October with Charlie and Nedra - 2022 (second half)

Since I worked all of September 

(fiscal year close out) 

...and ignored the kids and my parents while Jill was in Seattle helping Dri, 

I took a bunch of days off in October before my parents flew back to Utah.  

This is some of our adventures.

We met with my (Mike's) 7 cousins in France in my Great-Great Grampa's village 

(he left for America around 1835)

As the guest of honor, Mom got the key to the church

This is where Great-Great Grandpa was baptized.

Likewise for many of his ancestors.

Nedra and Severine...BFFFs  

(Best French Friends Forever)

We had a family lunch...

... and a bigger family dinner

Playing Trash

Eating trash (or something yummy)

Chloe being beautiful

Eating, my dad's favorite family activity. 

Watching General Conference

Ike, very focused

Rex, very comfortable

Ike...still focused

You can't spend time at our house without 

spending time with the chickens

Moon over my housey

I miss Alsenborn's beautiful sunsets and the wonderful field behind our house.  

Halt! Schnitzel Zeit!

Driving to Bernkastel-Kues we found a vineyard with a view.

Biking to the Labyrinth

Always love a Labyrinth run

Flammkuchen

Chloe showing off her mad skills. 

I'm pretty sure this is a response to something I made her find.

Mittelburg on the Neckar

Above Heidelberg

Ike's choice of activity is almost always bowling or mini-golf

I love it when they get along...even if it just "kind of" getting along.  

More walks and sunsets.

Backyard photo shoot.

Rex's true nature always involves chickens.

Good by Grandma and Grandpa. 
We loved having you visit!
