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!

Castles - Linderhof and Neuschwanstein

We visited several castles in soutern germany. The first one was Linderhof and it was beautiful. I don't have any pictures from the inside because we weren't allowed to take any but it was very impressive.









The next one we visited was the Neuenschwanstein castle.





Here are just a few pictures of Elizabeth.
