rozloučení!

For those of you who don't speak Czech that means "farewell!" Ok, so we don't speak Czech either, but we are trying to learn! So far, we have "thank you" down pact. We will be the most polite Americans Prague has ever met!

And to catch up some late readers, Daniel and Meghann are leaving for Prague, Czech Republic this THURSDAY!!! We are SO excited (and might Meg add anxious) to spend the next two months living internationally as Dan completes his study abroad. We fly out Thursday the 11th and return stateside May 11th.

Below is a map of where we will be in Europe. Prague is in the far west side of Czech, bordering Germany. Our phones won't work overseas, but thank goodness for internet and skype!

We we feel so blessed to have this opportunity to live abroad and experience another culture! Please stay tuned for FREQUENT updates! Love you all, rozloučení!

Love is in the air

To start off this years Valentine's Day Meghann got a BEAUTIFUL bouquet of roses from her Valentine! They were ever so neatly arranged in one of their coco mugs, it was perfect! Daniel and Meghann exchanged cards and celebrated the acclaimed holiday with a group dinner at Cheesecake Factory.

Here is a group shot of everyone after stuffing our faces with great food...and cheesecake! (We suggest the caramel pecan turtle cheesecake, heaven!)

On Sunday, we kept the celebration going. Kylee and Brody had us all over for a mini-Vday party. We decided to bring chocolate dipped strawberries. As we were dipping the strawberries, we thought "what else can we dip in chocolate?" It turns out nilla waffers are delectable dipped in chocolate!

We stuffed our faces with sugar and played games, best darn Vday we've ever had! It was our third Vday together and our second one married! Where does the time go!? We hope everyone had a LOVELY Valentine's Day. XOXO!

"Dude, where's my car"

We learned something last week. We live in the hood. Yup, if you didn't know our car was stolen. Meghann woke up to go to work to find that our car was not under our car port. After a few laughs and head scratches we couldn't help but think, "Dude, where's my car?"



Dan filed a police report Tuesday morning and they found our car abandoned 10 minutes away on Thursday. Friday after work we went to identify the body. Yup, it was her. Poor thing. Punk kid just took her for a joy ride around the block, ripped out our entire middle console and did some damage to the steering wheel column (we're guessing to get the car started). Other than that, no damage done.

We were actually hoping they really messed it up so we could get the money from our insurance to buy a new car. But of course not. That would be too easy. Since the car's not totaled, we have to pay to get it fixed; which we are just ecstatic about.

Here's some pics of the little lady in rough condition. She'll be back to her old self soon.


Moral to situation: We don't have one. Don't live around hood-lims???
