We have loved our time here in Switzerland so much we've decided to extend our stay. We'll be US bound next summer instead of this one. All of you who said you couldn't make a visit in just one year have no excuse now!! Hopp Schweiz!!1) For those of you who remember a previous post about our rock, it has since been dubbed "Pride Rock" and is driven by, visited or talked about almost everyday in our family. 2) Our wonderful friends and neighbors, the Hemmerts. Unfortunately they will not be staying another year...it will be a sad goodbye. 3) Brooke is a champion runner 4) Looking out over the Pride Lands 5) Smelling flowers 6) It doesn't happen very often, but Matthew does get sad every once in a while, usually when we forget to feed him or leave him by himself for too long (easily done when he is so content all the time) 7) Mommy and Matthew 8) Swiss Family Shontz 9) Simba pouncing out of the tall grass

Another year! How exciting, you lucky family! I hope the upcoming year is as wonderful as the past year has been.
Hey---Dan's coming to your area in a few weeks for a conference. He's coming out early and wants to ski and mountain bike and stuff like that. Would you have any suggestions for the best place(s) he should go for that kind of stuff?

I think it is just wonderful that you are staying another year to enjoy being in Europe while your kids are young! Have a great time! Wish we were heading your way, but we don't have any plans to at the present time. Great pictures of your family!
As always, I LOVE the video. How cute to see him tryingt to figure out why he can't GRAB that long thin thing in front of him. Can't wait to see you all in person. I'll be there for Matthew's birthday!
That little miss brookie! she is too cute with those sunglasses. you all look great and like switzerland will treat you well for another year! wish we could find a way to come!!
I love these pictures! And I epecially like the one of Matthew on the grass ready to cry. His little pout is so cute yet so sad. I'm really going to miss you guys. But I'm sure you'll have an awesome time this next year.
Well, how fun! Does that invitation include people you "sort of" know? Ha ha...! Glad you get to extend your stay and enjoy such BEAUTIFUL scenery for a while longer.
What a great idea to do a photo op like that with the Hemmerts. We are so glad you will be here another year!

I dont blame you for staying another year...it looks like you are having a wonderful time!
we are so excited for you guys. what an opportunity. i wish we could say we were planning a departure your way but we are planning an arrival instead. baby matsuda #3 is due 10/24!
I don't know you at all. I stumbled upon your blog by clicking on another photographer's blog. But as I started looking threw your pictures and reading your stores I noticed some familiar places. I currently live in Evanston and have for the last six & 1/2 years. Anyway, your life seems quite interesting and you have a beautiful family.
