Quick Catch Up

Well, it sure has been a while since I posted anything. Have I been that busy? Not really. Lazy? More likely the answer. So here is a quick summary of things I've seen or done in my lazy days.

I've been doing a lot of biking and walking. The fresh air and exercise is quite nice. I also see things I would otherwise miss while driving the Jeep and trying to change the song on the iPhone. Like spring flowers. Now that things warmed up a bit... cough, cough, we see them every where. And since the temps are lower, the blooms stick around longer than they do back home.

Even Charlie has been with helping point out some of the spring flowers.

Charlie SMASH!!

Michelle's work threw an ESS Euro Vision 2013 Karaoke party. If you're not familiar with Euro Vision, don't feel bad I didn't either. Basically it's a singing contest, think American Idol, for all of Europe. More on Euro Vision in a later post. The idea for the karaoke that night was that each country at the ESS get a team together and have them compete.  It was good fun. Here are some pics. 

Michelle got up and sang. 

This is about the time she realized her mic was off.

We took a trip home for Michelle's graduation. Michelle had her graduation on May 9th and it's now official, she's a PhD! YAY, CONGRATULATIONS BABERS!!!! It was AWESOME to see our friends and family again.  We had a fantastic visit!
