Silver Medal Winner - Ski School Race

Hello All

Today Charly had her first ski school race and she won a silver medal for second place. She managed the 100m slalom in about 24 secs. Her best friend did it in 42 secs. The winner was a 5 1/2 year old with 22 secs so well done Charly!!! I made a video of the race hence no photos of her actually doing it but here is the course and the happy racer at the end in her special vest. She can handle the t-bar no problems now as well.




Also some photos of the prizegiving where Bobo the penguin arrived and madam had to show him her Bobo ski socks.

Xmas Gymnastics Show

Hello all

At the weekend we had the Annual Xmas Gymnastics Christmas Show at the Sportpark here in Kitzbühel. Charly took part in the Kindergarten section with her teacher Rosi and all the other kids and she did really well. They had a great time and she even got her photo in the paper ! They were busy running around with steering wheels in their hands like racing cars - cute !

Here are some photos:




In case you can't see her she is the one with the little plaits in the middle of the first picture. Pink camo pants with a green short sleeved Sponge Bob t-shirt. This was the photo that was in the local paper. Sprinting along ! You can't really see her in the other photos though.

Final Photos

Hey People

Here are just a few photos of the finished house. I still have to shoot some more but these are a few arty farty ones as well as the normal room shots. Hope you like the look of it all.




We are really enjoying all the room - 170 sqm. The old place was 50 sqm so a big difference. You can see the architect's (Mike) style coming out all over the place with the mix of old and new and we love it.





Just to explain - the upper floor with the couch and our bed will in future be the lounge/kitchen/dining area but we will be doing that in a few years time. My painting room is also up here. In the meantime we are cooking and eating downstairs and this will become two bedrooms and two bathrooms in a few years. Charly is going to get what is now the play corner, living and dining area as her room as we have enough space upstairs for us two and we will move into her old bedroom. The main thing was to do all the new walls, wiring, heating and plumbing first - the nasty stuff.







Charly enjoys having her play corner and room to really run around.


Hoping all of you are fit and well. Drop by and leave a comment if you want.

Love us 3 in Kitz xxxooo
