Pancakes

Daddy and I get up on the weekends and make pancakes. This weekend daddy made all kinds of cool pancakes! He even made my name! Check out my crazy bed hair in this picture.
Check out all these pancakes. We have Mickey Mouse, a bell, a gingerbread boy with blueberries, a star, a tree, a flower, and a car.
Then daddy made some shape pancakes. My daddy is so cool!

Holiday Program

Friday I had my holiday program at school. I sang I want a Hippomatomus for Christmas. We also sang Santa Claus is coming to town. It was so much fun, mommy and daddy were there.

Here is daddy and I being cheesy with our Cheetos!

Neuschwanstein Castle

On Thanksgiving we decided to drive to see the Neuschwanstein Castle in the Alps. The mountains were "so amazing"! We stopped on the way there at this lake surronded by mountains. We had some leftover bread left from breakfast so we fed the ducks. Then we played on the playground for a little bit but it was cold and snowy so we head for the castle. When we got there we had to take a horse and carriage ride up the road to the castle. That was so neat. Then we had to walk up the hill the rest of the way. That was a little tough for me but I did it. When we went on the tour it was so beautiful inside. I stayed by the tour guide with another little girl, she called us her assistants. Here is a picture of mommy and I. There is St. Mary's bridge in the background. Mommy wanted to go to that bridge to take a picture of that castle but it was to icy and the trail was closed.

Here is all of us on the carriage ride. It was so much fun!

Pictures from Germany-Weekend In Munich

Here are some pictures from our trip to Germany. My mom is sorry that they took so long. This first group is from our weekend in Munich with Andreas and Manuela. This is a picture of Manuela, Andreas and I at a restaurant.
This next one is walking through the Vicktoria Market. We drank fresh juice there, we saw lots of interesting things.
This is daddy eating his rotewurst. Yummy!

Here is Andreas and I waiting at the train station. Andreas was telling me to "stop whining!" It was so funny

Breakfast with Santa

Grammy surprised me at school yesterday! She came to visit me for the weekend. I was so excited! Mommy, Grammy and I drove a long way to Chapel Hill to go have breakfast with Santa at the Carolina Inn. At first I wasn't very happpy about it which made mommy sad, but then once we got in and started eating I was ok. I got to go visit Santa and I asked him for a Baby Annabelle and a Barbie Diamond Castle. Then we talked about when he called to talk to me. Then I got my face painted with a beautiful Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer and glitter. After that a magician came to our table. He had me hold his magic wand and every time it broke! It was so funny. It was fun and I was so happy that grammy came to visit me!

No Pictures!

Mommy wanted to say that she was sorry. She tried to upload more photos but it wasn't letting here. Sorry...

France-Strasbourg

This weekend we left Germany and drove to France. It was about a 3 hour drive from where we were staying in Germany. On the way there we saw all of these towns in the hills. Mommy said we were in the Black Forest. When we got to our hotel last night we parked our car and ran out into the pouring rain. It was so cold. Then we walked around trying to find a restaurant. I tried to get mommy and daddy to eat a McDonalds again but they both said no. We found a pizzeria that was run by an Indian family. Daddy thought that was a very od combination. Mommy ordered Lasagna and daddy ordered a pizza. I shared with them but I did order a drink, a Schweppes. Mommy thought that it was going to be a ginger ale (they didn't have milk or sprite). Here Schweppes is an Indian tonic. It tasted good at first and then it had this really bad taste. I tried it with a lemon but that didn't work either. After that we were still hungry so mommy and daddy took me to McDonalds. I was so excited! Then today we started our day with a pain au chocolat. Mommy insisted that we try one. It was very chocolatly and yummy. Then once mommy and daddy finally figured out the tram (subway) we headed into the city center. When we got off the tram it was snowing and blowing so hard. It was so cold! We finally made it to the catherdral. We watched a presentation on the astronomical clock. It was a video about a very, very old clock in this very old church. Then we looked around the church. I got to light another candle. I am getting really good at praying for people. Then mommy bought me a really pretty rosary. I think it is a very beautiful necklace with Jesus on it. Then we walked around the city and found lunch. I had a ham sandwich and a dessert, chocolate mousse. Then we walked around some more trying to stay warm. We went into a few stores everything was very expensive. We tried on some purfumes and then we found a movie theater with english movies. So instead of taking a nap we went to a movie. Mommy and daddy were hoping that I would fall asleep in the movie but I fooled them and fell asleep the last 5 minutes of the movie! Joke was on them. Tomorrow we are hoping to have a better day for the boat ride down the river and then we are going to the art museum to see some guy named Monet's paintings. Below our some pictures from today. The other camera took better photos but daddy gave that cord away to his friend. Mommy hopes that he gets it back soon.
