Prague, Salzburg, and Bavaria with Mom and Dad Schmidt

After Berlin we worked our way south to Prague in the Czech Republic. It is a unique and beautiful city.

 



 


 



 

 Sam loved these toy statues!
 


 

 We made a quick stop in Czechy Krumlov - a quaint Czech village.
 


 


 




 We then headed farther south to Salzburg, Austria and then on to Berchtesgaden, Germany area. We took a boat ride on the beautiful Lake Konigssee.

 We climbed (in a bus and elevator) to the Eagle's Nest. One of Hitler's get aways.
 
 



 


 






 

 


 
We found a rodelbahn near our place in the Bavarian part of Germany. It tracked our speed!
 


 
 

 And this is how the kids rode. We stayed 2 nights in every place except Berlin. We were then driving about 4 hours every other day. They held up well. Lenora was screaming to get into her car seat by the end.

 Bavaria is beautiful. We stayed out in the country next to a dairy farm.
 
We also took a cable car ride up to the tallest peak in Germany - Zugspitze. We enjoyed some incredible views!

Engineering Lab vs. Hawaii

It's Friday night of Spring Break and we are sitting in the Engineering lab ...... Justin watching March Madness and me blogging.  Some people may think it's a little on the boring side, but I have to say we are both quite enjoying ourselves.  As Spring Break approached we were under the impression that we just might be welcoming our baby boy sooner than later. On March 6th, I was dilated to a 2 and 70% effaced..... the Dr said he could be here in 2-3 days or 2 weeks. Justin and I had a couple of sleepless nights after hearing this. Jumping at any sign of labor -- makes me laugh now.  The days have passed by with few contractions and no real progress. I have to say my emotions have been all over. At times I so want to be done being pregnant and have this little boy in my arms and then the next minute I am soaking up the time Justin and I have left to easily (well 9 months pregnant easily) hop on the motorcycle for a ride up town. After reading, learning, and practi

Thanks to the Schmidt pumpkin patch  I have several cute little pumpkins I've always wanted and thanks to the Daniels party for the cute carved pumpkins that really set the Halloween tone! The Schmidt Sisters!  October 23rd we had the annual Grandpa Jess Birthday Party get together! I felt like it had been forever since the Daniels family had been together.  Not enough catching up happened for me, but it was sure fun to be around family and carve pumpkins. It helped me start to get into the Halloween spirit. Bummer that I did not take pictures at the party. But these pumpkins made me smile each day I saw them on our porch. Halloween was so much fun when you were a kid, but as I have aged the holiday has lost it's excitement. For Halloween this year we happened to be in Salt Lake with the Schmidts. Justin was presenting his IHC idea and I had the day to myself. The Schmidt family gathered at the pumpkin patch for pictures before the night of trick or treating would

Sam screams when we walk away from the swing - He loves swinging! He loves when we peep through the different holes Yes, he is crawling right to the slide, letting himself down head first
