So as promised here are some photos from Landstuhl. Frau Peaceman and I spent some time going through a photo album she compiled of my first and second grade classes. There were also some writing samples which were both adorable and hilarious. An excerpt from Olivia at five "Today we went on a nater walk. We brout plastick bags so we cood gather trash, and stiks, and leavs and beris." God I was gifted. But it was pretty fun to see how much I really have changed over the years, and how much my beautiful mama has changed too

The quality is pretty poor, but you get the idea, and also can I get a few "awws"? Because I was an adorable child, and also very humble, and of course lucky to have such amazing adults in my life :) 
Other amazing things; our old landlord Herr Brumer is still alive!!! Which was just crazy to me because I very acutely remember him as being at least 400 years old, so I guess he lived to be 412. Good for him. He was out in the garden on Saturday doing yard work (as per usual) and astoundingly enough he actually remembered me, and thought it was very neat that he got to meet me all grown up (oh and also mom and dad he says hi). Needless to say it was a great experience all in all and I really hope that I can make it back to say hello again before my stay in Germany is over.

  1. You AND your Mama are BOTH beautiful. I remember you then. You went shopping with us and did all the negotiating with the clerks! It was the VERY DAY they changed over to the Euro. Do you remember? Nobody could figure out the exchange and you came to the rescue with your advanced German-speaking capability ! I was so impressed and PROUD to have such an able Granddaughter!! And you still are and I still am! Love you........BG
