A video memory of Christmas Eve in Mount Vernon.
Here is Part 1. It starts with a bang!
Sorry it is a little bit endless. Unfortunately, more judicious cutting is more work. And I'm getting a little bit lazy with the videos. Feel free to fast-forward....often.

Happy New Year
Happy New Year to all!
We've succesfully navigated the holidays and are working/meeting for various opera projects in Eberstadt, Stuttgart and Karlsruhe. Before that we enjoyed Christmas in Ohio and the turn of the New Year here in Germany. We've had some snow cover here and Samuel got a chance to have a fancy sleigh-ride thanks to a clever job by Opa of attaching an old tricycle seat to the sleigh and then grabbing a makeshift seatbelt. Here's a glimpse:
More Videos to come.

Snow Day
We had a nice fluffy snow day today so we grabbed a make-shift sled and went out to our neighborhood park to try out Samuel's new boots.
Albstadt-Ebingen Flashback
A photo essay on our trip this past summer to Albstadt-Ebingen. Lovely food, scenery, and company. Oh...and it was warm!
You can check out even more Albstadt shots at our Flickr page : http://flickr.com/photos/gilbermueller/
Wir sind gut ausgerüstet und werden nicht verhungern auf unserer Fahrt nach Albstadt am 8. August 2008.
Albstadt liegt in Schwaben auf der rauhen Alb, Karolas Mutter ist da aufgewachsen.
Nach der Ankunft folgt gleich die erste Spielrunde in der Ferienwohnung.
Spaziergang in Albstadt, wir stärken uns mit Kaffee und Eis.
Pauline und Jakob können bald im Zirkus auftreten.
Es ist schön in Albstadt, wir freuen uns an der schönen Landschaft
Samuel bekommt Eis von Opa und ist viel unterwegs im Wald und auf dem Berg bis es dunkel wird.

Samuels Fest
Am 23. August 2008 feiern wir ein Fest für Samuel im Odenwald an der Irrbach Quelle.
Treffpunkt ist am Parkplatz, dann marschieren wir mit Sack und Pack in den Wald.
In der Hütte gibt es eine Stärkung
Die letzten Vorbereitungen werden getroffen
Vom Regen lassen wir uns nicht abschrecken. Für Samuel werden Gedichte rezitiert und Lieder gesungen....
Zuletzt zünden alle eine Kerze für Samuel an, die wir im Quellbecken schwimmen lassen....

First word
S & K are getting ready for a trip to Germany for several days. So we'll have a bon voyage posting for them.
Samuel is in a new school (day-care) and now seems to really enjoy it. It has been a life-style adjustment for him, but he seems to be coming around and enjoying his days painting and playing.
Back at home, Samuel's latest loves are corn-on-the-cob and potatoes, ranking right up there with reading books and throwing things. Apropos the last, we have a video (for the first time in ages) to show the little guy in action. Probably the most notable thing is his attraction to the bilingual word "ball"
(sorry: the coloring is odd in this smaller compression)
Here are some bonus pics of Samuel on a campus trip in which he helped papa with wrapping up his dissertation. He is sporting his cool shirt sent by our friend Julia O from Venice Arsenal - they make custom designed shirts and every single shirt has a unique design.
