A Night in Germany

This past Saturday evening, our family enjoyed a visit to Doris and Jerry’s home. Doris has “adopted” Jaimee, and she sees her each week at water therapy. She and Jerry treated us to a magnificent feast of authentic German food. It was delicious! Thank you for all your hard work, Doris! Es war sehr gut!

A birthday tradition in our family is to have a special birthday breakfast out with Dad. He took Jaimee to la Madeleine for her morning treat.

Birthday Pie
Mom and Jaimee’s special creation – a wonderful cherry pie! Perfect with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
