What i'm reminiscing about

The year so far, We're already at November. It feels like 2015 has been going by faster than others,

What i'm loving

I am loving the fact that I am meeting more and more people each week! I am still looking for that somebody who is my age with a kid Avi's age.

What we've been up to

Nothing much, trying to do as many activities as possible while Avi isn't going to school. 


What i'm dreading:

Having to turn the lights on at 5:30 because it's already starting to get dark.. there's good and bad to this, it feels like it is late when it's barely eight pm!  With the time change Avi is going to sleep and waking up earlier.

What i'm working on.

A blogging calendar and Pablo's special diet. he's been having hard core gastritis and request I don't cook certain foods, but if anybody knows good meals that don't cause gastritis I would be happy if you shared them!

What i'm excited about

Happy Birthday, Mom!
Today is my mom's birthday, and even though I don't get to spend it with her i'm super excited that I'll be seeing her in December! If you want to you can wish her a happy birthday on her facebook page, she'll appreciate it i'm sure!

What i'm watching/reading

I've stopped watching Netflix, I don't have time for that right now. I also don't have time to read a book, but I'm thinking of starting my first book in German, I think i'm ready I just need to find the right one though. On the other hand, we bought Jurassic World as soon as it came out, and watched it this weekend, I have to say, I really liked it.

What i'm listening to

The radio. it helps with my German and I love listening to music.

What i'm wearing

The clothes I got at the clothes swap I went to last week. It's been fun creating new outfits by combining new and old clothes.
Perfect Fall Outfit

What i'm doing this weekend

On Friday we have a costume party with other Hispanic moms in the area, that will be fun, Saturday is Halloween and we have a birthday party and plan to go trick or treating after.

What i'm looking forward to next month

Avi's birthday. Holiday shopping. Starting the countdown for our trip to Charlotte.

     Hi Everyone! it's been a while since i posted anything to my blog, and i opened blogger today and found a couple of drafts, this one I had done as a guest post on a friends blog and figured I'd post it here to! Have you been following along on instagram? I post on my stories almost daily and it's so much fun for me!    List the top 5 cities you've visited and why. I've already done a post on this, 5 Places I'd like to revisit go check it out and tell me if we have any cities in common! What do you like doing in your spare time? I enjoy spending time on the computer and watching stuff on Netflix. when I have time I like challenging myself to do puzzles. What are you reading? I just finished reading Accidental Tourist and am currently reading The Girl on the Train. What is your favorite food to cook? My all time favorite recipe is Enchiladas Suizas , but sometimes I settle for Chilaquiles (as tortillas de Maíz/corn tortillas) aren't found...

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." ...

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...
