We are now in Garmisch for the Labor Day weekend. Matt is the director of the 38th annual DODDS Labor Day golf tournament for the third year. Here is our hotel room as he and Tiff stuff goody bags for the players. Tiff looks mad but she's not! Laney and Colby refusing to go to bed in the background.
We come down to Garmisch at least once a year, such a beautiful place to be! I love the flowers hanging from the houses, why don't mine ever look like these?
At the golf course, dad was checking in to make sure things were all good for the tournament.
I challenge anyone to get these two to both look at the same time and smile!!
What? I am just trying on one of Sissy's bras!!! And????
On Wednesday Colby got to go to school to meet his teacher , Ms. Stuffy. This pre-visit allowed the kids to meet their teachers and to get acclimated to what his school would be like. He will go to school MWF from 9-12:00. I was very excited about the visit! He is attending Faith Baptist's preschool program, right now there are six kids in his room (he is one of two boys), they hope to build the class up to nine kids. I love that the school's first and foremost goal is to teach the kids about Christ, to teach them songs and Bible stories, etc. They will also go to chapel on Friday! Next, they will be teaching letters, colors and all those other goodies. The school asked that we not bring the kids in to class any more than ten minutes early, as the teachers are using that prep time for prayer for the kids. Awesome. Colby is ready to learn, excited to go!
Colby and Ms. Stuffy (teacher), that is a nickname that her father gave her that stuck.

Can you guess who is in 7th grade? Yep, here is Tiff and dad on her first day of school. She was matching from head to toe, earrings to socks and raring to go! Thus far, 7th grade is a hit.
We celebrated Josh's 4th birthday at the bowling alley this past weekend, fun times, awesome dinosaur cake!
You will have to ignore Laney's hair (Lisa), it has a mind of its own.
In a military community is it rare to keep friends in the same area for more than 3 years so we are blessed to have the Nichols family, we have grown together.
Laney and her main sqeeze, Samuel. She is three months older (cougar) but you could not tell!
Samuel and Josh came over for some play time. Sieben loved Samuel....one treat for you and one for me (Samuel's snack time motto!)
When Tiff was not in school yet, I would leave her a list of ideas (chores) while I was at work, did not want her to get bored! The list usually included some fun things like "make ants on a log with Colby" (peanut butter on celery). One day I told her to make a dessert so she took this job very seriously. She had Birgit write down the German words for ingredients and set off on her bike to the neighborhood store to buy what she needed for the yummy oreo cheesecake below. Needless to say, this did not last a day in our house! These two below look high on dessert!
