Last
evening, one of Matt’s good college buddies, Tim Foley, arrived at our
doorstep; we were all very excited to see a familiar face!! Tim was the first of three college buddies to
arrive for “Oktoberfest 2012;” Matt and Tim picked up Nick and Dan this morning
at the Frankfurt Airport. Matt called me
approximately 15-minutes ago to say that they made it to Munich and were in
search of purchasing their Lederhosens.
I am very envious of my husband right now…reliving his college days at
the world’s largest fair on an absolute perfect autumn evening. But though I am envious, I am also very happy
for him; he is truly creating a once in a lifetime memory during his 4-day
weekend Oktoberfest celebration. Enjoy Munich tonight & tomorrow and Stuttgart on Sunday & Monday boys!! I cannot wait to see some pictures!!

The
girls had not met “Uncle Tim” before:).
He surprised them by bringing along some American brownies. The girls enjoyed making the brownies with
Tim after dinner out at one of our favorite nearby German restaurants. Of course the girls loved Tim; he is quite
the character, it is hard not to love him.

I am
envisioning Matt, Tim, Nick and Dan to look like in a few hours. Matt took our camera, so I hope to have some
true pictures to share by Wednesday!!

My
company this "Oktoberfest 2012" weekend…I could not be any happier!

It is
hard to fathom that each year, more than 6 million people from around the world
come to Munich to partake in this 16-day Oktoberfest celebration! Though it is
not going to work for the girls and I to attend Oktoberfest this year, we were
able to experience the celebration last year- just minus the liters and liters
of beer, lederhosens and dirndls (picture above and below).
