Dining with the family

Ah, the joys of Germany. Dining al fresco with the family. Look, they even let me sit in the dinner chair. Now that is what I consider a civilized culture. Wake up, America (hee hee).

Christening the lawn furniture

It may be hard to tell, but I'm sitting on one of those green plastic Adirondack-style lawn chairs.

Do you know what that means?

Yes, it means the lawn furniture has been taken out of storage, and therefore Spring must surely have arrived. Woo hoo.

Froggin' in the pond can't be too far behind (hee, hee).

Cool, funky chair

Check out this awesome chair. Mom and Alpha found it in Grandma's barn. From the 1950's they're sure. Didn't have any cushions with it, so Mom bought these pillows.

And they are going to give it to Alli (there is also a matching rocker). Alli is such a lucky girl.
