I was little worried about the new dynamic with little roo in hand... but they are so sweet and thoughtful... everything has been a very smooth sail so far.
Here are some snapshots around the house!

my father-in-law already claimed a little corner in our backyard. so glad to see our big (but empty) yard is getting some use as a part of the big Burning Man trip preparation!

They brought us the "real" hot chocolate. I can easily drink a cup of sweet hot chocolate for summer breakfast.

Of course... a loaf of German bread made it through the security check.

my mother-in-law really wanted to help us clean the windows so she brought her own trusted tools to work with! Made in German "non-plastic" squeegee and an industrial strength solution.

some of the new items for baum-kuchen shop have arrived here too!

antique spice jars. they are tiny and oh so pretty!

my mother-in-law is making dolls for our little roo... especially love the face hand dyed with tea and vintage fabric. they are pretty, aren't they?
