Amazing April - yeah, its corny - but true! We have truly enjoyed the warm afternoons and exploring nature. The wildflowers are beautiful and the trees on the mountains are filling in.
Luke rode his first bike - tandem style. He did an excellent job of hanging on and pedaling. We rode bikes with friends on mountain trails and cooked on an open fire. Luke also caught tadpoles. We brought 67 tadpoles home and watched as they changed into frogs. I was able to convince Luke to let them go in the lake by our house before we had 67 frogs (whew!).
We also found an English speaking Church not far from the house. Luke really enjoys going to Bible class and spending time with other kids. He is such a social butterfly - I have been impressed with how he will continually talk and interact with kids even if he does not understand them. Through church we have met several Expat moms and their kids. We enjoyed a picnic and egg hunt with an Expat playgroup.
For Easter, we went to church and then enjoyed an afternoon with friends. We discovered Luke loves salami and carrot cake. Luke was quite a charmer and soaked in all the attention he could. He even took a turn playing guitar and singing with RockBand (a video game, for those not familiar).
Hope you enjoy the slideshow. Luke selected the song - its his favorite.
Hi Cayjen,
ReplyDeleteHertzlichen Grüetzi!
I was trolling the internet for food blogs from Switzerland and came across your blog... I realise you're not a food-blogger, but reading through your comments brought back many warm (and frustrating) memories... see, I'm Swiss by association... my husband is Swiss and I'm an Aussie, and we're currently living in Australia, but have dreams of being in Switerland one day! :-)
Your ventures to Migros and such have me missing the place!
Wishing you all the best as you settle in!
Clare
p.s: Find a local bakery and order a "Nuss Gipfeli" - they're heaven! :)
Loved this, Jen!
ReplyDeleteWow...what beautiful smiles!
