Macbeths' Madhouse: Our German Surprise Party

About Us

Brad: The best daddy in the whole world! He was made for this whole fatherhood thing, I'm sure of it! he is managing a huge Auto Body shop in costa Mesa called ICC. he really enjoys all the high-end cars he gets to work with, but could do without the high-end (AKA high maintenance) customers. he is the Sunbeam teacher in our ward and all his little 3-4 year olds just love him! He loves his girls and is completely wrapped around both of their fingers! Becky: Absolutely loving being a mommy! The entire experience is so much greater than I ever could have imagined. I am loving this summer even more than the rest (if that's even possible!) and truly believe that summer is God's gift to the world - or, at least teachers! Going back in the fall will be killer. But as for now, loving all the fun times with my girls! Libby: The most energetic little bugger around! She is the ultimate chatter-box and wows us daily with all of the things she can say. She is loud, lively, and so much fun! She loves the beach, the park, Disneyland, Shamu, singing, coloring, and anything that involves getting wet. Lexi: The spunkiest little thing around! She has quite the little personality and keeps us all entertained with her drunken zombie stagger, her "blue steel" face, and her complete and total obsession with food. She loves the outdoors, tearing things apart, making messes, and books.

Our German Surprise Party

The Second Installment:

After spending a few days with Brigitte in the Heidelberg area, we drove back to Martin and Susi's via the scenic route. It was gorgeous!

This is in Dilsburg, a cute little town with an amazing view of the entire Neckar Valley.

Brad and Brigitte at the fort in Dilsburg. It was operational back in the 11th century - crazy!
After a long drive, we arrived back in Trochtelfingen to find...A SURPRISE PARTY!

A few of "My Germans" from the program last summer got together to surprise us. Some of them traveled up to 4 hours each way to be there! They went all out - there was tons of food, adorable decorations, and a cute welcome banner, to boot!

After some chit-chat and catching up, we went out to eat at the local restaurant. Brad ordered pizza - in Germany of all places!! I can't take that boy anywhere!

We finished off the night with a fun game of soccer in the park and then went back to Dean's to reminisce and make new memories. It was the perfect surprise!!!
