Hi Boo! I just got back last night and was looking forward to reading any new blogs. Your pictures are a real treat to see. It looks like you are having some good times. The picture with the tree in the middle of a circular stone tower reminds me of the tree in the middle of Isengard in the Lord of the Rings.
I had a wonderful time in Winnipeg, like Katrina said - lots of eating and visiting. Now it will be nice to chill out before I'm back to work full time on Jan 8th.
About your heritage on the Nordheimer side. It's much like your Dad's, only we were the Baptists in Russia (far better..:) The Nordheimer's were originally from the Bavaria area and I think there is a Nordheim river. When Dad came back to Germany during the Russian revolution they settled in Greenberg, Schlesigin, which I think is now in Poland. I don't have any info at hand (without digging through my memorabilia chest of Moms) on where the Weiss's originated.But both my grandparents on Moms side were born in Russia too.
Hope your plans work out for New Years eve. I think I'll be spending a quiet one at home this year. Sure hope you aren't having any more of those scarey nights. Miss you and love you lots! Mom
