A very Merry European Christmas!

Anticipating Santa's Arrival

The holidays are wonderful in Zurich. There are lights, decorations, and Christmas markets galore. The boys are excited to see what Santa brings them this year, although I'm not sure Gavin will receive the "VAC 35 Leaf Vacuum" that he found on YouTube. :)

Cooper is almost crawling, and just got his third tooth in...all on the bottom row. And as you can see, he is using his new teeth in the most creative ways.

We miss you all!

Happy Thanksgiving!

While we did not get to enjoy a big turkey dinner, we did get to see the official start to the Zurich Christmas season during the lighting festival tonight. We miss all of you, but are making the best of our experience and getting used to being away from the US for our traditional holidays. Enjoy the pictures, and thanks again to "Auntie Kate" for all of your help during your visit!

Family Trip to Luzern

We took a day trip to Luzern today, another Swiss city built around a lake with post card scenery and much to do outdoors. We met some friends who are here from the US and spent the day exploring and enjoying the autumn weather while we still can. For those planning to visit, this beautiful city will surely be a destination you won't want to miss.

All Hallow's Eve

Unfortunately, Halloween is not celebrated much in our new home country. So, we dressed the boys up today and wanted to share their costumes with you all!

We're Here!

Greetings from Switzerland! We arrived last week and are already enjoying our newest adventure. We will be starting a new blog to share stories of our experiences abroad in the coming months. Until then, enjoy a few pictures of our favorite boys!

This one's for you, Daddy!

We miss you lots!!!!

Summertime Fun!

Hangin' with Mr. Cooper

Well, we are five and a half weeks into parenting two boys instead of one - and while it's been challenging, it's certainly rewarding. Enjoy the pictures - both boys are growing so fast.

Welcome Cooper James!

Big brother Gavin was kind enough to share his blog to introduce his little brother to the world. Cooper James was born on May 18, weighing 7lbs 10oz. Thank you to everyone for your well wishes. Enjoy the pictures!

Happy Mother's Day!

Enjoy the pictures!

Happy Easter!

We hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Sunday! Just over three weeks left until Gavin's little brother arrives...stay tuned!

Easter Bunny!

Five weeks and counting!

Gavin is stoked to become a big brother - although we are keeping his little brother's name a secret from him too - since he repeats every word everyone says - we figured it'd be best if we wanted to continue to keep the name a surprise. Enjoy the pictures!

Two and a half months to go!

Gavin has been busy preparing for his little brother, who will be here in two and a half months. He's been keeping busy through the cold winter months with some wonderful Christmas and birthday presents he received. Enjoy the pictures!

Later Gator!

Between Gavin's 2nd birthday party and yet another snowstorm, it's been a wild week! Enjoy the pictures.

Two years old!

Happy Birthday, Gavin!! You are so loved!

Winter Wonderland!

Merry Christmas! Happy New Year! And days away from Happy Birthday for Mr. Gavin - whose best memory from the holiday season was finding out he is going to have a little brother. Enjoy the pictures!
