Halloween 2009

Parker's pumkin

Sarriahs pumkin

Wonder woman

Darth

This year we had to stay home because the FLU fairy came to visit Parker, so we had our own little party here at home. Costumes included!

We carved pumkins, ate lots of candy, made cookies, and pizza, watched movies, and cuddled up on the couch.

Block leave

Parnach Gorge

Trav took a week off so we went to Garmisch to stay at the lovely Edelweiss Lodge and do a little hiking.

Leutascher Geisterklamm(Spirit Gorge) Leutasch Austria

The falls colors were so beautiful and we were able to spend good quality time together with out TV's, video games or any other distractions. It was so nice!!!

The pics are small but if you click on them you should be able to get a bigger view.

Exploring Ansbach.

Rathaus

We took a short self guided tour of Ansbach. It really is a beautiful town.

They have a few festivals every year so I am sure you will see more of this place.

Ok so for the most part I have the house in pretty good working order. We are having a blast in this big ol creeky house. You cant take a simple step with out creeking.

Welcome home to us!

We have successfully moved! YAY!

We have had a few hitches but for the most part we love

Love love our new home.

We live on a beautiful busy little street.

Our in house doctor is so wonderful!

The landlord is so very nice but we dont speak

each others language very well.

I am promising to really try working on my

Deutch.

The kids are in school, they moved almost seemlessly.

They have new friends, lovely teachers.

I dont think they really miss Mannheim at all.

They adore riding the bus to school!

Our only pain in the neck at the moment is ...... we

dont have a stove/oven yet,

and we dont know yet when we will get it

so I am putting my crock pot to some good use!!!!!

Good crock pot recipes needed!!!!!

I will be posting videos of our house as soon as I complete the decor.

Hopefully I will be done by this weekend.

I love and miss you all!!!
