Summertime Part 2

There have been a few more additions to our photo collection. The boys have been enjoying some recent warm weather to play with their friends.

Summertime in Deutschland

We have added some photos to the Gallery from recent summertime excursions. These include: (1) Kaiserslautern Zoo with Lizzie, (2) Jack's German School 3-week reunion at Yabadoo playland in our village of Mehlingen, (3) Independence Day Fest on Ramstein AFB, (4) Altstadt Fest in Kaiserslautern, (5) Brezelfest in Speyer, Germany near Mannheim/Heidelberg, and then (6) resting with Handy Manny after this long day of fun!

Kindergarten Class Photos

Jack's first school photos from Kindergarten are in the Gallery. We weren't made aware that is was picture day, so he was not exactly dressed for the occasion.

The next Radio boy has arrived!

For those who don't know, and may be checking our blog... Tim and Naomi welcomed Noah Stephen Radio into the world late on June 24. I am sure details will follow on their blog. Congratulations!

Vienna and Mehr Fußball

We had a wonderful extended weekend in Wein (Vienna). Unknowing to us, our trip coincided with Euro2008, a huge soccer tournament between European National teams.

We flew this time and our plane landed in Bratislava, Slovakia. A short bus trip took us to our hotel in Vienna. Eli loved his new stroller (Mommy's birthday gift!) and Jack his new ride-along "booty-board" (better known as a buggy board). We toured the Old City, rode the trams and undergrounds, played at the sprawling Schönbrunn Palace, swam at the hotel in our newly purchased swimwear, cheered with the soccer crazies in the Wein Fan Zone, and enjoyed local delicacies.

Bamberg and Fussball

Last weekend we made the trip to historic Bamberg to Farewell all of the TDS attorneys leaving Europe this summer. The city is called the Rome of Germany due to its 7 hills and churches. We had a great time and ate some good food. We even found rice and beans for Jack (Eli ate his fair share too).

Jack started another round of kindersports. This week he tried his foot at soccer. Although since last week was basketball, he had a hard time understanding why he couldn't dribble with his hands. Jack likes spending time with his friend Lizzie from German School.

LEGOLAND

Our trip to Legoland is complete. The boys had a blast playing at this amusement part about 3 hours to our southeast between Stuttgart and Munich. We stayed in the quaint town of Gunzburg, with a nice marktplatz where we enjoyed a few restaurants and Eis cafes. Even Oscar made the trip.

PA Visit: Spring '08

We all enjoyed our trip home to Pennsylvania. Mom and Dad thank everyone for the brief time off. The boys loved visiting with all the grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles, and friends.
