That’s what Matt, my turtle forums buddy, said to me today when I came on MSN laughing about how Xander and I both forgot that today was our anniversary. We didn’t just forget because we don’t care, but because we’ve been sooooo busy with other things it completely slipped our minds. I’ll explain what we’ve been so busy with a little further …

Happy Birthday To Meeee – 32!
Well today is my 32nd birthday and yeah I feel old. I miss my 20’s! So far my birthday has been great, but I’ve only been awake for a few hours. I can now talk about my super birthday present though! I’ve been keeping it somewhat secret for the last week because I wanted to post about it on my …

This weekend Xander and I are doing… nothing! We are just hanging around the house relaxing and enjoying not having to be anywhere or do anything. Last weekend was very busy… On Friday we were busy sorting out a few things I will mention in future posts (hehe secrets!) as well as Saturday in the day. Saturday evening we went …

Today is Bailey’s 4th birthday. The time goes by so fast, it’s hard to believe he’s been with us for almost 4 years already. It seems like just yesterday he was curled up asleep on my chest as we rode home on the bus with him. He is such a sweet dog, and has the most lovely personality. We really …

Yesterday when Xander and I were in the car, we were driving along the Maas and saw a yacht going by. Then we got to discussing yachts and boats and how great it must be to have one. I made a comment about how it would be nice to go for a ride in a yacht someday or how nice …

So I watched that massively long episode of Idol last night. I laughed and cried in all the appropriate spots and fast forwarded loads. That’s the best part about downloading shows like this, you can watch a 1.5 hour show in about 20 minutes just by skipping the crap… and god is there lots of crap on AI this year. …

I haven’t been participating in the photo hunt lately but I knew I had the perfect pic for this week. This is the door of our apartment which is on the third floor. That’s a lot of steps. A lot of steps to carry groceries up. A lot of steps to get the mail. A lot of steps to chase …
Read More »Kinderdijk!
Yesterday me and the girls went to Kinderdijk which was really cool. I can’t believe I’ve been living here almost 8 years and hadn’t been there yet! If you are wondering what Kinderdijk is, it’s just a nice place just outside of Rotterdam where there’s a buttload of pretty windmills to take pics of. This is me in front of …

I just finished watching this week’s performances for American Idol. Eish, does this year suck. Jordin did great, I’m actually starting to see her as a front runner. Helped that I really loved the song she sang. Melinda also did an awesome job and I love that Simon told her to drop the surprise act every time someone compliments her, …

Ok I’m not a mother so maybe I just don’t get what would possess this woman to breastfeed her children so long. By so long I don’t mean until they are 14 months rather than 9 months, I mean like… until they are 5 and 8 years old and then some. It can’t be just me who found it incredibly …

Yesterday I went to the Rotterdam Zoo (Diergaarde Blijdorp) with my three friends Lynda (right), Paule (left) and Simone (middle). It was a beautiful day with temps in the low 20’s and we had such a wonderful time. Lynda is leaving us on the 24th when she moves back to the UK to live. So we’re getting in as much …
