Austria

This weekend we headed down to Austria. Mark wanted to get one last ski in the Alps before we leave Europe. We stayed in Hall, which is a town right outside of Innsbruck. This is our morning view from our hotel.Walking through the town

Noah found lots of snow to play in

The entrance to the Swarovski Crystal Musem is under the fountain that is flowing out the giant's mouth.

Everything is made of crystal!

They had a great play area outside for kids complete with playground...

and cool labyrinth in the shape of the giant's hand.

Fasching

Noah came home from school today with his face painted. It is the German holiday Fasching.

~more snow~

We woke up to another snowfall this morning. yay!

Noah got busy sweeping the sidwalks and cleaning the car off.

Time to make a snowman!!

We have a small hill on the side of our house that we used as a warm up for some sledding...

before we hit the big neighborhood hill.

Happy Valentine's Day!!

We had a great Valentines Day starting off with pink eggs, pink milk, and pink icing on our cinnamon rolls! Yum!

Brave, courageous Noah got 4 shots yesterday (Friday) and afterwards picked out a knight's costume to wear to keep us all safe.

This morning we woke up to a HUGE snowfall and as the day wore on the sun came out and we ventured out for a long walk in the woods.....it was a beautiful day!!

After our long walk, the boys enjoyed some Mario Kart Wii (a race-car driving game) to relax before spending the evening with some friends for dinner.
