This was the view off our balcony from our hotel room.

This was the lodge we stayed in at Edelweiss on the marriage retreat! It was beautiful.

We went to Edelweiss this past 4 day weekend. We went skiing and had a really good time. We had to put Chloe in a boarding kennel and when we picked her up she was excited to see us. Once we got home though that was when she showed that she was mad at us for sending her there. She is still a little mad today but she is coming around! Cody is going to be working a lot this week and this next month so hopefully things won't get to crazy around here. We had a pretty good Easter weekend. We got to talk to some of our family and we really enjoyed it. My parents didn't get together with my side of the family but they had some friends that invited them over so that was nice for them. We didn't have a big Easter dinner but I did make broccoli and cheese casserole so that made it feel like home. We missed family and it is always the hardest around the holiday's. We talked to G-ma Lydia and I think she was about to cry and that is hard to hear. She just misses us though. Our friends Karyn and Fran and their little girl are going to be here in a few weeks. We are getting excited about that! It will be nice to have people here that we know! I found out that almost everyone that is here likes to drink,party, and cuss. I think that is why we haven't found to many people to hang out with. We just don't like to do those things and feel out of place around people that do. We will make it though we have each other!! We are going to have to buy a lawn-mower this week. Our grass is getting pretty high and is starting to look bad. It was ok until our neighbor mowed and now you can really see how tall it is. :) We took lots of pictures on our trip so I will post them today!

Today we went to the PX and got our refund and ordered yet again another set of furniture. I'm so sick of furniture now...haha. We ordered beige wall away recliner sofa and love seat. This way the color will go with whatever I decide to put on the walls. I get bored with things and like to change colors a lot so red just wasn't a great decision. We left Chloe at home twice today and she didn't have an accident!!! I'm so proud of her and I think she is really doing well. I got an e-mail today from our friends Fran and Karyn and they will be here in 3 weeks!!! I'm looking forward to that so much.

Today hasn't been that great. Good thing bad days only come once in a while! I just don't like our furniture that we got. It seems like the more I look at it the more I hate it. I am just really upset because I didn't take time to think about it. We just saw it and bought it. Thankfully though Cody agreed with me and didn't like it so we went and talked to customer service and we are allowed to return it. We have to pay for the delivery fee but other than that there is no penalty. I'm really glad because I didn't want to be stuck with something that neither one of us were happy with. It was one of those things when it looked really good in the store but not in our house. I was so mad at myself and just cried all day but I talked to my parents and Cody about it and now I feel a little bit better. Times like that is just when I want to kick my own butt for not thinking first!!! Tomorrow they are going to come pick it up and then we can get our refund on Wednesday. I just need to stop letting little things like this stress me so much. We also were on the phone all day trying to find a dog sitter. We called and talked to probably 5 places b4 we found one that could take her. I'm nervous because this will be the first time I have been away from my baby since we got her! I think she will be just fine it's me that we will have to worry about.. haha. Hopefully we will be so busy this weekend I won't notice to much. Cody and Chloe are playing with an empty propel bottle right now. It's pretty funny. O and the best part about today was that I got to enjoy my Chilli's salsa still. It is soooooo GOOD!!

We really enjoyed the Easter egg hunt that the squadron put on for the kids. It would have been more fun if we had kids of our own but I think we are still kids ourselves :) We were in charge of the egg on a spoon race and we had a really good turnout. We were there for a couple of hours and then came home. That was the best day so far I believe. The weather was so wonderful and has been for about a week now. Today it is a little rainy but still very nice. Yesterday we took a little trip to Ramstein, Germany. We went to the Air Base there and I got to eat at CHILLI'S!!!! O my it was soooooo good. I ate until I was about to pop! I got salsa and chips to go and I've been eating on them today.. YUM YUM! We ordered our furniture on Friday and got a lot of our errands done. We really lucked out on our furniture we went in the PX to order some of the internet catalog but we looked in the store first. We found some we liked in the store so we ordered that and they delivered it TODAY!! Yah! We were really glad that we didn't have to wait 3-4 months. We were surprised it only took 2 days but I guess they had it in the back so we got it! We have it all set up and it looks good, we just have to buy a rug and it will be done! I'm so excited! Cody is glad to because this means he doesn't have to move furniture anymore... haha. Chloe likes the new furniture to, she is already making it her new bed. We didn't get the white like we were wanting but we got a red/Burgundy color. I think it will last longer and stay cleaner. We didn't get to go to church today because we had to be here for the furniture to be delivered. I got groceries though so that is good. This next weekend we are going to Edelweiss for a marriage retreat. We get to go for free and we have free time except for 2 hours of an evening. We get to go skiing and all that jazz. It will be a fun experience for the both of us. Hopefully we don't break anything when we ski. We miss you all and love you!

Well today I feel much better. I guess I was just having a day to fall apart! Chloe and I went on our daily walk. It is sooo nice here today. I am wearing shorts in Germany! Something I never thought I would do. I have all the window's open in the house and it is just wonderful. Cody didn't get to come home for lunch today. He has been working a lot lately. He worked until 6 last night and then had to go in early this morning at 5. He has 2 four day weekends coming up back to back. I think it is their "spring break". Tomorrow we get to help out with the Easter egg hunt for the kids. That is during the day so he will be able to enjoy that part of the day. I'm excited because I actually get to leave the house :)! Chloe is doing a little better lately but she hasn't been left alone. I'm hoping Cody will take me to OBI so I can get her a kennel to stay in. We are supposed to go in today and re-order our furniture so hopefully it won't take to long to get here. I'm ready for it!
