Happy Easter ( Frohe Ostern)


Here in Germany for Easter they decorate the dried up wells that are no longer in use. The first one is in our town of Erlau the second is then the second town from us called Stegarauch. There are some that are very simple and some that are very elaborate with life sized figurines. The last picture is of the the start of the easter egg hunt on base. Cody is the middle one in the blue on blue coat. It was snowing and sleeting that day and has been everyday since. Feels like December rather than almost April.

Below are a few pics from Cody's Kids party at the bowling lanes on post. You all didnt really think he would only have a family party at Hooters did ya? My friend Lisa Morales made the cake and It was as fantastic in taste as in looks. One and all had alot of fun and they gave Cody a old bowling pin that he had all his guests sign.


Hope you liked the pics and look next week for some new ones. Greg and I are going to Paris on the 5th of April on a day trip just the two of us this time as it is an adults only trip. The kids will go on the next trip there so they can see all the sights too! Also the end of April we will be going to the Tulip Parade and Fest in the netherlands so keep checking back.
Love to All

Hooters???!!! In Germany???

Well as most of you know We started a tradition when Cody was born (our redneck roots showing here) to take him to Hooters ON his birthday everyyear. This year however I was thinking that we would have to begin a new more (not so redneck) sofisticated tradition because now we are living in Europe there cant be Hooters here can there? Sure enough leave it to my husband he found one of the three in Europe (LOL) and we went yesturday morning. It was a very nice day and a beautiful ride to western Germany in a town called Nuenkirtchen. It is near Ramstein Air Force Base (imagine that a Hooters near a military base) We had a great time and I wanted to post pics of our birthday boy on his 7th birthday! We also bought a GPS this week and have begun our spring planning trips. The week after next we are going to go SOMEWHERE so check back for pics.
Love to you All
