October was an emotional month for us!! My mom & her beau came to visit us & we had a lot of fun traveling through Europe!
We went to Oktoberfest in Munich but unfortunately that camera was lost in a drunken stupor so we no longer have pictures of that weekend!! Take my word though it was fun!!
A few days later was my moms birthday so I made her a chocolate sheet cake that, had our oven not been miniature it would have been a Texas one!!
A few days after that we went to Amsterdam!! Which has become my favorite place in the entire world! Though not for its sinful rap! The super friendly English speaking people & the abundance of culture there were astounding! Even though it rained the whole time I wasn't even fazed! We saw the Anne Frank house, the Van Gogh museum, the Hermitage, the Ice Bar, rode on the canal boats, almost got ran over by cyclists, strolled through the oh-so-intriguing Red Light District and was given an amazing walking tour of the city by a local which, in-spite of wearing the wrong shoes & getting blisters was incredible! I would go back on the drop of a hat & planned to make several more trips there in the future!

The picture doesn't do it justice but yes the buildings are leaning in!!
Cheers!
I also had a miscarriage while my mom was visiting. I left my baby in Amsterdam which may be a contributing factor to my complete adoration of this Dutch city! It was a fantastic trip regardless & I would recommend Amsterdam to everyone!!
