October! Fall is here (and it's darn cold in Germany)!

In October, we managed to sneak in a few more trips before the snow arrives. First we took a quick hiking trip in Swiss Saxony, then we made an impromptu weekend trip to Prague (only 2 hours from Dresden) and enjoyed wandering the streets of the old town while sipping mulled wine. Finally we took a big trip down to Strasbourg, France for 5 days (Dave had a meeting to attend) where Sabine scared us with her first trip to the ER with a bad case of croup. She quickly bounced back and we were able to fit in a bit of sightseeing before heading home...

September... (a bit late)

What didn't happen in September?! We had a special visit from Grandma Bishop, Ginny turned 30, we traveled to Vienna and we welcomed two new members into the family! Congratulations to Mike & Jess and their new beautiful daughter Cassia, and to Stephen & Jen (and big brother Dublin) and their handsome fella Oliver - can't wait to see you all in Italy next spring!

August... (long overdue)

August was a busy month of moving into our new home and filling it with our stuff (some new, some imported). It was really nice to finally unpack, as we'd been living out of suitcases since the end of May...
