Memorial Weekend in Wiesbaden!

The weather has been so beautiful here so we took advantage of going out to a local festival. Hoping it stays warm so I don't have to wear my coat for the next few months. 

7 Months Pregnant!

7 Months pregnant and baby Cillian is kicking and moving like crazy! He usually moves the most when I am trying to sleep...not even born yet and I am already losing sleep. :)

Can't believe our due date is only 3 months away. 

First trip to Oldenburg, our soon-to-be new home

We went to Oldenburg this past week to find a new place to live. We were quite successful and found a perfect place with a backyard. 

Oldenburg State Theater where Logan will be working!

Looking forward to exploring more of our new town! 

We are having a Baby Boy!

Last November we found out we were being blessed with a child! It has been a rough pregnancy, but Logan and I are very excited to be having a baby boy! We can't wait to meet you Cillian Malone Rucker

 

Our little boy is due August 3rd, but I wouldn't mind if he came a bit sooner. :) 

Getting bigger every week!

O Christmas Tree

I ordered a Christmas tree and thought I was getting one that was 6 feet tall...looks like the metric system beat me again! Stupid measurements in cm. Oh well, it still was fund to decorate and put up! I only broke one ornament so far.

Weihnachtsmarkt in Wiesbaden!

Last Tuesday, the Weihnachtsmarkt (Christmas Market) officially opened in Wiesbaden! We went to the opening ceremonies and we went today since we live within a five minute walk! It is SO amazing and full of awesome Christmas stands serving food and drinks and selling typical German Christmas decorations.

The Christmas tree in the middle of the market!

Interesting street performers...they possible had too much to drink because they weren't that great. Haha

A two story merry-go-round!  

We rode the Ferris Wheel and got a good view of market.

 This was the opening ceremony show. Two actors dressed as angels lighting the square and the tree.

I LOVE CHRISTMAS!!!

Veronica comes to Germany Part 6-Munich!

Our last days of the trip were spent in Munich! This city is SO awesome. Lots of beautiful buildings and churches!

Our first place to eat at was the Hofbräuhaus. A huge drinking hall with live music!

Part of the Beer Garden.

Local Market Shops!

Outside of the New City Hall.

Munich Opera House!

We went to St. Peter's and climbed 306 steps to get a spectacular view of the city from the tower! It was hard but worth it.

All of the walking killed Veronica. Haha.
