Deck the Halls

Tonight after we got some more lights we finally finished the tree.  This is the biggest we have ever had and it still doesn’t fit all of our ornaments.

Who did it?

Tonight we hosted a Murder Mystery Dinner at the house.  Everyone was given a character and had to dress the part.  The owner of the Underwood Wine Estates was murdered and we have to find out who did it?

Our Paw-fect Addition

Tonight Brian picked up our puppy.  His name is a Funf  and he is an English Bulldog.  He was born in Poland on September 18th.  “Funf” mean 5 in German.  We named him this because he is the 5th Roussel in our family.

Kaiserslautern on Ice

From November to January the town puts up a temporary ice skating rink and hosts “Kaiserslautern on Ice”.  This was Delia’s first time skating.  They especially enjoyed the little penguins they offered to help them skate.
