Washing the SUV

Last Saturday we had a nice day out that Seth and Kooper spent the Morning washing the cars. Seth showed Kooper how it was done, and Kooper just loved getting to help out with it all. Nothing like getting to playing in the water and the bubbles at the same time.

There they are together.

Here Kooper is making his dad proud.

Dadddy and Kooper hard at work.

One more picture just to show how hard they were working on my SUV.

Thanks guys for getting it so clean.

Mother's Day

Mother's day was just the way that I wanted it to be. I got to sleep in till 8:00 and then we got ready to go to church. After church we came home and I wanted to paint Madelyn's room so that is what we spent the afternoon doing, she was so happy when it was all do. Seth said on the days that you don't have to do anything you choose the the funniest stuff to do. After that we just spent the rest of the day hanging out and doing nothing which was great.

The kids and I as they were playing out side.

Madelyn took this picture of Seth and I, she did a really good job.

Madelyn made this for me at school, this was my gift from her.

She planted this flower for me as well.

My flowers from Seth and the kids.

Mexican Dance

Madelyn takes dance from a German lady here and she loves it. She has dance one night a week for an hour, they are doing a Mexican dance and a Flower dance this time I am not for sure what they will be doing after summer break. She has just performed the Mexican dance, about two weeks ago and will perform both daces on June 5th at their recital. As you will see in the pictures below they all get to wear different customs, the teachers just lets you pick your own custom, which all the girls love because they like to see each others. All the girl are so proud of their own customs but at the same time love to see what their friends customs look like as well. We will post pictures of Madelyn other custom as soon as I get pictures of her in it. Enjoy the pictures.

Toby Keith

We went last Saturday to Toby Keth's 8th USO Tour. It was a free concert for all the military and there families here in Germany. We got to the concert about 6:00 pm and there were a ton of people out there waiting to get in, I could not believe the amount of people that had come to see him. The concert did not start until 8:00 and the people were still coming by the hand full. I would say by the time the concert started there had to be about five thousand people there to see him play. It was a great concert, he truly does a great job, it is so great of him to come over here an put these concerts on for our troops and there families. Here are a few picture of that night, I took 150 pictures from that night but I only put a few on here. Enjoy!

KeuKenhof Holland

Tulip, tulips, tulips! A photographer's dream.... must see. These gardens are amazing when in full bloom(April/May). Bulbs and other flowers are planted in layers, so plenty of color is seen from Mar-May. They have the most beautiful flowers here to see, and a tone of them you could spend all day here to see all the flowers.

Amsterdam

We started off our weekend last weekend in Amsterdam. Let me just say WOW, it is crazy there. They have crazy drivers and you really have be on the ball when it comes to driving around. Seth was on edge driving though there but he did great. We went to Amsterdam just to go to the Anne Frank House. It was really neat to see the house where she lived, Madelyn really liked it also Kooper was a little young but that was ok. Here are a few pictures from Amsterdam.

Madelyn and Kooper waiting for Mommy and Daddy to decided where we are going next.

This is what we say right when we got into Amsterdam.

Meet our Neighbor boy!

We have the nicest German neighbor's that live just to the left of us. The husband and wife speak very good english, their little boy Luke doesn't speak any english at all. Before they had Luke they lived in the United States for 3 years, for his work took him to the US to work and she went a long also. Our kids love to play with Luke and he loves to play with them. There is not problem with the fact that he doesn't speak English or the fact that they don't speak German. They just have fun playing together. Go we would love for you all to meet their new friend Luke. Here is a picture of him.
