Happy Day

Today was a stunningly beautiful day here in Germany!! The weather was perfect, I was surrounded by family, and no impending time away from the family was hanging overhead...

To celebrate a fine beginning to the day, I made pancakes and bacon for breakfast. Shortly after that we all loaded up in the car and went to the flohmarkt in Homburg - where we picked up a few nicknacks.

We had a nice "picnic" outside while we enjoyed the fresh air and sunshine. After lunch we came back to Baumholder for Leah's ballet recital. She was a Munchkin for "Return to Oz". This was her outfit:


And here she is during her routine clearly having a ball:


Outside there was a horse and carriage/buggy giving rides. Nancy won and got to ride with Ian and Leah.


Finally, we had dinner al fresco on our front porch. Warm sun, soft breeze, Catherine, and a view to die for. It was as close to perfect as I can imagine a day, and the happiest I've felt in quite some time.


May your day treat you as well as it did me! Cheers,

Marc
