carson and mikayla chillin

Carson Ray Wichman is my very first boyfriend, he's 6 weeks younger than i am, and a Gemini. This was our first picnic on the Mosel with our families. On our Mosel cruise daddy frogot to check to see where the boat actually dropped us off -- it was 1 mile from where the car was parked -- oops. We waited for him on a picnic table and enjoyed the German summer.

mosel cruise with friends

mum and pop said i had to wear a hat to protect me from the sun, but this is shear craziness. I won't be able to see any of the scenery passing by -- i cant wait until i can use my hands better to fix this stuff.
we met all our friends at the kloster machern and set sail on my very first boat trip....
daddy made sure i was happy and content
our friends kirstin and jeff arrived from Michigan that very day...3 hours later they were drinking wine on the Mosel.
They said the drinking age was young in Germany, but this is ridiculous. This is a photo of me after Germany lost to Spain in the Eurocup.

the weather was perfect and so was the day

our furry friends and family



my squeaky little friend who sings me to sleep and my guardian angel who also cleans my ears and protects my toys.

european travels






Mikayla is a great traveller with the help of Auntie Tashy. At 3 weeks we headed to Amsterdam and Keukenhof gardens. By the age of 5 weeks she had already been to 5 countries (Belgium, France, Luxembourg, Germany, and the Netherlands). Next on our list -- back to the states and Norway in August.

baths and naps





Lots of splashing followed by lots of ZZZZZ's. I am especially fond of the ZZZZZ's with the wee one.

the first few days






Mikayla arrived on 31 March 2008 at 8:03 am. It has been a blur since then.

germany news


We're a couple months late starting our blog. So the next few blog entries will be getting people up to speed. Then hopefully we'll keep doing these entries in chronological order -- I cant promise anything. Enjoy!
