Halloween 2020

In lieu of everything being shut down for Halloween, we teamed up with our "Besties" and had a Halloween extravaganza candy hunt and made potions in pumpkins. 

 

Tessa's art and glasses

We got a real kick out of Tessa's interpretation of Donald Trump.

She got the skin color right and his hair right. 

You can tell what we say about him at home because 

fruit and vegetables are being thown at him.

I thought I would add that Tessa got glasses.

Her prescription was minimal but we hoped it would 

help her with school.  She rarely wore these cute glasses

because they would fog when she wore a mask.

When we got back to the States,  she was retested and told

to have perfect vision.

 

Bavaria in the Fall

We went to Bavaria with the Christensens.  We started off at a waterpark near Lake Titisee (great name).  It was the first time any of us were in an enclosed space without masks.  It felt great but also weird. We  then stayed in a great house about an hour from Lake Konstanz which borders Germany, Switzerland and Austria.  We went to the Mainau Island that had a playground, botanical garden, and butterfly garden.  

Locked out of the house

The next day we went to Triberg to shop for a cuckoo clock for Janet and hike the waterfall.

And then on the way back, we stopped at Black Forest Open Air Museum.  

It brought in several traditional houses from the 1600's.
