Bigs & Littles Round II

-
I signed up for the bigs and littles again earlier this season and this time I was big to two littles! I'm introducing you to Brit from My Little Sunshines and Amanda from Lil Mrs. chatterbox (if you haven't already clicked through to their sites and skimmed them yourself). It was nice to get to meet them, as they were both new bloggers to me, and the best part? the three of us are HS class of '07 (even if I graduated as a three year grad in '06).

Seattle, WA- I just love the feel of the city and wandering around Pikes Place makes me happy.
San Francisco, CA - Similar to above, I just love the feel of it. I thoroughly enjoyed the one day I spent there, and hope to be able to go back for more!
Oceanside, CA - We stayed here for a week for a family vacation, and I loved the relaxing vibe of the city. There is something so peaceful about waking up to the sound of ocean waves, or taking a walk on the beach.
Salt Lake City, UT - My ""home town"" as it were. I love it because it's what I'm used to, and because of it's rich LDS history.
London, England - Now, I was only about 11 when I visited, and I'd love to go back as an adult, but even as a young child, I knew there was something magical about the city my mom grew up in.

What do you like doing in your spare time?

I love to read, that's my favorite past-time! But I also enjoy working on my blog - writing, editing pictures and graphics, and learning more about HTML!

If you could wake up tomorrow having gained one quality or ability, what would it be?

Hmm, I'm not sure! Maybe the ability to time travel at will so I can take a nap and play with my kids and work on my blog? ;)  

I love new recipes, what is your favorite food to cook for lunch( or dinner)?

I'm pretty basic when it comes to recipes, and I enjoy comfort foods like spaghetti, mashed potatoes and gravy, and other foods that are full of carbs. A favorite recipe of my own (available on my blog) is shepherd's pie.

Would you rather spend the night in a luxury hotel or go camping in a tent?

Hm, I have to say if given the choice (and it was paid for?!) I would choose a night in a luxury hotel! There's something about pampering yourself that is amazing. Plus it would be more of a novelty. However, I also love tent camping, it's something we do together as a family, and we always have a great time.

Had you ever heard of this network, or these two bloggers?

From Cologne to Boston

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
