Super Sunday VII, at our place!

My English speaking moms group is one where moms meet once a week to catch up while the children play, but those babies quickly become toddlers, and once they start Kita it is often difficult to make the regular weekly meetings and keep touch with the group directly, so they created a spin-off meeting once a month.. and call it SUPER SUNDAYS. & it's perfect because our significant others have no excuses not to help with the hosting! I had some friends over today for a HMM BBQ and we had an excellent time. I know Pablo doesn't really like hosting stuff, but we both enjoyed today. It was a total of 4 families that were able to come, and the kids sure did have a good time! Easter tree deco As usual, everybody brought something to grill, and my friend Maria even brought Frijoles Charros, they were delicious. I might share the recipe on here, I mean, it's not often we get to cook Mexican food in Germany! Here are some more pictures from today. I didn't ta

I am anxious for it to be June already, my little sister will be coming for a visit! I miss everyone so much and well, while we have seen familiar faces since we got here I'm excited that she'll be here for a whole month, it's also cool that she'll be bringing me a lot of stuff, hehe.

Easter, and so many things

Happy Easter to whomever is reading this, I hope you had a nice day! This is our second Easter spend abroad, last year we were in Holland cracking eggshells on the beach and this year we met up with some friends at a park downtown. We didn't get to go to church because we had a kiddie Easter egg hunt event today at the same time we usually go to church. My friends and I had been planing this for a while, did you know the fill-able plastic eggs are not available in Germany ? Yepp, we had to improvise, a friend bought some that are meant for decoration purposes, but they got the job done, and then Kinder surprise eggs, and other chocolate eggs, there was a lot of chocolate involved in our improvisation. Our day started really early we got to the park at 9:30 am and stayed until 11:45. I took confetti filled eggs, and two prizes, the way we did it was once all the kids finished finding the eggs we counted them, and the top three got a prize. Eating her Chocolate Egg.

(ich habe) Make up gekauft

Hallo liebe,  letzte woche habe ich neu makeup gekaut. ich freue mich sehr... and I don't know if that's right, so I will be continuing this post in english;  I bought some new make up last week and during the next couple of weeks I will be trying out and reviewing my new make up, I had been looking for a lipstick, and while searching for a good one I decided that I needed more than that, so I decided to buy me a whole set of make up. ANGELIC BEAUTY GLAM UP (Make-up) SET  from Douglas. So far I've only used the pink palette  and one of the lipsticks. The eye shadow stays on, and is not too light, I liked that, I hope they're all the same, I'm specially excited to try a smoky eye with the dark ones! What lipstick do you recommend? Diana,  ❤

Pallm Sunday

I haven't shared much on the blog ever since I posted about our first trip of the year, were  we went from Hamburg to Schwerin in a day , and that's because we haven't really done much else, a lot of being at home and just going to school. Until this weekend that is. Yesterday Evie spent the night with us. It was fun for Avi, she was really excited, she had everything all ready for both of them. and we went together to drop her off with her mom in the city center. From there Pablo, Avi and I proceeded to go to church, Church was fun.  they had something special prepared for palm sunday. It included a pre-mass talk and blessing of the "palms." After that the kids did different activities; such as listening to a story being told and learning a song.  We decided to stay with Avi since it was the first time she went with the kids and we didn't know how it worked. Another activity Avi took part in was decorating a bouquet of branches with leaves. S
