Outside-Inside

June 10, 2010

Photos I took while walking outside. We walked around inside our village. My kids are never bored here because of all the animals. We are enjoying a perfect day. I hope all of you are as well.

Hot day

May 24, 2010

Spent…Playing outside, hanging out laundry, biking, walking, eating and drinking lots of water. We are all a little sunburned in spite of putting on an extra thick layer of sunscreen. I forgot how strong the sun can be in the mountains.

Swiss cows in the Jura

May 22, 2010

And, a cat by the train tracks. Happy Weekend, everyone! My In-laws will be here at lunch time. They called last night from Goumois, France which is just at the Swiss border.  :) She was interested enough in me to not walk away. However, she wasn’t ready to come over for a scratch either. The [...]

May 19, 2010

I have mailed off our signed lease to the landlord of our new apartment. It is official now. We know our next address! Vilay couldn’t visit the apartment with me due to work and school.  So, he will only see our next home the day we collect the keys! Now if that isn’t trust I [...]

Walk this way…

May 16, 2010

We took an hour walk around the village before lunch. It was a bit chilly outside. We hope that soon it will be warmer. No matter, the walk was still perfect. All images are clickable to view larger. A ant colony that we have watched for three years through all the seasons. It is as [...]

Where my heart is

May 12, 2010

Currently listening to the kids at recess (always 10 a.m.). My first grader is there somewhere in the mixture of running and ball bouncing that I see from my window as I type this. We will move at the end of June into our next home. Every day I walk by the apartment building we [...]

Walking with my son

May 11, 2010

My son and I took over an hour and half walk today. We walked around the village and a little outside of the village. A few drops of rain forced us to pull up our hoods of our coats time to time. Mostly, it was clear and perfect for walking. We stood for several minutes [...]

Spring air

April 18, 2010

We got a walk in yesterday. It was so nice. The kids rode their bikes and they loved it. We were headed home full of happiness only to be told by someone that they didn’t get their bike out today because it was too cold. She actually told me that with my kids riding along [...]

The end of the snow

April 9, 2010

I took the photos below last week before we left to visit Strasbourg. We took a walk around our village with my Inlaws. The girls were so happy that they could ride their bikes. The snow is all gone now except for some patches here and there at the very top of the mountain.  The [...]

We have been getting rain the last few days. It doesn’t bother me because it isn’t the freezing cold rain of winter. It is a spring rain. :)

Le Soleil

March 26, 2010

Emmie Cat had been enjoying the beautiful sun for about a week. Emmie stretched and slept in the sun most of last week from her chair.  One of three that she claims as her own. Today, it rained and it snowed. I am sure that even Emmie is missing the sun and is ready for [...]

Spring is in the air

March 17, 2010

Even my cat can smell it! She is acting even more what I like to call “cat crazy” this week! She runs, bounces off furniture and meows…All the time. She is adorable. I opened up our windows to let in the fresh air like I do every single day at least twice a day. Emmie [...]

The rest of that walk we took and the one through life that goes to quickly

March 14, 2010

It is already Sunday! Where did the days from last week scamper off too? I recently realized the girls only have about four more months left of school this year. After summer, M will go on to second grade, C will start first grade and go to the “big school” with her sister and E [...]

Warmer

March 12, 2010

The very next day after my last post (complaining about the freezing weather here) the weather was warmer. It was almost normal. Today, it was still warmer. No wind. I am a happy girl.  :) In celebration of the lovely weather, we took a walk today up a little mountain road near our village. It [...]
