Carve, bike, work....Fall is here!....and Winter is soon to follow :-)

Friday rooled around again and KK and I invited the next door neighbors and their children over to carve pumpkins. This was a little early but the only time that aligned for all of us. Louis, Alice, Clair, Masea, and Charles showed up with a few pizzas and bottle of wine..we supplied the pumpkins. After some food it was on to the main events...pumkin carving. For the kids this was the first time they ever did this so it was fun watching them draw and play with knives ;-)

The finished goods!

The kids loved it and we enjoyed talking with the neighbors about CH and FR.

The next day I got up early to meet Jay for the first time back on the bikes since the infamous Metabief crash day. I hooked up with Jay in Lausanne and it was off to Champary. We arrived to an empty parking lot and a great day...here is the evidence.
Jay and CH!

We ended the day with a little improv lunch and a beer:

The day was perfect! No crashes, good catching up with J, and just a chill CH day. We headed back to Lausanne and picked up KK at the train station for a little dinner with Jen (the master cook), Jay, Tom, and Tammy. Dinner was great and we called it a night early.
Sunday KK kept finishing the place off. I worked the curtain rods and K the curtains. I also did a little work on my sunglass case.

Overall a great weekend in CH. More to come as always. Looking forward to see the fams!

The cows are coming home...CH style!

So after two weeks of traveling it was time to catch up with CH and give her some lovin. KK and I heard the cows were coming down because Winter was around the corner, so we went to check it out. With our Danish friend Mette we headed up towards Mont D'or on the Jura. Upon arriving we noticed it was a party....with COWS!
WARNING FULL SWISS ACTION TO FOLLOW:













The town had a great atmoshpere with food and drink..we enjoyed!

The events was great!...after getting back to GE we cooked up some burgers and had the crew over to play some games.

.....so as the farmers predicted by bringing the cows down...it SNOWED on the Jura...10/4/08 (from the new place)

As always a great time in CH. Life still rocks and we continiue to be very blessed. Much love to our family and friends...see you in two weeks!

DK!

So it has been a hactic few weeks but with the new place, traveling to IT, and then off to DK. KK and I traveled on Saturday morning at 6:30 AM and arrived in Copenhagen to a normal DK day...a little rain and chill. That was okay because we were off to see Claus and Karola......and the new little one to the klan..Timo. Claus gab us at the ariport and then it was off the their place close the the center of town. After a little catching up we headed to see the sites and enjoy the now clearing day:




The proud parents:


The waterfront area:



It was a very nice day and we really enjoyed thw walk and company. KK and I were looking for a light for the new place but no luck. That evening Karola cooked up a nice curry and we chilled in. The next day we woke to a very clear and sunny day and headed for brunch. On the way we headed through Christiania (Check link to see what it is about) LINK


At the brunch place we enjoyed the sun and a very nice time with C, K, and T.






After a 2 hour brunch...very chill...we walk back to C and Ks through Christiania.


I got yelled at for taking thios one...no cameras in this area.


4pm struck and we had to grab a plane, so after checking out Claus's new bike we gave K and T a kiss goodbye and Claus gave a us a ride to the airport. We left at 6 and we were home chilling on the couch by 8:30. A great short trip..but to short. Copenhagen and the company was great.... and we look forward to going back very soon.
