09/12/21 After the late bedtime, he did sleep in until 10:30, so it wasn’t too terrible in the end 😅 Our hostess had a tasty spread of homemade bread, seasoned scrambled eggs, bacon and a sundry of other choices waiting for us ☺️ The kids were in school until early afternoon, so not long after [...]

Hello humans 😊
This is where you learn about me I suppose, though anyone reading this right now most likely knows all the boring details ;)
I am Jessica Rose Peters-Hagenouw.
(Always thought I'd be able to pronounce my married name but hey, life doesn't go as we plan.)
June 11, 1995, tis the day Robert and Bonnie Peters received the most adorable, amazing, wonderful, surprise 3rd child they could have dreamed of.
Speaking of being the third child, I have an older brother and an older sister.
Both of whom are married and have wee little families of their own, making 'Aunty Jess' another name I go by.
I grew up and have lived all of my years up till November 2015 in Saskatchewan, Canada.
Making summers that are extremely short and winters that never end, vast open spaces, northern lights, unthinkable amounts of mosquitoes, lakes, forests and people waving to you on the grid road all different things that mean = Home.
But Home is not where I'll be for some time.
My husband is a Dutchman, living in Europe.
Therefore I too have been living in Europe for the last few months.
The reason I started this little blog/journal/writing thing, is to document a bit of my "whole new world," for those at home who wont be awake at 3:00 am wanting to hear about how I couldn't find flour at the grocery store.
Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek into my little life 😊
Sunday – Truly A Fun Day
09/12/21 How can such a small human body, take up so much space in a bed ? 🤪 Lake continued his night in our bed after the early morning waking, resulting in feet and hands in our faces, as well as the occasional head bonking. Enough to make the rest of our sleep just [...]
Day One Desynchronosis
09/11/21 Lake awoke crying about 45 minutes after he’d went to bed, so I settled him down and he joined us for the remainder of the night. So much for bringing his crib sheet from home so his bed felt more familiar 😜 My sleep was restless until around 2, when Lake then awoke, ate a [...]
Enroute To An International Introduction
Once upon a time, long, long ago, people could fly and travel and go all over the world and breath the fresh air as the pleased. There was a new father and mother living in that kingdom and they’d planned to journey across the lands to introduce their new son to their friends and family, but [...]
A Menagerie of Makeovers
Summertime, is a busy time. With yard work finally able to be taken care of and everyone wanting to enjoy every moment of warm summer sunshine. Though it’s typically a bit busy, it’s also a time that beckons for projects to be done, so thus, I undertook a few smaller things and decided to share [...]
Conclusion – Captivatingly Commonplace
We were ready and out the door by 8 'clock so we could go to what I think was literally the only open restaurant aside from the hotels. Veroba's Family Restaurant. The funky breakfast mural painted outside would raise ones hopes for what the interior may look like, but inside it was your classic old [...]
