Austria

45It's a Major Award!!!!!

Well maybe not an awesomely provocative leg lamp but Devin did receive a major reward. In the form a trip anywhere in the world. Daunting right well we narrowed it down and we are going to Austria/Czech Republic.

How did he get this reward you ask. Devin was nominated for employee of the year at Clear Link Technologies and after pleading his case, in which he divulged his dream of owning a chocolate factory. Where else do you research for that but in Austria. So it came down that they love Devin and he is the WINNER! I know he's awesome but It's cool to see those who also think he's awesome especially when they sign the pay check.

Now we are heading to the land where The Hills Are Alive With the Sound of Music and I will be taking that tour even if Devin refuses I will go by myself and be SINGING my heart out the WHOLE time! We will also eat our weight in chocolate, cheese, schnitzel, and any baked goods that's at arms length. While taking in the incredible culture, architecture, art, weird euro cars, lush green mountains that never end, and so so so much more I just can't even wait.

***Minus the whole 10 days without Teagan I know she'll be fine I know it's good to have these experiences , but my heart still isn't ready to imagine being gone for so long. Just writing this I'm literally chocking up. So I will not think about that I will only be thinking about SCHNITZEL and the cutest pair of mother daughter lederhosen that I will be brining back for me and Teags!

The first time G and I went to Europe we left the kids for 11 days. I think they were 4 and 2. It was hard during the whole build-up of the trip, but once I got on the plane it was totally easy. And I didn't REALLY ache for them until we were on the way home. This will be fun for you guys!

Wow! That is awesome! When are you guys going? That would be hard to leave your baby for 10 days! I can't imagine that. Really what an amazing time you guys will have though!

That is so cool. I remember you telling me about it last time you cut my hair. I can't believe he won it! Your trip will be amazing. Austria is a gorgeous. I can't wait to see pics. When will you go?

When you get back you have to post all your pics! I bet you guys are going to have such an amazing time. And seriously if you need help with Teags while you guys are gone I wouldn't mind taking her whenever! Chase was telling me all about how she was holding Teagan's hand so that Teagan could go potty on the toilet. Lie. She likes to make up stories.
