November 13, 2011. Sölden - days 3 and 4. So we finished up our ski vacation with yet 2 more beautiful days. The weather was warm, sunny, and no wind! This trip was just like a spring ski trip - just the way Madeline and I like it! Here's a few more pictures from the last 2 days. Like father, like children: no fear. Don't worry, they all landed without falling! Loved this guys hat so much, I asked if I could take a picture. Angry Bird. The overall thought of the trip - two thumbs up from these two. Brad ...

November 16, 2010. My neighbor, Annett, made this delicious pumpkin bread (kurbisbrot) for us several months ago. We have these wonderful Hokkaido pumpkins the Germans use for everything. I took a stab at translating the recipe and converting to metric measures. The final product tasted as good as is looks! Great, warm with fresh pumpkin squash soup! November 13, 2010. Happy 8th Birthday, Jack! While skiing in Austria, Jack celebrated his 8th birthday; another one to remember! November 12, 2010. We were ...

February 21, 2011. A Modern Day Piano Lesson. We had to most wonderful piano teacher last year from March-June. Both Madeline and Jack were learning by leaps and bounds. The sad news.she moved back to the states to attend college. After spending the last 6 months trying to find a suitable replacement, we came up with an idea! Why not try piano lessons via Skype 5,000 miles away. Jerin seemed up to the challenge! So we must run an ether-net cable from upstairs to downstairs! It's been an awesome opportuni...

July 13, 2011. Vacation - Part 2. So here's part 2 of our vacation. After leaving Chicago, we headed to Cincinnati to visit with my parents.

August 09, 2011. Quote of the Day - by Jack Borke. Well, I know I haven't finished posting from our long summer vacation; but, this was so funny I had to post the quote of the day! While trying to teach Jack something about paying bills and saving for college, he said the funniest thing:. Jack: "Why are you putting money into my college account? Me: "Someday you'll really be thankful for the money to go to college.". Jack: "I wish you'd spent that money on a new DSi for me.". Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

March 30, 2011. A Preacher in the Making. Like father, like son! Querty 11 Space Capsule. The kids have been studying space recently in science. They've also been able to attend several venues at the Stuttgart Planetarium. In their spare time, Madeline and Jack, have turned an old packing box into their "Querty 11" space capsule. The box is so big, that our neighbors called to see if we were moving, as it is visible through Jack's window! Well, it seems I'm on top of everything these days BUT this blog!

December 30, 2010. Hiking the waterfall - winter. We posted pictures of the Bad Urach waterfall this past June - during the summer. Here's a few photos from our trek in the snow today. It was absolutely beautiful and quiet amid the snow! Praying everyone had a wonderful Christmas celebrating the "reason for the season," Jesus. Here's a few snapshots of the kids on Christmas morning! A drawing kit from Auntie Jen and Uncle Angelo - provides hours of entertainment! A new Nerf gun to add to Jack's arsenal!
