Hello All!!!

Hope everyone out there had a great day today. Brenna and I had some fun with a lunch picnic in her room (she loved this and wanted to do supper there as well) and also colored some Easter eggs. Brenna thought the eggs were much too hot, so it wasn't as interesting to her as the set up, but oh well.

We leave for Venice on Friday (our trip will include Venice, Florence, and Pisa) - hopefully we will have a great time. They are calling for rain most of the days we are traveling, but what can you do. Hopefully, it won't be constant. At least I have most of the memory sticks for the cameras cleaned off. Just have one stick to do tomorrow and the packing...

Well, I am off to relax for the evening. Dustin is out playing volleyball with our landlord.
Take Care!

Hello All!!!

It was another really nice day here in Germany today. We managed to take the dog out for a nice long walk this afternoon. Brenna didn't sleep well last night so we didn't have much of a morning - we were both too tired to do much, lol.

Happy birthday to my niece Alexis today - hope you have a great day (and hopefully you got our birthday wish song!)

Take Care!

Hello All!!

Hope everyone out there had a great day. The weather continues to be beautiful here - Brenna loves just hanging out on the balcony :-) Brenna took a run with Dustin today in her stroller.

Not too much else going on - just enjoying the nice weather. I found that I could walk to the local store today and get my needed groceries and get back to the apartment in about 8 minutes today. I ran out while Dustin was playing with Brenna and the pizza was in the oven. I made it back in plenty of time to take the pizza out of the oven, lol!

Happy birthday wishes go out to my Grandma Heath today - hope you had a great day!

Take Care!

Hello All!!

Hope everyone is doing well out there today. We had a quiet cleaning day today. I took Justice for a nice long walk this morning and Dustin was able to get out on his bike today as well :-)

With not much else going on today I thought I would share some more pictures from the zoo yesterday - hope you enjoy them.

Take Care!

Take a picture of the animals, dad!

Hello All!!!

We had an enjoyable day at the zoo today. It seems that we have been enjoying the zoos over here more than in the US - not sure if it is Brenna's joy or the beautiful gardens that accompany the zoos we have been to :-) The weather was absolutely beautiful - perfect day for the zoo and the animals were all easy to find and see (great for Brenna). She loved the petting zoo part - she got to pet two miniature horses, but didn't get to feed them as the machine just took our money, but didn't give us any food... The flowers at the zoo were really pretty and we had to hold Brenna back from picking them all, lol. Brenna did not want her picture taken today - can you tell from all the side shots??? The pelicans were right on the walking path today - Brenna wanted to go right up to them and pet them. We weren't as sure about them - but our picture looks like we got plenty close :-)

Well, that is it for today :-)

Take Care!

Hello All!!

Hope all is going well out there. We have had some really nice days here this week. Brenna and I have enjoyed going to the park and playing and Justice has enjoyed some longer walks :-) He loves to see more people out and especially those that stop and pet him.

We enjoyed a barbeque with some friends today - it was great to relax and let Brenna play with other kids. She seems to really enjoy playing with older kids - she has no fears about going right up to them at the park as well.

Air traffic was crazy with helicopters today as the President is in my "neighborhood". I'm sure this will probably be the closest I ever get to him, lol.

We hope to enjoy the zoo tomorrow.

Take Care!

Hello All!!

Hope all is well out there on this April Fool's day :-) It was colder today than the last couple, but it is supposed to warm up again tomorrow.

Brenna and I made it to kinder group today - she had lots of fun painting (both with a brush and her fingers - what could be better, lol). We also managed to take Justice for a little walk today. Not as long as I would like, but we needed to get back home and make supper.

The house next door had a major party for the person's 50th birthday today - they had a band and fireworks. The band was pretty loud, but at least all will be quiet by 10. Brenna thought the tree they had decorated at their house looked like a Christmas tree. It has ballons as the decoration :-)

Well, that is it for today!

Take Care!
