Holidays

The holidays are right around the corner and I am so excited to start some new traditions for the Brady household! With that being said in all my 24 years of existence I have never spent the holiday's without my family and I'm not sure how I feel about missing Christmas eve dinner at my sister-in-laws house either. So I thought since Thanksgiving is the 1st "family" holiday on the agenda I thought we could have Thanksgiving dinner at our house, oh you know, since I've become quite the cook and all (haha). Then I thought about who exactly we'd invite ( You know since we are so popular and have a gazillion friends, yes that's an accurate number too, I counted! *sarcasm* in case no one picked up on that.) . Well it is Yardley/Muniz family tradition that after dinner (well more like lunch) we would play poker till all hours of the night. Football and Poker. Since we have poker night at our house usually every weekend I thought why not just invite the guys that come over for poker and play poker after! Thanksgiving and Christmas has always been a big family affair and if a friend was alone for the holiday's my parents home was always open for them to come join. Why should that be any different for mine and Rene's home! Now all I need to do it run this idea by Rene and buy a turkey...and a ham :D

What's been going on..

Well I've realized it's been awhile since I've filled you all in on what has been going on over on this side of the world. For me, work is work but it has definitely opened my eyes to a few things that I do not want to pursue in life. Rene is busy busy with work like always.
 
 Unfortunately Rene and I didn't get to go to Germany this week. Although we did decided on where we were taking our 1st vacation. We are going to Amsterdam the last weekend in October!! I'm so excited to get out of Turkey I can hardly wait! 
 
I bought me a bicycle that way I could ride my bike to and from work. I'm not sure how I feel about it but... yeah haha. I feel like a little kid riding it. Especially with my backpack and goofy helmet I can't help but laugh at myself while I'm riding it. Which is why everyone who sees me riding it says that I look so happy.
