Happy Birthday to Me!!

I really wasn't looking forward to my birthday this year. First of all, turning half a century old didn't sound that fun (even if it's not all that different from being 24) and secondly, Didier wasn't going to be here. But on the 19th, my friends, Jess and Tally, and my brother- & sister-in-law, Michael and Martina, threw me a surprise birthday dinner. The weather was so nice and we grilled hot dogs, hamburgers and bratwursts. They brought so much salad and fruit as well. Plus Martina made me a cake, which is something I didn't get last year. It was so great! I really had an unexpectedly enjoyable birthday. Thanks so much!

Party!

Best Friends

I am so amazed at how well Emily and Kelsey get along. They really are best friends. Every time I even mention Kelsey's name, Emily gets her shoes and goes to the door because she wants to go play with her. So, here are some pictures of the 2 of them.

Good thing I had 2 babies because they both wanted to hold one! (Notice how the boys didn't like being held by them. They are both SCREAMING!!)

Emily pointing as if to say "Look! It's Kelsy!!"

Grandma and Grandpa

My (Jennifer's) parents were just here in Switzerland meeting their new grandsons. My mom was here for 16 days and my dad was here for 4. We were very excited for them to be here, even if it wasn't for very long. I didn't get many pictures of my parents with Dominic and Liam (or Emily for that matter), but here are some that I took while they were here, even if they aren't in them.

***NOTE: So there's no confusion, for the rest of this post, my parents will be Grandma and Grandpa.

Dominic and Grandpa asleep on the couch. Grandpa slept a lot, but the twins didn't mind. They slept too!


Didier's Parents (Grandmami et Grandpapi) with the boys at the blessing after-party. Someone took a myriad of photos at the blessing and party, but I don't know where they are. If you have them, can I have a copy of them? This is the only picture I've got!!

All the kids and me.


Grandma and Emily went on lots of walks. Here's Emily just walking;

Also, I cut Emily's hair while grandma was still here. She no longer has that really cute mullet! More pics to come.

New Job!

We would just like to announce that Didier has (finally)found a new job! He is now working for Neways (another MLM company, based out of Utah) as the country manager for Germany. We are so excited about this position and are happy about the timing as well. Plus we get to stay where we are, as it is a "Home office" position. Congrats Didier!
