Winter Stuff !!

Hello All

Here are a couple of photos from Charly's second ski school week where she won a silver medal. The 8 year olds and older were 22.14 secs and she managed 25 secs for the same course so not bad at all really. No trophy this time though.









Also some general pikkies from fun in the garden ! There is not so much snow really but enough to be silly in !








Got some nice icicles hanging off the workshop and also a look at the Curling/Eisstockschiessen lane.





Charly with her back protector - she looks like a turtle now !



PS. Thanks for the notes from Mum & Dad/Oma & Opa and also Ria & Frits - always love reading them.

Love to you all ! Lara, Mike & Charly xxxooo

New Years Eve Party 2009

Hello All

Happy New Year to you all out there.

We had a fantastic night ! We were invited to friends for a New Year's Eve party. Tania is a Kiwi and she is married to Andy from Bavaria. They have two kids Harlee and Henry ! There were about 40 adults and 30 kids all toll ! The theme was men dressed as women and women dressed as men ! Mike and I decided to do something different so we were a brother and a nun !

Everyone brought a plate of food with them and the buffet was amazing. They had disco lights and great music (computer DJ system) and everyone had a fantastic time till 3am - even the kids. They had a pile of DVD's in the TV room and they just all played really well together all night. Charly's New Year's Eve dinner consisted of chips but hey that was what she wanted so why not !

At midnight it was really foggy but you could see our fireworks for the kids which they loved. Charly ran around saying "Happy New Year" to all her friends which was really cute.

Here are some photos:
