The Rest of Germany

Here are some pictures from the rest of our time in Germany. I didn't have enough room to bring my big camera so the other girls have better pictures but here are a few from the point and shoot.

In Trier, Germany's oldest city, we saw the oldest Christian Church.

Chase not wanting to pose with mommy.
Our boys.

In front of Porta Nigra - Roman ruins over 2000 years old.






We went to Ramstein for some shopping and to visit with Christy and her girls.

On Friday night Tara and I went out to watch the crud tournament.
and ended up riding a mechanical bull...


We took video and when we watched ourselves we were going so slow. It didn't stop us from being sore though!
On Saturday we went to Eifel Park with the kiddos. There were tons of fun activities - blobs, slides, alpine slides and roller coasters.

On Saturday we went to Bernkastel. It was a beautiful day.
William was always doing this when we wanted to take a picture. He would say something like "take a picture of the birds." We then told him he needed to do a serious face.

It was so warm we stopped for some ice cream. Someone didn't complain.


We were pretty tired but had to check out Berg Landshut on the way home.



After a long day...
We also had lots of time to play in the backyard, yummy food, constant toddler correction, much laughter and some serious biblical debates. Tara was an awesome host with people sleeping everywhere. Meal times were always interesting trying to get all the kiddos fed but it made for some fun memories! Thanks Julie for going with me and to Tara for everything. Hopefully we will have half as good a time in England.
