Maggie is 2!

Yesterday was Maggie's second birthday.  We started the celebration with birthday donuts for breakfast followed by presents.

She had lots of help with her presents.

LOTS of help.

Almost like it was Cadel's birthday...

Gus and Cormac felt it was important to read the cards.

New sunglasses for her birthday.

Cupcakes!

We were driving down the road and this happened

Yep.  Those are sheep.  Two shepherds and a couple of sheep dogs were herding them across the street.

Bamberg

We arrived in Germany last week.  Since then we have been in a hotel room on post without a car.  So we decided to take the train to Bamberg last weekend and see some of our old haunts.  The kids loved riding the train and had a good time in Bamberg.  I don't have a lot of pictures because as luck would have it we lost one bag on the flight over (the one that had all of the kids booster seats and my really nice camera).  So I used my old iPhone to snap a few pictures.

On the train.

Mr. Train himself.  

Cormac took this shot (I can tell by the little Minion sock).  Cadel was so tired he fell asleep under the table.

Gus hanging out around the Gabelmann statue.

Cool car.  Notice Gus with the Orange Fanta.  He has fallen in love with real Orange Fanta (not the orange drink soda by the same name in the States).  

Pictures by Maggie

Before we moved sneaky Maggie liked to get my phone and take pictures when no one is looking.  Here are a few.  I love how I can always see little feet.

Swimming!

There is nothing better than swimming on a hot day.  While we were in Virginia we went to Granddad's pool a couple of times to do just that.
