Marco casts his vote!

We just got back from going with Marco to vote in Germany's election. It was about a 45 second walk from our house to the school where he voted. It is interesting having the vote on Sunday. Nice to see so many folks headed to the polls during their Sunday strolls. Seemed more relaxed than what I am used to.

I couldn't resist the picture of the cute elderly couple holding hands as they went in to vote. I love timeless love!

Oktoberfest Began Today

While tonight is my big Concert night, we took the opportunity this morning to attend the big parade that officially kicks off Munich's Oktoberfest festivities! It was fun watching all of the ornate carriages pulled by beautiful horses with festive bells. The attire of the parade's participants was traditional Bavarian dress and just plain cool. Each carriage represented different breweries. Bands and marching clubs were also a part. A man from the very last float/carriage tossed Kalynn a red rose. I told her it was because she was the prettiest thing there... she liked my explanation, lol.

Just too cute not to share!

I made this tutu dress last week and Kalynn could not wait to put it on. Of course I love when she acts so girly! What mommy doesn't?

Bayern Park

We took a trip to Bayern Park this past weekend. It was a birthday gift for Kalynn that we finally "cashed in". You will notice we all had on jackets or long sleeves... it got a little bit chilly. This following a week where I had our portable A/C running. Kalynn enjoyed spending the day with her aunts, uncle, cousins, and of course... Mom and Dad. Check out the photos to see who the real kids were.
