Slacker!! Part 2

Then, we went on a little trip...




***blogger is not letting me upload the slideshows of my trips to Berlin and Prague. I will try again another day (or month)***




There was Berlin:












Then there was shopping in Poland for pottery. Here is my loot:










We also did some sightseeing, but were soon on our way to the next stop.


Prague!!!





Slacker!! Part 1




So, since I last posted we've had Easter. Of course, my kids looked super cute! There were also a lot of Easter markets to be visited-because I "needed" the hand painted Easter eggs that Germany has.

Horseback Riding


This past week the kids started on a new adventure-horseback riding! We're going to a horse stable not too far from us. Before they ride the horses they have to brush them, clean their hooves and then help saddle and harness them. Then they go to the arena to practice riding. Right now, it's one on one lessons for them-which is really awesome. They practice riding, and afterwards they help unsaddle the horses and then feed them. It's a great opportunity for them to learn riding AND how to take care of the horses.

Disney Paris




This last month we took a little trip to EuroDisney. It was everything I expected and MORE! We had so much fun! We stayed at one of the Disney hotels so we were in walking distance of the park. We rode rides, drank hot chocolate, and just had a complete blast for three FULL days! And we were introduced to a whole new world-pin trading! The kids had so much fun trading and collecting the pins.



















Christmas!




Just a few pictures from Christmas.


Kaitlin's Birthday






Soooo...it's been awhile since I've updated this. Anyway, back to the subject of Kaitlin's birthday. On her birthday we had cupcakes and she opened her presents from us. She was so excited to get a camera from us!






We celebrated a few days afterwards this year. There was a big snow storm that day, but it didn't keep anyone away. We did her party at the post movie theater. We watched The Princess and the Frog. The kids also were given a tour of the movie theater, and learned how the movies are shown on the big screen. Everyone had a good time, and there was no clean up for mom:)
