Week Two of Our Italian Adventure

This week we were still hanging out in the hotel, before I get too redundant let me make it known that we continued to "hang out" in the hotel for 8 weeks  - ahh! Anyway, it was starting to get hot, and the air conditioning was not working in the hotel, and had yet to be "turned on" for the season in any other place, so we were sweating 24/7. We decided to rent a van (even tho it was extremely pricey) so we could visit potential houses, and maybe take an adventure, but mostly so we could have the AC blowing in our faces even for just a few minutes. We played at the park, walked for gelato, again, and went on an adventure to see a castle about an hour away. Scaligeri is a castle from the 13th century, mostly surrounded by water in Sirmione - on the southern bank of Lake Garda in Northern Italy. Lake Garda was stunning, and the castle was really neat. We walked a ton, played in the lake, got more gelato and headed back "home".














Here is a video compilation of week 2:

My (VERY) Imperfect Perfect Life

Image
Hello, My name is Hannah Elizabeth Moeckl, I am a 25 year old soon-to-be mother of two, wife, sister, daughter, friend & nurse (who is currently not working). I am extremely thankful for my life, family & friends. I know I am blessed beyond what I could ever deserve and most importantly I have been redeemed by my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. All those things make me feel like my life is perfect in many ways, but as far as having it all together and actually being the ideal image that I have of myself, let me assure you, I am FAR from perfect. My life is far from perfect. The truth is that my house is usually somewhat messy and disorganized, there is almost always laundry that needs to be done and dishes waiting on the counter or in the sink to be cleaned. There is always a closet, counter or cabinet that needs to be more organized. There are usually crumbs on the counter and crumbs, dirt and hair on the floors. I sweep - sometimes, and I vacuum when w

Remembrance

I know, I just wrote about Elijah yesterday, but I have been thinking about all the things he is currently doing/saying; I am fascinated and I don't want to forget them, what better way to remember than to write them down? (this post is partly just for my benefit so it might get a bit lengthy - feel free to stop reading whenever...haha) One of my favorite things that he does right now: he will randomly come up to give me or Ethan (daddy) a hug - usually around one of our legs - it is just so sweet! He has also been reaching for our hands when we are walking side by side - love it!  He is SUPER friendly (most of the time) and he LOVES to interact with other people (adults and children). Sometimes he just bursts out in laughter to try to get their attention. And when we are walking down the street he will wave to all the cars passing by. When people respond his eyes sparkle and he gives a smile that lights up the entire room. It brings me joy to see how hi

I'm Back...

Well, it is a New Year - Happy New Year! Hope you all thoroughly enjoyed the Holidays. One of the new things I want to try this year is to blog more regularly. This may be difficult for me and the posts may not be anything profound or even important, but it is a goal. And hopefully some of you will enjoy this journey with me. Lately, I have been sitting down with every intention of writing - multiple times in the last couple months - and as you can see I have not successfully typed even one word. Maybe, it is because so much has been going on, I can't seem to gather my thoughts enough to share them coherently. Maybe, it is because nothing hugely significant has been happening and the rest doesn't seem post worthy. As a dear friend of mine ( Chelsie ) put it, I often can't decide weather to write about something serious (a heart matter) or something mundane (day to day happenings) and I often second guess myself which obviously leads to complete inaction...ha! Anyway, my
