The End is in Sight
Here in ohio, we have had below freezing temperatures for over two weeks & it has gotten very old. On most days I see single digit numbers on the car's thermometer when I start it in the morning. Not this morning. When I started the car, the thermometer read 22 degrees... practically a heat wave. the high today is expected to be 37 degress.
Where are my sandals?

Ice Boobies
As you are all aware, my brother Scott gave away a set of molds to make a boobie ice sculpture during our Christmas gift exchange. Being the men that we are, we needed to see a boobie ice sculpture. I thought you all might want to see the results.

p.s. One boobie ice sculpture mold, for sale cheap. Only been used once. For inquiries, contact Judee.

Happy New Year
Hello all,
happy new year to all of you. We’ve returned from our 1 week trip to North Germany yesterday afternoon and had a wonderful time there. Little Tim was unbelievable. He didn’t make any trouble during this long ride so we’ve traveled more relaxed than I ever expected. We prepared his food in the car so he was satiesfied. You must know that the most important thing for him currently is to get a regular meal! :-)
Wether was great – no rain during the whole week. It was cold but the air was fresh and I think it was doing good for all of us including this little guy, although he slept most of the time when we went for a walk. I think you can see it at the picture with his red cheeks.
I’ll have another day off tomorrow and have to be back in the office on Thuesday. So I’ll try to relax the rest of my vacation because the next 4 months will be very exhausting.
Attached please find some impressions of our trip and of course some of the most fotographed baby in the whole world (I really believe).

Merry Christmas
Hello dear friends,
here is someone who likes to wish all of you a merry Christmas and a happy new year.
Secondly I would like to say sorry for not doing more post on the blog but I was completely overloaded with work. Now my vacation has started and therefor I’m feeling pretty well. On Saturday next week Katie, little Tim and I will go to north Germany at the coast of “North Sea”, somewhere northwest of Hamburg for a week. We’ve rented a house with Jo and Jeanette (and of course Aldo) and hopefully will have a good time. I’m really curious how little Tim will look, when he’ll see the “big pond” for the first time. Anyway, we’ll wave to you.
Our Christmas tree this year is smaller than usual because we’ll leave on December 27. But that doesn’t matter. Katies Mom told us years ago that she’ll have another Christmas tree not before she’ll have her first grandchild. So some weeks ago I said to her: “Hey Mom, it seems you’ll have to buy a tree this year”, and she did. I’ve been there today and she bought a really big one.
Commonly we’ll visit my father on December 24 in the afternoon and then go to Katies Mom in the evening to celebrate Christmas eve. This year we decided to stay at home. We don’t want to pack all the things you need for a little boy in our car. So we’ve invited the family to our house. I think I will put something in the pizza oven in the back yard and we’ll have our celebration here. Little Tim is absolutely fascinated about all the lights in the tree.
Please let me not finish without wishing you a warm, happy Christmas, a wonderful 2009 and thank all of you for your friendship.

Pictures from the North Georgia Mountains
Holgar, I wanted to thank you for sharing the highlights of Tim's trip and the beautiful pictures.
I loved the "Short trip to France. What a great place to go. I can't imagine hiking past a castle. What fun. When you talk about going to France or Spain or Switzerland, etc. it sounds like such a long way and we forget that all of the countries are so close to each other.
Tom and I spent several days in the North Georgia mountains last week and the leaves are just beginning to turn. The Sourwood Trees are always the first to change color in the fall so I'm adding pictures so you can see "my mountains"
This is the view we get from our deck. We have an RV up there, I think you call it a caravan. It sits on 5 1/2 acres and we love it.

It was a rainy, drizzly day but I love to see the mist rising from the mountain. Our leaves will be in full color in about two to three weeks.

Please tell Katie hello for me and give Little Tim a big hug
Don't forget to post new pictures of Little Tim.
Oh, by the way, I enjoyed talking to you last week.
