Alarm Clock

I'm told that people who live next to train tracks don't even hear the train passing by after they've lived there a while. We thought that maybe that would be the case with our "Church Bells", however, we've yet to tune them out. Now, the tunes they play are not offensive, in fact, its rather nice to the casual listener. However, when its Saturday morning and there's a chance your kids are gonna sleep-in (till 8am), you not very interested in the local church bell concert at 6:30am. But alas, we can't escape it, they wake us daily at 6:30am, and on the odd chance we fall back asleep at say, 6:50am, they get us again at 7:00 and 7:3o, etc... So, we thought we'd share the melodies of our mornings with our readers. Sit back for the 2 plus minutes and experience it for yourself.

Fun in Konigsdorf

As promised here are some videos from our Konigsdorf castle day. You will notice there is no video of the actual castle, but hopefully you will enjoy watching the kids having some fun. In the first video, Alianna is pretending to be a fountain and in the second, Landon is just being Landon and exploring an alley.
I hope everyone has a great week! For those of you who keep us in your prayer circles, I would like to request a special prayer for the next two weeks. Our new friend, Frau Schumacher, is with her adult daughter in Dusseldorf and then Munich. Her daughter is undergoing some special cancer treatment that has been brought in from the states. She hasn't given me much detail, but it sounds experimental. Frau Schumacher is Catholic and has been lighting a candle everyday. Please keep them in your prayers that the treatment is successful and that her doctors are able to help her in her battle. (Her name is Angela).
