Goodbye Summer

I am really dropping the ball on this keeping you guys updated thing. However i have been here just over 7 months now and my day to day life is still awesome, but....writing about it as often as i did before... well you all would probably want to poke your eyes out by now!

Since Kayla left so did my summer weather... i am going to say i had about 8 to 10 days here and there throughout the summer with Okanagan summer weather. Needless to say that is one thing i am looking forward to in 2013, an Okanagan summer.

The Kids and i spend the last 2 1/2 weeks together before the 2 boys headed off to Kindergarten and Ronja headed to the 2nd Class. nothing new and exciting there other than just playing around the house, making play-doh, painting and dancing.

Saturday the 25th was our last Fire Fighter match and with 2 quick practices under our belt we were off. It was a really fun time and makes me so glad i participated in this event all summer... cause even though the relay was the same ever match was different and we ended them all off with a BBQ and drinks. so really who could complain right?!

Then there was wine fest on the 1st of September which was a lot of fun, there was 8 different kinds of wine and then some food as well. this was also put on by the Feuerwehr (fire department) so i got to work in the wine booth. At first i was a little worried because the involved me speaking with strangers...in German (which for is me is a lot harder) speaking with people i know or children doesn't bother me but strangers is a whole different story... anyway once i had a couple glasses of wine in me it went fine and as the night progressed it was  a lot of fun! However the next morning not so fun... but it was good to know i wasn't the only one... my host dad was in the same boat! why suffer alone right?!

so other than that... throw in some horse back riding and some movies.. IN GERMAN... my summer has come to a close.
