We are moving our family of six from the United States to Germany, and it's already been a wild adventure! We've been trying to learn as much German as we can, and in this video, you get to meet one of our four cute kiddos, Grayson! He is very motivated to learn German and is so excited to move. He will tell you about how he's learning German, and Kevin and I share our favorite ways, too.
Grayson also shares how we've all been able to start making friends and what he's most excited about when it comes to moving to Germany!
ALSO - I have to apologize for the terrible lighting in this video! The sun kept going behind clouds, and the light kept changing. Also, I tried out a new microphone, and it was obviously not very good. UGH! The sound is not up to my own standards. I'm obviously still learning my camera settings. LOL
