We Are...

 We Are...
Just coming off of a fun filled, adventurous four day break.
Grateful for our ability to travel to new places.
Blessed that Switzerland is so incredibly gorgeous.
So happy we are all healthy.
Proud of Noah and Tessa for hiking so many kilometers these past few days.
Shaking our heads in utter disbelief at the President of America, the way he conducts himself and the way he continues to treat others.  What a sad, sad state for American politics.
Looking forward to a warm week and a fresh start.
Wishing everyone a beautiful Sunday.
 Enjoying the steam boat on Lake Luzern and grateful this still provides such a thrill after all these years.
 What perfect weather!
 This lake....
 Hiking up to take in the views.
 A little break in the shade.
 Oh, to have a barn positioned with those views.
A well deserved ice cream on a very hot day.

Enjoying perfect weather and gorgeous hikes.
Blessed for our good health.
Most grateful that despite Robert’s bum knee we are still able to hike.
So happy my first new semester of teaching at my new job went so well!
Listening to David Gray and loving the song “Say Hello and Wave Goodbye.”
Loving the Tim Ferris and the Kind World podcasts.
Looking forward to a long weekend and some nice day trips. 
Feeling relieved that the dentist was able to fix Noah’s tooth.  Whew!
Looking forward to a wonderful week and wishing everyone the same.
 Sweet T on the hike.
 Happy to have stumbled across this little castle.
 Sweet picture of the boys on the trail.
 Forget it Switzerland - you still knock our socks off with your beauty!
 A little picnic under a tree....some days are just like that.
 Noah enjoying the views.
After 8.5k, the kids are ready for the bus trip home.  Me too!
