The Best of the Best - 2010

 Our love for travel has only blossomed since we moved to Switzerland.  
We are now in the center of Europe, capable of hopping on cheap flights, taking incredibly scenic trains and with all of that at our fingertips, it seems, well, a shame not to get out there.  
So this past year, 2010, marked a year of epic travel for our family.  
We braved the cold and snow in the Alps, we ventured to new places, treaded through big cities and small towns, all the while, growing  fonder of travel and exploring.  
By the end of the year,  we collected beautiful memories, shared wonderful experiences and felt somehow richer for each new opportunity (we still feel incredibly blessed to have this experience).  
So, periodically on our blog, we will feature the Best of the Best 2010, which will profile what we considered the greatest of our travel journeys.  

 Paris - A Beautiful Surprise!




We had put this trip on hold one too many times, and as the winter days seemed to progress longer than anticipated, we knew it was time.  
Time to hop on that high - speed train, and make our way to Paris.
We had heard oh so many things about Paris and to be quite honest, many of the reviews were less than favorable, but what we found was a fabulous city, rich in history, exquisite architecture and incredible art.
We walked the streets each day with Noah strapped to our backs and kept thinking, "Wow, is a great city." 
So, our 2010 pick for the Best Surprise was Paris, despite what we heard, it was a wonderful little treasure!

Holidays


Holidays
This year we spent our holidays decorating the tree, frolicking in the snow, sledding, Alpine playing, Christmas market exploring, white wheel riding, train riding, bundling up to stay warm, all the while enjoying time together as a family.  
Oh, we love this time of year.  
Slow, steady and so very sweet.
We wish you and yours a beautiful start to a wonderful New Year.

Happy 2nd Birthday Noah!

 Our sweet Noah is now 2!  
A year filled with learning to talk, walk, laugh all the while making a deeper impression on our hearts.
We love you Noah, we feel blessed each day with your presence and we thank you for making our lives all the richer.
Here is to a beautiful 2nd year!
