Heidelberg, Germany

Well, we are into week two of summer and I can't say we have done much.  I went to upload some photos of this past week and the picture below popped up and I have no idea how or why.  But it was a cute little photo of the kids when they were little and then as I was looking at the photo I noticed the crib railing.... can you believe that!!  Gee whiz one of the kids had a complete meal!  In our defense it looks like Pascal and I tried to put some type of plastic over it.  A big deterrent that was!  It looks like they just gnawed more to the left!  How ironic that I also made our first orthodontist appointments for  BOTH of the kids today!  

 Meg did a road race with me.  She rode her bike and I was so proud of her for doing it!  She never got tired or complained.  This was a road race for Fallen Soldiers.  They were giving away dog tags of fallen soldiers at the race. When we came home I typed in the names we were given on the computer and up came their pictures and information about them.  It was so sad.

This group carried a stretcher the entire race.

 Meg and I loved this guys enthusiasm!

 Here we are crossing the finish line!  Way to go Meg!

Meg is into writing Acrostic poems.  Here is mine:

                  The neighbors put up a swing and Meg and Owen love it!

Owen skated for 4 hours on the ice on Saturday and then played roller hockey with a friend yesterday for 3 hours.  When I looked at his ankles shins I cringed.

In this picture I said Owen what is that white stuff and he said, "oh, Mom that is toilet paper I figured that would help."  I told him to take a break from skating today but when I looked out the window he was skating again!! and wearing my piping socks!!  the way a 10 year old boy thinks makes me smile!

 Get a load of this outfit.  Meg does not leave the house without a hat these days.  The ticks apparently are really bad this season and we have had two already so Meg likes to wear a hat!

They were offering free snow cones to residents on post so we walked down to grab one!
