It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown

Happy Halloween!

Grammy sent us our first Halloween costume. Trick-or-treating isn't common in Germany, but dressing up is always fun.

Road Trip !

We had beautiful weather in Munich today, so we drove to the Starnberger Sea (about 20 mins from home). Anna slept through most of the trip. It was a nice change from the busy weekends that I have had since August.

I had a chance to post a couple new videos on our website. One of Anna and one of Sarah (Anna's cousin).

Little Pink Ewok from Endor

Anna's cute pink jacket makes her look like an Ewok.

Still loves her Cardinal

Well the Cardinals got beat, and the Sox swept the Astros, but Anna is still intrigued by Fredbird.

Class of 2024

Daddy came home from visiting Denver (and seeing our new red-headed cousin, Megan). Anna is representing herself and Megan, sporting their highschool graduation t-shirt.

Megan, big sister Sarah, and the rest of the Husson family are healthy and doing well. Photos are available via http://www.michaelhusson.com/

Videos coming soon to www.courchene.net

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to ...
Mama's Godson (Tobi) on 7 October, Oma (Christa) and Tante Ingrid on 8 October, Grandpa (Bruce) on 10 October,
UhrOma (Ida) on 12 October, GG on 15 October, and my new cousin (Aunt Kat's #2) who should arrive any day now !!!

Hey Fredbird !

Since MLB is not shown on the television here in Munich, this is how Anna cheers for the St. Louis Cardinals in October.


Daddy does not miss baseball, which he thinks is BORING! Only the Cardinals in October are interesting. Now the UEFA Champions League, on the other hand...

Beauty and the Gimp

Marcus and Vanessa stopped by today for coffee. This was Vanessa's first chance to meet Anna, who shares her birthday (7 Aug). They had been at the Oktoberfest for the past couple days and needed a break. Marcus injured his foot at the fest, although he is not exactly sure how that happened.
