Austin's Christmas program song

This year @ Children's Learning Academy, Austin is in the PreK class & is doing WONDERFUL! We tried German Immersion for a few months but with the curriculum being kindergarten & 1st grade level it was just WAY too advanced for Austin & to say the least, Austin was not the same little boy! He had a rough time. So now he has been in PreK for a month & progressing wonderfully & is SO smart....we are having a Christmas Program December 12 & here I have attached a video of Austin singing the 2 songs their class will be singing! It's so stinking cute!!!


Love you all!

A new post.....FINALLY! July/August 2009

As most of you know-we have been SO busy! So I figured I had a few min. to update everyone. Steve is doing great working @ the NCOA(non commissioned officers academy) The kids & I are having SO much fun @ Children's Learning Academy-where Austin is attending Germany Immersion (like Kindergarten mainly English, & German is taught) Sierra is attending the babies class & meeting new friends (& the favorite of the class since she's so darn cute & funny!) & I am teaching the 2year old class & having SO much fun! We are loving life & enjoying every minute we are over here & traveling every chance we get!

Above are pictures at the barfusspfad in Bad Sobernheim(barefoot hike) it's this neat flat walk with lots of textures & different obstacles to walk over-all while you are barefoot! It was so fun!! Even Sierra enjoyed walking through the mud!

During the championship games we opted to go best 3 out of 5 games instead of the 2 out of 3 we had been playing so by the time we ALL were done playing it was after midnight!!!

A few shots of me playing volleyball.







The next 3 pics are of Austin doing a flip over the bar for his 1st time, his expression in the last one is priceless!!




Yay! Daddy finally got to Alconbury & mommy was done playing, so we went & played at the park.
