With this week's topic for You Capture being "pretty", I'm sure we're going to see lots of pretty little girls. Lately Mackenzie has not only started to love wearing her hair in pig tails and pony tails (which is really huge since she usually takes anything put in her...
Since Stefan got "gardening leave" last week, we have been on a non-stop whirlwind of knocking projects around the farm off our to do list before we move to Berlin. In his industry, "gardening leave" is the norm -- and it usually ranges from 4 to 12 weeks...but some...
The skies of Frankfurt are often filled with clouds and drizzling rain. Although those days are not our fondest, it also makes us appreciate the brief moments of sunshine that much more. And just because the skies are grey and often dreary, doesn't mean that they...
Our plans for Monday were quite simple. Or so we thought. The plan was to head to the Red Bull FlugTag in Mainz (the event where people bring their homemade flying devices with them so they can be launched off a platform in the water and one gets to test if they catch...
Beth asked us to capture "life" this week -- and I have to say ours has been a bit on the crazy side lately. Although a bit blurry, this picture has been the epitome of what we've been up to lately. We declutter and pack things up, and Mackenzie finds a way to keep...

We have had a couple of extremely productive days around here. We've built shutters for the guest house (which we've been meaning to do for a couple of years), we closed off part of the outdoor patio to make it look nicer (almost something we've talked about for a...
Spring. It's by far one of my favorite times of year. This spring we've had a strange spring. It went from really warm and sunny to cold (and even freezing over Easter, with almost all of Germany getting a little dusting of snow). Then it was cold again for a few...
Sunshine. It's something I can never seem to get enough of. Perhaps I'm in a perpetual vitamin D withdrawal phase, but here around Frankfurt we just seem to get far more grey days than sunny -- or maybe the grey days just stick more in my mind because they are so...
