Visiting Family

It's time again, we are going to pack up some stuff, grab the boys by their ears (not really, but it sounds good) and hop on a plane to Germany. Visit the parents/grandparents and not cook, clean or do anything remotely strenuous for a few weeks. Well, except for the flight that is. Sitting for 13 hours in a confined space with a three year old (Ben) and a one year old (Jonas) will be no walk in the park. Sonja and I are trying to be as prepared as possible to keep the boys happy and entertained. Wish us luck and may the temper tantrums be rare. Germany is going to be great, there is floods everywhere, the bird flu has struck already and the weather forecast doesn't look to exciting either. But hey, neither it is here in CA right now. Why are we going then? Because it's family and living 6000 miles away from your parents makes you want to go, regardless of weather. We are excited. Alright then, off to packing.
