Sorry for the delayed post. We had family visit us this past week. We've only been here two weeks and we were so fortunate to have my brother, my sister in law and my two nephews visit us from Belgium. My brother, who is in the US Army and working with NATO in Brussels, Belgium had the opportunity to attend a military ball at the
Hofburg Palace in Vienna (about 1/2 mile from our apartment). Ordinarily, he wouldn't have volunteered to come, but with us in town, he piggy-backed a vacation. So, on Friday night, we got to babysit 4 kids (all under the age of five) while my brother and sister-in-law went to a boring old ball! :)
Aren't they a cute couple?
Aren't those chandeliers gorgeous?? They look like they are floating in mid air. Yeah, it does look pretty boring. I'm glad Kevin and I stayed home with these little monsters. :)
For their last night in town, we cooked a traditional Austrian dinner of Stelze (Schweinshaxe) and sauerkraut paired with weizenbier and rot wein.

After:
Ohhhhh, the carnage!!
J and C, thanks for the wonderful visit. We'll get you back when we leave the kids with you and go to Paris in the summer! :)
