Spring Break, Easter and Berlin Vacation!

Joslyn had so much fun at Adventure Camp!She was sad that she had to come back home. I remember having that same feeling when I was younger after a week at Camp Lone Star in Texas. So one of the many activities Joslyn participated in was mountain bike riding. Somewhere while on the bike trail she dropped her camera...it's gone :( I was told that some of the leaders were working on making a CD with pictures of the kids and activities. I hope I am able to get one and I can share pictures with you all.
Joslyn came home on Wednesday evening and we all left for Berlin Thursday afternoon. We had so much fun in Berlin and saw so much!! I am still loading pictures onto our flickr website. We saw a lot of the Berlin wall, Check Point Charlie, the Holocaust Memorial, The USA Embassy, the Brandenburger Gate, the Sony Center, Stood in front of the Plenary Hall (the German Parliament bldg), Humboldt University (where Albert Einstein went to school), St Hedwigs Kathedrale, had dinner at the top of the rotating Television Tower (Philip made VIP reservations for us and we were able to go straight to the front of the long line! Thank goodness!), and soo much more!! Philip did a awesome job planning the entire trip! The girls were not thrilled at all by the hotel we stayed in. Philip's response to the girl's was, "I have just spoiled y'all with nice hotels". I was so happy with our trip to Berlin!!! Many memories!






We got home from Berlin at about midnight. I was still able to get up at 6:30 Sunday morning and make it to the Sunrise service at the chapel! After the sunrise service I came home and dropped Joslyn off. I went back to the chapel and stayed for the 9:30 service as well. After church we went to have Easter brunch at the Conn Club. The Garrison Easter egg hunt was right behind the Conn Club so we took the girls with their baskets to hunt eggs! We came home and I took a long nap!!





One of our friends invited us over to a Easter Monday BBQ. We had hamburgers and hot dogs with lots of side dishes! It was nice!



I sent Philip out to run some errands and do some light grocery shopping, gotta wash all bedding, towels and bath rugs, finish cleaning up rooms, dinner, baths and bed!!! Have a happy Tuesday!
