stuehrenbergs at home: Schokolade zum Fruehstueck

Schokolade zum Fruehstueck is the German name for Bridget Jones' Diary. It actually mean "chocolate for breakfast" and is why the kids love Easter.

Happy Easter to everyone! Easter here is a four-day weekend (yahoo!). Of course, Thursday afternoon our internet decided to quit on us. And since everything is shut down, we had to wait until today to get it back up and running. Our TV runs via internet too. Of course we forgot until Saturday that the cable company still has not shut us off, so we (shhh!) used it for a couple of days.

We took the kids to their first movie ever- Horton Hears a Who. We actually went to a theatre half an hour away because they had the best show times available. While we were waiting to go into the theater, Jay and Nils "played" a driver video game. We anticipated Nils getting fidgety and Jay asking to leave during the movie and figured we wouldn't see the whole thing. In reality, Nils sat still the whole time. Sometimes he was on my lap, sometimes in his seat. Jay asked only once to leave, but we didn't. In general, the kids

didn't ask a million questions (like usual) during the film and were pretty well behaved.

On Easter Sunday, we woke up early to watch the F1 race (go Kimi!). The kids came down and hunted for eggs and chocolate and had a lot of fun. We also did some spring cleaning over the weekend. The kids seemed to like it a lot when we turned the sofa

over to vacuum under it.
