Flowers everywhere!
The Keukenhof park is so beautiful. It is open for approximately two months every Spring.
Yes Sandi, they are cute but you need a smaller size.
Sandi (Nancy's sister) came for another visit. We are so lucky!
All in all--a beautiful Spring day!
We have been searching for a house to purchase. This is Jim's first choice. Nancy thinks it is a bit on the dark side but maybe with new paint and lighting it will brighten up.

We enjoyed the music while Julie performed at a local pub. Great voice.
Treva showing Jim how much she appreciates his culinary talents. Jim cooked the turkey.
Here is the spread with all our traditional Thanksgiving dinner. Treva and Rod were able to accomodate 12-15 people in their home. Nobody left hungry.

Todd and Jenn stopped by Kaiserslautern to visit with us. They were able to visit a month earlier while they were traveling with Sandi and Steve. After SAndi and Steve headed home Todd and Jenn went south for awhile and eventually made their way back to Kaiserslautern. They have a Mediterrean cruise coming up then a week or two more in Europe before they head back to Maryland. We love for them to visit. 
Jim arrived safe and sound! This is Jim being sworn in for Federal Service. Jim and Nancy are working at the Kleber Army Healthcare Clinic located in Kasierslautern. We primarily work in the Soldier Medical Readiness Center; screening service members for deployment and re-integration, immunizations, etc.
