I touched down at approximately 2:45pm yesterday and was surprised to see Meredith at the airport to pick me up. She extended her Christmas vacation til Monday so that we could see each other. This would make her a contender for being the sweet one (uh oh Jen). However, she expressed an interest in going to WF to see mother. So, I called her at 6AM this morning(she is staying at Danny's) and told her I think mother would love it if we surprized her at church. She very sleepily agreed. I called her again as I pulled out of my drive. It is about a 25 minute trip to Danny's. She, again, very sleepily said ok. When I arrived and rang the doorbell. A pajama clad Meredith answered it. This is costing her points in the sweet one category. She is showering now, which is why I am able to make this entry. I hope we make it for the gospel.
Here are a few highlights from my trip:
1. Moritz completely enjoying the Lasagna that Jen and I made to a point that Martina had to hide the pan after his 4th helping.
2. Sledding with Jen, Step and Vladimir.
3. Lucerne and seeing it with Jen, Step and Dominick.
4. Seeing my name on the door at the Riha's, making Dominick's room mine during my stay in Switzerland.
5. Hiking through the hills behind the Riha's in Speicher for 5 hours the day before I left Switzerland.
6. Seeing Martina and Urs's concert.
7. Aline and Rafael
8. The wonderful home cooked food provided by Helena and Martina.
There is so much more, but it seems as Meredith is almost ready to go. Here is a link to some pictures I posted on my webshots. It will allow some of you to put faces with the names.
Posted by Rita at December 28, 2003 07:52 AMGreat pictures - loved the rainbow over the mountain and the advent house. What was the deal with the mirrors? It was also nice to see you got pictures of everyone at Christmas time.

Posted by: The Sweet One at December 29, 2003 11:13 AMReally enjoyed your pictures! What kind of camera did you use? Also, enjoyed our phone conversation of last night.
Posted by: Leah at December 30, 2003 06:43 AMJennifer, your comment from December 29, 2003 11:13am reminds me of the movie "The Highlander"
Posted by: me at January 3, 2004 08:48 PMIn the movie, all the contenders to being "the one" killed each other until there remained only one.
Posted by: me again at January 3, 2004 08:50 PMI think killing the other contenders for the title of "The Sweet One" would pretty much negate the title, don't you?
