Tegernsee -- one last time!

With very weekends left before our move we jumped upon the (somewhat) acceptable weather forecast and our friends' open weekend to hit the autobahn for where else but Tegernsee!!

We hiked our usual trail, but continued on up to the chapel on the mountain top before returning for our beer.

What?
Dampfknödl for lunch? Yes, please!

Jeff and I have slowly realized the Germans love to eat dessert for lunch. So whenever the situation presents itself, we smile at each other and dive in.
Light fluffy white cake smothered in warm vanilla sauce? Yes, please!


On our descent back down the mountain we encountered a few other hikers . . .


Just to be safe, Conny and I let the boys go first!

Farewell, Tegernsee.
We'll miss your hiking beverages and beautiful view.

It's a guy thing

With all of our special friends we've made the two years we've been in Munich, it's fun to watch our little man really nestle in to a few personal faves of his own. Now, I completely understand William and his friends' tendency to parallel play whenever they are around each other. And trust me, they do seem to interact very little sometimes. However, the energy and giggles when a certain few young gentlemen friends of William's come over can't be denied.

Father's Day

Tradition!
Another Father's Day means another peach pie for our favorite Dada.


My crust fell apart this year because I wasn't paying as close attention to its consistency with an extremely helpful toddler sous chef.
And honestly, I can't remember why I didn't take William's photo with it this year either. Perhaps I was still reeling from all the help I had received.


Poor Jeff's Father's Day festivities this year focused mainly on getting our apartment ready for the move. We were busy taking down lights and selling them on Munich's equivalent of Craig's List. William LOVED helping us with this too!
Maybe you'll golf next year, dear!
