Bike parades

Yearly the Primary in our ward organizes a flag day bike parade. All the kids gathered and decorated their bikes red white and blue. Elizabeth got lots of help. She didn't even have to get off her bike. They did a great job decorating.


Look at the pretty necklace and bracelet. She insisted on wearing them to the parade.

Some of our cute neigbor girls all decorated :)

Just a few days later we did another bike parade with some of her cousins.

They had a wonderful crowd to cheer them on.

The kids had so much fun biking up and down the street.

Nice hair

When I was younger (I mean really young) my mom would braid my hair so it would be wavy the next morning. I thought this would be fun to do with Elizabeth. She was quite excited when I told her about it.

This is what it looked at at night:

The next morning:

They love apples!

Apples equals candy at our home. Whenever possible Thomas will climb on the table to try to get an apple to eat. As you can see Elizabeth loves them too.

We eat them with our friends,

out on the lawn,

in the high chair,

hiding in the cup board,

lounging in a chair in the backyard with a beautiful hat on,

being fancy in the back yard

and while hanging out together.

Dinkelsbuhl and Rothenburg

I am finally going to finish blogging about our Europe trip. This post will be a picture overload again but it will be the best way to share our experience. Both Dinkelsbuhl and Rothenburg were beautiful little cities that have been very well preserved.

Dinkelsbuhl:

Rothenburg:

We climbed the tower on the city square and had this beautiful view of the city and its surroundings.





All around the city you could find window displays with these treats. They were called "schneeballen" aka snowballs. These round baked treats are traditionally coated in powdered sugar, but some can be had in chocolate as well. They looked very pretty and tasty but honestly when I tried one I didn't really care for it.


Our hotel was situated on one of the outer walls of the city. This was the view (to our sides) from our hotel room.

This was really a great trip. It was wonderful to travel with Jane and Marlynn. They were great travel partners!
