Happy Birthday Melissa!!!

Melissa, we wish you all the best.
Hope you come back to Germany soon!!!!

Sweet morning times

I think I don`t need to write a whole lot. Those pics speak for themselve.
Stella and Lucien are so sweet with eachother and I think it`s crazy how much they look alike at the moment

Surprise Package!!!!

We received a package last week and I said to the postman: `I wonder what Ricky ordered this time` and he replied: `It`s nothing from a bikeshop, it`s a package from the US` (Funny that even he realizes Rickys bike passion).
Anyway, it was a package from my dear friend Ryndee and her family.The Root family were our neighbours here in Neulussheim and we became close friends before they moved back to the States in 2007( Wow, is it really this long ago? Time flies)
Ryndee,
thank you so much for the great gifts you had send to us.That was so sweet of you!!!
Stella loves her Maggie doll, but to be honest, she loved the wrapping paper, with the lizzards on, even more. For some reason she is crazy about them.We had to cut them out and she is still busy playing `lizzards`. Funny girl!!!!
And Lucien is looking very handsome,wearing his new outfit.
I know that you check this blog and I hope you enjoy seeing the kids grow up. I wish we would hear from eachother more often,but it`s not the quantity, it`s the quality that counts.
We love and miss you all very much

Bikecrash

That`s what happens to you when you are late for dinner ...... Just kidding.
Ricky went biking yesterday and crashed pretty bad. Fortunately he wore all his protective gear and his full face helmet. Still pretty bad. But he feels ok, no doctor needed. Well, soon he will pay our dentist a visit cause he chipped one of his teeth.
What did he learn??????
Nothing, he came home, started to change his flat tire to take another spin today.
That`s my hubby and I love and worry about him soooo much

wow!!!

Just a little thank you to all the people taking time to visit our blog. Traffic here sped up a lot over the last couple days. This is really encouraging for me to keep on going... Thanks
Well, (un)fortunately I`m pretty busy playing this week,cause Stella is off from kindergarten . Two kids at home all day long makes me wonder if we do have tornadoes in Germany, cause my house looks like one hit already. Anyway we went to the libary yesterday and got some new books and games,which we are busy playing. I guess the mess gets picked up sometime this weekend, maybe... maybe later. Let`s have fun first!!!!
I promise to post more this weekend















My cuties!!!!

Wie de Vater so die Tochter......

In the woods...

Stellas Bike hatte einen Platten,weil sie natuerlich, ganz der Papa, rough and tough ueber alle moeglichen Jumps faehrt, die sie finden kann. Deswegen, frueh uebt sich!!! Den Reifen wollte sie unbedingt alleine wechseln.


Filling up the tire and checking the air

This is from last fall already but I love it
