Our recent trip to Oktoberfest in Germany was nothing to brag about. (A sea of drunk people is never fun.) But our stay in Garmisch was FABULOSO! Below are some pics of the weekend. :)

Morning view from our balcony... breathtaking.

Views from the top of Alpspitz.

We took a tram up, hiked across, and took another tram down.

Entertainers at the restaurant at the top of Alpspitz.

Indulging in a yummy treat before our hike!

Thank goodness this wasn't our trail... I don't know that I could have done it. Yikes!!!

My Loves. :)

Talking on her phone... lol.

Few pics of Kyndall being Little Miss Fearless, the beach, and dinner with friends.

Here's her latest gig... climbing, standing, or sitting on anything and everything she shouldn't climb, stand, or sit on... momma mia!

Diva!

Watching the cats on the other side of the gate.

Eating ALL of Mr. Paul's dessert...

...and so proud b/c sweets are a rarity.

Our little Bug sportin' the pigtails. She LOVES the camera... such a ham!

Kyndall enjoying the nice weather at our friend's Farewell Dinner yesterday evening. She loves to walk (fast!) with her walker or a hand, but still only takes a few steps on her own. I'm not worried... she'll walk when she's ready. :)

Wow, some time has passed since my last blog. (My apologies.) We had a wonderful visit with Mom and Janis, and Kyndall's Birthday Bash was a huge success! Life in Italy continues to be busy, busy, busy! We're officially counting down to our return to the states (1 year to go!), so anyone interested in visiting may want to purchase their tickets now! :) Here's a few pics from our recent activities...

Our sweet little Tooterbug on her 1st Birthday!

Taking a turn at the pinate with Daddy.

I really didn't think Kyndall would like the cupcake...she tends to be a picky little eater. (Not to mention, this was the first time she had EVER had a sugar dessert like this! Yes, I'm one of these organic/all natural/make her food Mommies.)

Ummm...Mommy was wrong! She LOVED the icing...ignored the cake. We took the cupcake away at this point...I think she would have eaten ALL of the icing!

Easter in Vicenza with the Werners.

Kyndall with Grammy...

...and Grammy Janis.

The Werners. :)

Kyndall lovin' her rocker that Grammy and Gramps got her for her birthday...such a big girl. :)

Baby Einstein is "jaw-dropping" entertainment...in case you weren't aware...lol.
