Kids Weekend

This past weekend I got to have my "niece and nephew" visit me in Braunschweig. Their parents, friends and colleagues, brought them up from Jena and we had a TON of FUN!
It took 3 adults to get dinner going for 2 kids, while entertaining them at the same time --- hmmm.... maybe I am a bit out of practice with babysitting!! :-) Tommy is here for several months as an exchange student from OU, and Lydia just moved here from Jena. She's doing an internship locally in animal nutrition and just bought rubber boots to enter the cow stall!

What kid does NOT like ice cream? And in Germany the Italians have cornered the market for creative and tasty bowls of this stuff! The building here is where the city library is AND a huge, new shopping mall (complete with toy stores, their favorite!). Janine, a college student, was sweet enough to let us use her library card.
The whole family got all dressed up to go with me to the 2nd service at church, that is AFTER we had a marvelous, American- style pancake and bacon b-fast!
