Baby selfies, trips, family, friends - Spring/summer 2014

 Lots of fun this year!!!
Baby Victoria getting so big!

Natalya takin' a selfie :)

 Had fun at a Kids' Fest in Graf

Natalya trying her hand at a bean bag toss game.

Here she is in the "portrait" booth at the fest with some free stuff!

 Sand and gravel never gets old.

 Here, Natalya takes some pictures from the top of a jungle gym.

 Artists abound! :)

 Mikey and a rainbow!

 Next up, a trip to Regensburg with some great friends!
The amazing cathedral there, St. Peter's.

 Our friend, Jesse, with Victoria :)

And his wife, Raychael.

Eating some delicious food!

Here's a somewhat random one - a beautiful hairstyle designed by Me ;)

 And Mom, Dad, and Kevin come to Germany!!!!

 First beers shared in Germany! Franziskaner - nothing but the best!!

 Kevin loved the autobahn! Although, in this picture, we're going down a smaller road, and slower. :)

Walking along in Munich.

 Visiting the Odeonsplatz in Munich. :) Mom and Victoria

 In the Theatinerkirche in Munich - amazingly beautiful! Sending up some prayers :)

 Simply stunning!

 Going towards the Marianplatz

 Taking a little break - Victoria loves shoes :) Grandma's are approved!

 Funny story: stopped sooner than planned to have Mass at the Heiliggeistkirche. As it turned out, the Mass was not in English, not that we were expecting it to be, but it was not in German, either. It was in Slavic. Haha! So we followed along as best we could, although the ending was entirely foreign(bu dum, ch!). I'm sure it was a fun experience especially for the fam - a Slavic Mass in Germany! :)

 And on to the Eibsee! Near Garmisch, at the border of Austria and Germany, this amazing glacier lake is breathtaking and crystal clear.

 Mom, down by the water.

 The many shades of Kevin :)

 A little rainy trip to Amberg, here is the organ in St. Martin Church.

 Saying a prayer for Grandma Witschen.

 Summer fun - Jack is enjoying a well-deserved treat after completing an UNDEFEATED season of soccer!!

 This is the entire team Jack was a part of that defeated EVERY other team this season - no joke! So proud!!

 At a goodbye/b-day party for our friends, Jesse and Raychael. Victoria just loves him! :)

 Here is Natalya at the end of the year awards ceremony. She won a perfect attendance award for the 4th quarter, as well as a certificate of appreciation for being in the "meeter-greeter" program in her class, helping new kids out. :)

 Here we are with a very good friend, Joe, in Ramstein. Lunch at the Macaroni Grill was amazing, but it was even better catching up with a much-missed friend! :) The kids just love him so much!

 And to finish off, a couple of selfies. :)
