Sunday dinner

Lena's friend Laura (an exchange student from Spain) is sleeping over tonight and the kids are making dinner. All I know is it's German fare but the rest is top secret. I found out Laura loves to cook and does about three meals per week at her host home...so I am working on scheduling her for a night here of authentic Spanish food. This could work out well...

Making Mutzen

Here's Lena taking a break from writing a German paper to show me how to make one of her authentic German treats...Mutzen.  It's like a fancy donut hole...only better (and greasier).

She's a pro.

Until next time...

After a nice dinner out with Mom, Dad, Kat and John, we had a hard time saying goodbye to our favorite redhead in the family. Great memories made, and until the next time!

We'll miss you Con!

Fun gifts

Kathleen and John got the kids fleeces with cute hats to match. So cute!

The kids had a LOT of cousin time this week, they had a blast!
