For Lolo

I read this quote recently that sums up an important part of the last month.  "The only thing better than having you as my Sister.....is my children having you as their Aunt."  Lolo - of all the things you could have done on your one month off between jobs, you chose to come spend time with us during an ordinary week for us.  For all the energy, noise, and love my kids show you whenever you're here, that's easily how much I love you and grateful I am to have you as my Sister, Best Friend, Godmother, and Aunt to my kids.....so yeah....A LOT! Thank you for visiting us.  Come back soon!


Elise anxiously awaiting Lolo's arrival


New Pajamas from Lolo......again. Thanks to Lolo, the kids have a different set of pajamas for every day of the year.  

Just like our Holiday season, the start to 2016 has been low key and unfortunately also sprinkled with some sickness. Here are a few memories from the last few weeks.  


Wurst Fest! 
Kids will join me during my cheesy old home Pilates video from time to time.  Cracks me up.
 Opa and Paul.  Paul is becoming more and more of a teaser and jokester just like his namesake
 Dress Up Fun
 Our dear friend Dorothy invited the kids over for a fancy Tea Party.  I have never witnessed my kids better behaved at the table than here.  I guess I just need to bring out my finest China to get them to be super careful.
 Opa always buys too much meat.  Better too much than too little.
 Daddy and Elsa providing face painting at a friend's Bday party.  He sews and face paints. Hands off ladies.

Mommy, you are under arrest for saying no to me.
