Skiing in Folgaria

Folgaria is located in Trentino, Italy and is one of the closest ski places from where we live.  A couple of our friends, hubs and I drove to Folgaria this weekend to experience skiing and snowboarding for the first time. Here’s a look at how my ski weekend unfolded…









The verdict

Although the prospect of skiing made me nervous at first, after my ski weekend in Folgaria I can’t wait to adventure other ski places for round two!  And despite some embarrassing falls and between tons of laughs, I ended up having one of the best weekend since I moved to Europe.

Brno, Czech Republic


Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul


This Cathedral dominates the Brno skyline.  It is an amazing view during the day but at night it’s just something out of this world. 

Capuchin Crypt






This is a church on the top but once you go below its ground has extraordinary findings.  Due to the unique soil composition, and system of air holes incorporated into the Capuchin Crypt, the bodies of the monks laid to rest there have been amazingly well-preserved.     

Old Town Hall


According to legend, this wasn’t a design fault, but rather a mason exacting his revenge on a city council, which failed to pay him for his work.

Christmas Markets



Trdelník; a sweet, fire cooked, cylindrical cake! YUMMERS



I have been to several Christmas markets in Italy but at least here in Czech; Brno was by far one of my favorites.

Welcome 2016

Happy 2016 everyone! Last night we were going to stay home and just spend New Years Eve watching TV and then hit the bed.  But then we decided to go to our friends and have a good time.  Which we actually did; we had so much fun. 

This New Year we decided not to do any resolutions but instead do prayers for miracles.  God is a powerful God and therefore I know that what ever we ask for He will provide. 

“Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” ~Mark 11:24

So, here is our list for 2016:
~ For our miracle baby!  We’ve been praying for this for the past two years, but God’s answer to us is just to wait.  We know that Jesus has our baby safely in his keeping, and that soon we will have her/him in our arms to guide and protect. 

~ For hubs promotion in the military!  He’s soon to go to the promotion board and he’s a bit nervous.  Hopefully he passes it because I know it’s his desire.

~ For our marriage and our relationship with God!  Infertility + all the meds screw with your hormones.  And during this cycle I feel I was a bit hostile.  I want to grow deeper into our marriage and for that we also need a spiritual relationship with the Lord.

~ For our families!  We desire a sincere union in our families.  We pray for the health and their well-being.

~ For my TTC Sisters!  Struggling with infertility is not a joke its very painful and depressing at times.  

~  For our health!  We both have been struggling with some health issues and a bit of a resolution here we both need to lose some weight as well.

We are praying declaring and believing in a God of miracles a God who can do far greater things than we can ever imagine.
