Thanks again:)

We had a fun week with my parents and appreciate everything you did for us thanks again! We hope to see you over here again before we leave which it could be sooner than we planned but i'm glad you had a fun time we know we did:) This is my moms favorite store it's in Ramstein on the Air Force base, Kathy Vohert has all her hand made Christmas decorations in Germany like the pyramids wood carvings that are amazing and of course Coo Coo clocks and it's open all year round!Dinner at Portafinos here in Baumholder I just had to snap a pic i think we wore my dad out but he had such a great time Andrew showing us how to cook an Mre for us, this is what the guys have to eat when they train in the field and when they are downrange. You just add some water in the bag and it cooks it in there they aren't too bad . They are good for food storage:) Zoey LOVED my dad it was so cute she would always be laying by him and bringing toys to him to throw, i think he liked her too ha ha. Germans love these, they are chocolate covered creamy marshmellows! We took my parents too one of our favorite German stores in Kaiserslautern Germany "The Domane" they have everything for your house curtains, furniture, dishes you name it they have it. This is the candy section they have so many crazy german candy so my parents got some to take home! My dad checkin out the German wines:) Sorry once again for all the LONG posts but it will be worth it once i make my book:)

When we were kids, my dad would come home from his annual training and bring us all "prizes". He would bring his left over MRE's and that was our prize. We loved them!!! Especially the little m&m packets and chicklet gum.

Oh, and speaking of food, those marshmallow things look AWESOME!!
