Let the sun shine

Today was a pretty big day because it was the first time I was behind the wheel in Luxembourg.  I picked the boys up from school all by myself and didn't get lost once (I wont mention the fact that I had a GPS telling me every turn to make) or get in an accident.  Another exciting thing that happened was that I met another Au Pair, named Rachel, who is from Minnesota.  She has already been here for a month and is here for the whole year and seems very eager to hang out.  We already made plans for Monday to go shopping at a sidewalk sale in town and I think we are going to take French lessons together.  She is also interested in doing alot of traveling so I think we might be travel buddies :)
Anywho I brought the boys home from school and we hung out for a bit then Eleanor and Marc came home so I spent some time outside on the back porch reading which was really nice because the sun was actually out (a very rare occasion in Luxembourg, the weather here isn't exactly ideal, it is basically always either cloudy or raining).  Then we had another delicious home cooked meal followed by a viewing of "Dinotopia", one of the boys favorite movies about two brothers who get stranded on a mysterious island where humans and dinosaurs coexist.
Now, I am going to bed, hoping to get more sleep than the 4 hours i got last night.
Goodnight!
