Diggin' Out


We Are...
In the process of diggin' out of illness and getting back out there.
Back to school, back to long hikes, back to FCB Women's team soccer games, back to the gym, back to work, oh, all of it.
We are grateful the Chickenpox are finally over and we have returned to normal life!  Whew!
Blessed to experience this gorgeous, spring weather!  What a treat!
So happy to call Basel our home - even with a sick one, we were able to walk all over, explore, and feel alive in nature, by the Rhine, at a local deer park, and the Botanical Gardens.
Loved the uplifting movie, Spare Parts. Nothing like a good underdog movie!
I love Newton's First Law, "An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion."  Profound on so many levels - I like to think of it in terms of keeping active physically, mentally, emotionally, hell, in every way!
Wishing everyone a gorgeous week!

We Are...

 We Are...
Winding down after two weeks break and bracing for another start.
Grateful for Noah feeling better and so happy Luna was there to comfort him.
Enjoyed the day we were able to witness Fasnact.
Happy to have finished the book Being Mortal by Atul Gawande.
Blessed to have such a gorgeous weather weekend and so happy to have squeezed in two hikes, and a workout.  
Wishing everyone a beautiful week ahead!

We Are...

 We Are....
Just back from a quick and fun trek to Porto.
Charmed by the kindness of the people in Portugal.
Grateful we live in Switzerland.
Blessed to experience new opportunities.
Watching Collateral Beauty and despite the poor reviews, loved it!
Wishing everyone a beautiful Sunday.


 Picking fresh oranges on the property in Portugal.  Great way to start the day!
 The gorgeous Douro Valley.
 Enjoying nice walks on a cloudy day.
 Long walks on the beach....ahh...
Scenic Porto.
