Wrapping up the school year...three more days until holiday!

Getting in the Christmas spirit.

Listening to Christmas music and drinking rich, hot chocolate at the Christmas Market.

Enjoyed the fun documentary called,  Lego A Brickumentary.

Looking forward to going to this amazing exhibit over the holidays,

The Art of the Brick by Nathan Sawaya! 

Looking forward to relaxing just a wee bit over the holidays.

Loving the sunny weather!

Read a fascinating article that Jacques might find interesting called, A Star in A Bottle.

Happy 7th Noah!

 My head is spinning today.  

How on earth did this little guy roll into 7?

7?!?

It seems like just yesterday we were anticipating his arrival on a snowy, cold, day in Basel.

Thrilled at the arrival of our first child and scared to death to become parents for the first time.

In the past 7 years, Noah has taught us some of life's most valuable lessons.

He has the keen ability to roll with situations, propels himself into the newness that surrounds his life and goes all out, all the time.

Bar far, Noah is the most agile child I have ever met, managing to contort, through and spin his way through most of his life.

He creates, tinkers, and invents like no other and above all he is our son.

So, here's to 7 Noah.

May your journey be rich and rewarding and may you always know how loved you are!
