Sommerfest im Kindergarten.

[6.24.2011.]

today we went to the kindergarten's sommerfest.  there were cakes galore & kids running about dawning crowns made of flowers. it felt like something straight out of a picture or book. it was a lovely way to spend a june afternoon. (especially when it was only around 60 degrees! love love love germany's weather.)

anchor.

 6.5.2011
Today I ventured to the local fish market. I walked around the pier while soaking up the bright sun and smelling the ocean air. Daydreaming (as this song played in my head.)  It's was a relaxing way to spend my lazy Sunday. I wish everyone could have a Sunday like today's-- I wish I could bottle up the happiness I felt while wandering about.  I would share it all with you.

Blumen.

 6.3.2011
while i was hanging up the laundry outside the little one came up and gave me these sweet flowers & gave me a hug.  he then turned quickly then turned around and ran away giggling and saying "bitte schön!" (you're welcome!)
