Welcome, little Emma

We are excited to welcome to the world
Emma Barbara-Elizabeth Gilbert.

Both little Emma and her mother are healthy and well. They are returning home today (Thursday)

And it goes without saying that more pictures will come.

A little something.

Just a little video from a while ago in which Samuel names his favorite composer.

His first desire virtually every morning is to have the CD player turned on.

By the way, K & P are working on the video of the opera from this summer. Here is a link: dreimaldrei gleich unendlich Teaser 1. We didn't post it here because it's kind of scary. (Here's a higher quality version of the same thing)

New Jersey Beach

This is a bit of the US family vacationing on the New Jersey Shore. We had a lovely house and a lovely time and escaped the hurricanes, though they did get the surf up a bit.

Hike 2

Another walk in the woods, this time with some nice Boston harbor views.

Hike 1

We've gotten out a few times since getting back to Boston. Here is a bit from one of our daytrips. The Middlesex Fells (one of our favorites).


Mmmm, dessert.

Sunscreening

Nothing makes a simple task an adventure quite like a two-year old.

From Aug.6:

End of summer

Sam is back in school and so summer is at an end.




But we'll pay tribute to the great times and trips we had with a series of videos over the next few days.

We'll start with dinner in Eberstadt.
