We took a side trip to Dringenberg to visit the rest of the family. Here are Sabine's cousines (Pia and Sebastian) with Sabine's kids.
I ended up drinking with the uncle and Sebastian. We eventually headed to the one bar in town. When I went to pee I discovered this in the bathroom.
It is what it looks like.
The castle from the Grimm Brothers' Sleeping Beauty (for real).
There hasn't been much snow so the kids were thrilled.
Sleeping beauty left a good two maybe three hundred years ago.
There's a zoo next door. It snowed some more.
Ride the train!
Owl.
Oma. Opa.
Kuchen. Kaffee.
See! Opa really was a soldier!
A bull market.
"Mom, it's a really good thing you didn't buy these when you were thinking about it because the Easter Bunny brought both books!"
Anything that looks like a rope in our house is tied in a triple night every night. We got tired of it so Sabine, er, the Easter Bunny bought these ropes extra for the kids.
You would think he drew a picture of the chick. You would be wrong. That is actually dad and he is just showing us the chick.
"I am going to be upstairs all day knitting. I need quiet when I knit."
