Latest news update - the house and around it...!

Hi there,

school has started and is giving me a lot of pleasure, fun and extra stress... ;-) naah, it´s not too bad, really, the kids are great and the older ones are very performance oriented, so things are going well...
The same on the house front, literally... we have progressed on the last parts of our exteriors also, as today Simon H., Thomas P. and I will put the finishing touches on the last two outside walls... There´s a pic of what our house looks like now:
 Before the paintwork Simon L. alias Joe and I had to put on some insulation and some smoothing cement, which proved harder than I thought...
  well, whatever, the last few days were really great house wise, and soon the rest will follow... grass and the pavement in the car port!
 And, as you can see, the kids enjoyed the last few days in the sun a lot, too! It´s gonna be so great to have proper grounds of the size we do next year... Rita´s just out to get more plants into the embankments....
So, you can see things are going well in the Fischer hosuehold and around it... talk again soon,

How up-to-date is UPDATE?

Hi everybody,

there have been so many things happening in the past few months, it is unbelievable, and I never quite find the time to get anything across the ether to you guys... sorry about that, hopefully some of you also get some idea of what the Fischers are like now from facebook...
Well, things are going really well... the kids are fantastic and a laugh, seemingly healthy: Paul has a lot of fun on his new swings, which have been fixed on our porch only recently:

 So, finally, we can have friends coming by on a "proper" basis, I mean, they like climbing the mud hills where our garden is meant to be at one point... in this case the Campbell boys
 But, we also recently had the chance to go on a boat trip with Rita´s dad, below you can see sister Karin with Magdalena before the trip...
 Maxi and Rita in the cabin below deck...
 and me and Pauli, too...
 Thanks dad, again, for helping so much with the porch, would not have been possible without your help...
 What is also pretty groovy about Kleinzell is the fact, that the zoo of Altenfelden is only around five minutes away... so the kids can go there on a regular basis... here in front the eagles´ volaire with great cousin Elias.
Overall, life is good in Kleinzell... hope you guys are doing fine too!

Autumn, winter and spring - we have moved into the house and already spent 4 months here - it is beyond fantastic how great pur kids are developing, we moved away fro Linz at the eprfect moment for Paul, and Magdalena is the busiest girl ever, follows Pauli around wherever she can, giving her mom and dad a really hard time to keep up with her! Here are some impressions:
 Fixing the outside of the hosue proved to be time consuming but fun work... 
 On the day of moving, Rita invited her friends for a cleaning spree... sister Linda
 Paul did not mind the mess so much, it seemed...
 friend Martina from work in Gunskirchen...
 Finally arrived... 
 baking with granny Gabi...
 6 in the morning... mountain view from the dining area
 friends feeling comfy... 
 kids feeling comfy...
 Maxi´s not drinking beer, I can assure you...! 
 Uncle Joe and Aue working away at the baseboard...
 ... and Florian mounting the door frames! Eventually!
 Uncle Gust, the organiser of the doors... thanks a lot!
 Stairway to heaven, it´s really beautiful, I think! :-)
The first impressions of the kitchen, beginning of December!
