Breakfast at the Crystal Palace
Most of us had a great breakfast. The chef made Em and I a special tofu dish that was delish and Em happily posed with the characters. Keenan, on the other hand, started out great enjoying the melon and his GF waffle, but then Tigger came along and scared the living daylights out of him! By the end though Keenan was getting the hang of the whole character meet and greet and acquiesced and gave Piglet a high 5. :)

Emma and Grandpa Howe on the Monorail,
heading to Disney for an early morning breakfast reservation. :)
Emma really enjoyed the empty monorail. She loved climbing up and swinging around the pole. Please Lord, please tell me this will not impact her future career plans!! ;-)

Valentine's Day 2012
Keenan LOVED his Mickey Mouse card from Emma that played the "Hot Dog" song! He played with it for hours, yes literally HOURS!! Emma was pretty happy with her new peace bag and she had a lot of fun handing out valentines to her friends at school. :) She also loved the heart shaped hard boiled egg Mama made for her lunch, along with heart shaped kiwi and a myriad of other valentinesy food. :)

Time for another Fasching Party!
To celebrate carnival the German school holds a traditional Facshingsfeier. As always there was much fun to be had! Great performances and cute costumes! :)

Images that make me smile! :) I love seeing my kids this happy! ♥

RIP Frida Katlo; we will miss you!
Saying Good bye to our old kitty Frida was very hard. She was a barn cat that I adopted my first year living in Germany. She was a sweet girl who will be missed.
