because Jaime never blogged enough for us back home.  She doesn't seem to understand how desperate we are for info.  So here I am and will try to blog more frequently while waiting.

Javin eagerly picked me up from the Vilseck train station Thursday after my all night flight and train ride from Frankfurt.  I am always amazed at my ability to find the way all by myself to a little town in Germany.  For a girl from Paris, Texas who could only dream of one day going to Padre Island, I am thrilled to be here.  If I can do it, you can too.  (And yes, I finally made it to Padre Island.)

Since I did not sleep on the flight and feared sleeping on the train and waking in Budapest or Moscow, I was ready for a nap when I arrived at 1:30 p.m.  At 6:00 pm, I turned in for a good night's sleep and woke at 11a.m. fully rested and now on schedule (I hope).

We woke to a dusting of snow which continued all day.  For an afternoon activity,  I took the newlyweds outside for pictures.   They have very few pictures of them together so here we go.  The heavy snow slowed just before we went out.  Perhaps it will snow more tonight or tomorrow.




We are warm and cozy inside just passing the time now.  Jaime is now officially 34 wks and 5 days (twin pregnancy due date is 38 weeks) so we could be waiting for a couple more weeks.  But I'm here and ready for the show to begin!
