My Little Man's Poster Collection

Each Summer I do my Little Man a poster for his bedroom. Above are 2007- his Black Belt Portrait on the beach the day he was awarded it- the day we got on the plane to move from Florida. The next one, 2008, is the RipStik craze in our hood. ((And before you dis my photos, MY CAMERA IS IN THE SHOP FOR 4 WEEKS! I do not even know how to take a photo with a view-finder.))
Here is the 2009 version..... I call it the Riverwoods Terrorists- Paintball is the current craze- and they go through thousands of balls a week....!

All 20X30....All so cool if I do say so myself!
Anyone want to order one?
I need more money for paintballs.


Hmmm......what will next year's be!

Cafe Berlin- Huntsville Alabama






The Birthday Girl- Jessica, turns 17 this week and this was her choice for her lunch treat!

Cade is my cheese lover- he spit the muenster out PROMPTLY and impolitely in the fancy place! (I had to admit we all laughed....)


964 Airport Rd SW # 3
Huntsville, AL 35802
(256) 880-9920

Well, we did eat REAL food, but we were all so carried away sharing the goods, that I only got pictures of the cheese and fruit appetizer and the desserts---which were, of course the best part.
We all ordered something different, wiener schnitzel, Chicken Schnitzel Cordon Bleu, Schnitzel Cordon Blue (veal) and the house steak.
Along with that were 4 potato choices, boiled, Au Grautin, German Potato Salad, and fried. They were all amazing. I think I will just order a potatoe sampler next time.....me and my starches, LOVE EM.
But the kicker was the homemade dessert counter, which we cleaned out.
For authentic german food, fancy atmosphere and a wonderful change of pace- TRY German cuisine.
My son, who id very picky, sampled and loved it all!
Kinda pricey- $60.00 for lunc for 4!!
And that was the lunch menu. Of course the desserts were 7 bucks each!
Reservations required for dinner where there is usually a chance they will be full.

I love Helena....Buck Creek Festival









The waterfall is what drew me to Helena. I love the Old Town area- one of my favorite spots on earth. The Buck Creek Festival was a great community event. A beautiful way to spend a breathtaking spring day. The duck race was so much fun for the children.
A surprise Sweet Home Alabama from Bo Bice was the perfect ending to the night!

Me taking a picture of Hewy taking a picture. Thanks for keeping us in the loop, my dear blogger friend!
