Hi!

I started using essential oils for sleep support over two years ago. But I only joined Young Living last year! I bought a set of 12 essential oils and diffused them all over the house.

How I Started: My friend Courtney offered a free roller to anyone who wanted to try them, I tried out a sleep roller.. then a couple of months later she hosted a try before you buy, so I tried two additional ones and I bought my kit shortly after -talk about hooked. Don’t be discouraged if you're feeling skeptical at first; I was too!

Background on Young Living: They are the first essential oils company, and they’ve been around for more than 25 years! Young Living has a Seed To Seal promise– basically stating they provide quality through extensive testing. They seed, cultivate, distill, test and seal each bottle of oil at their very own farms!

Looking back at 2016

3.1.17

Happy New Year!

2016 was a year full of visitors and travels of all sorts for us.

Last year’s Christmas was spent in Charlotte, with Pablo’s family (and my mom), we also welcomed 2016 there only to take a road trip to Orlando on January 1^st. We visited WDW, Epcot, Universal Studios, and Island of Adventure. Once we got back to Germany we spent some time getting back to a routine.

We took a mini trip over Valentine’s day weekend with our first visitor of the year. Pablo’s oldest brother came to Sweden for work and then took a couple of extra days to visit us. We took our second trip of the year and visited Berlin and Schwerin.

March was spent in Hamburg, we spent Easter with other English-speaking moms at a park. We had a laid-back time here not worrying about waking up early to go to school.

In April, we bought our first DSLR, it’s a canon 30d and I’m enjoying capturing moments with it. A friend of mine (and friends of his) celebrated their birthdays with a party at the dorms in the University. It was fun, the highlight being that they made a delicious dish called discada, definitely check it out if you’ve never tried it

We visited Salzburg, Vienna, and Prague with Pablo’s other brother in May. This is one of my favorite trips, I loved visiting these three cities and meeting new people in them. We also went to “the beach” here, which is really freighters coming to port at the Elbe River.

In June, we went to the Summer fest at the University, and prepared for our upcoming trip to the states.

Avi and me accompanied Pablo on a work trip and visited Boston for the first time, we spent a lot of time with Pablo’s cousin and his family-it was nice to meet them! After the conference, we visited New York City for a week, along with some of Pablo’s coworkers.

When we got back to Hamburg a cousin of mine came to visit and we took a day trip to Berlin. Avi ended up missing the last day of school because I had misread.

A friend of ours got married in August so we took advantage and visited Monterrey for two weeks in August. I got to celebrate my dad and sisters’ birthday with them for the first time in four years.

Avi started first grade on September 6^th, we were busy this month getting used to a new schedule. Then Pablo's parents came to Germany for the first time, they spent a couple of days here and we took a(our third) day trip to Berlin & Schwerin.

October marked our four-year anniversary in Hamburg, but we celebrated it low-key. Avi and I took an extended weekend trip to Braunschweig while Pablo went to visit a friend in Würzburg

November: Avi turned seven. We celebrated with a surprise birthday party at home and then a couple of her classmates accompanied us to a nearby barn to ride ponies on Sunday morning.

December: This year I decided to DIY Avi's Adventskalendar, she was really excited everyday opening her presents, it was nicely balanced though, because some days had something she considered boring. We spent Christmas in Hamburg surrounded by friends we've made over the past years. I spent my birthday in Ghent on our last trip of the year. We scored super cheap flights to Belgium (55€ round trip for three people).

What was a 2016 highlight for you?

I know I haven't posted anything in a while but I felt like I needed some time off. Lately I haven't had much free time, yet I haven't done much.

Allow me to take you back and tell you what happened these past few months..

In July we took a trip to attend a conference in Boston and then stayed an extra week to visit the big apple. I loved getting to revisit this city and got to knock a lot of items of my NYC bucket list.

Once we got back from our trip, Avi went back to her last week of school, and my cousin came to visit.. but I kinda screwed up and Avi ended up missing the last day of school (we took a day trip to Berlin instead).

We had all of August free, and we took advantage of this (and a wedding in our hometown) and went to visit our family in Mexico.

We had a packed two weeks in Mexico, during which we were able to catch up with a lot of friends, visit the BBVA Stadium and Avi took an intensive swim course, she was able to get the basic done, but she still needs to learn more.

On August 19th, we visited a Zoo, Bioparque Estrella and also celebrated my dad's birthday with him and all his kids.

In September I had quite a few appointments, first one being Avi's first day of school, and the first day of first grade is a big day in the German's lives.

We got to go see Liebe Stirbt Nie (Phantom II) before it left Hamburg.

My in-laws came to Germany for the first time, they stayed here for a week, during which we went to Berlin, Schwerin and the Fischmarkt.

They left three days before Pablo's birthday since his sister was expecting a child around that date.. the baby happened to be born the day the arrived in Charlotte!

Instead of throwing Pablo a party to celebrate his 29th birthday we took two separate trips in October. Avi and I went to Braunschweig to visit some friends that just moved there while Pablo went to visit a friend of his at Würzburg.

Towards the end of the month Avi had two weeks off for Herbstferien (Fall Break). We spent it with friends and sleepovers.

On November 1st, (after Avi's two weeks off from school) Pablo went on a guys trip to Dublin. He returned Nov 4th to find a house full of friends celebrating Avi's birthday. The surprise party was needed, she said she didn't have a good day at school (for the most part), so it was nice to have her friends here to cheer her up.

For the first time in four years we did the Laternenumzug with snow! It felt like winter that day, especially since they were selling Glühwein at the fest.

Another friend of Pablo's came to visit this month and we took him around Hamburg and visited the recently opened Elbphilharmonie.

The snow went away and the Weihnachtsmarkts are open for the season, we went to the one in our area the day it opened.

And we've been taking advantage of the nice-weather days and teaching Avi to ride her bike.

So yeah, that's what's been going on, have you missed me?

Travel

From Cologne to Boston

1.8.16

I read Rachel's post: liveblogging a 12 hour flight to Bangkok and loved it.. granted not every flight is a good one but I figured I'd give this a go and try doing a similar post.

I decided to record happenings on my most recent flight, even thought it was less than eight hours it seemed to go okayish and so i'm sharing it with you today.

Here's how my flight went down:

Before the flight, we were kind of worried about not having any in-flight entertainment since we booked our transatlantic flight with eurowings.

13:03 Board the plane. We get happy the plane does have in flight entertainment. We also noticed that every seat has a water bottle. Sadly only the ones with extra leg room get a blanket/pillow.

13:17 Find out the in flight entertainment requires a 9,99€ payment.

13:44 Time for the safety procedure demo.

13:53 Prepare for take off, then eventually take off.

13:56 Kid behind me says: "guck mal da unten die kleinen Autos."

14:16 The steward comes by selling 3 euro earphones.

Come by giving us food, but only to the ones who pre-booked it. The guy next to us then requests to buy a hot meal and the steward says "no, sorry you had to pre book it..." and offers only cold food to him. He buys two sandwiches.

15:30 Stop by to pick up trash, guy next to us asks if he can order coffee the lady says they aren't serving anymore "that time has passed."

17:45 Avi wakes me up because she needs to go to the restroom and she can't open the door, turns out they're all occupied! But then it turns out that once she was in there she had a little problem trying to open the door to come out

18:34 They turn lights on and they pass out a snack, again, to those who paid for it.

20:35 Avi comes to sit with me (on top) and says her tummy hurts. I braid her hair and then we watched muted movie trailers and I narrated them. #funny

21:05 Start preparing for landing
