welcome home party continues!

what can i say. there is more sangria and paella in the far corner, so - keep on eating and drinking and join in the dance....

welcome home party for sergi!

we might have been too late to surprise sergi - but we are having a party no matter what!

 fenris, gracie, ollie, mrs. OZ, karl, ruis, charlotte, gigi, scylla, asta. socks, tuiren, angelmomo

everybody is of course invited!
as sergi comes from spain we took that as a hint and have paella and sangria.
and mrs. OZ went wild and is dancing flamenco...

so load up your plates with paella and fill your glasses with sangria and have a good time!

(nothing like inviting a bunch of people to someone else's house, HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!)

surprise party

my husband's family got a new member: a 3 year old podenco named sergi who flew in from a shelter in spain yesterday!
of course the gang got together and organized a surprise party for sergi - but then we boarded the wrong train in amsterdam and after seeing half of europe we were too late but will still have a party - surprise or not! check back for that later - and you are ALL invited!
fenris and tuiren are still riding the train, they were having so much fun they refused to get off the train.... what can i say, they are dogs.
here we are, arriving in the netherlands, at the in-laws place:

dona nobis pacem

a new career?

as you might have read on gracie's blog yesterday - she lost her camera to a crocodile!
but me, the ever curios karl, just could not accept that i would not know what pictures she had taken - you never know with gracie - she might get you in a moment you do not want to have on film!!!

so i followed that crock, threw my sunglasses into his mouth so he could not close it anymore and retrieved the camera!

 we were both happy, gracie that she got her camera back, and me because i could delete a couple of compromising shots.....

now i am thinking about a career change? what do you think?

the outback

gracie and olive decided to head out into the outback today - so i went on a trip there on my own!
and met some really nice folks who tried to teach me to play the didgeridoo...

as always, don't miss to go to gracie for more australian adventure!

PURRS FOR MOMO!

please send some healing purrs to our good friend momo!

five years ago...

...this was our first post.

how the maid managed to remember it AND allow us to post about it is beyond us....

and a party, like our first blogoversary party, is of course out of the question.

so we will celebrate quietly, dreaming about having another party some day in the future.

we aren't really blogging anymore at the moment but we think of all of you almost every day - thank you for five wonderful years!
