I can spend hours just setting it up and taking it down. Wow, I'm too excited even to look at the camera. Daddy getting ready for my big party at Schloss Elmau So many people are coming that we're holding the party in the Wintergarten.

Lots of snow but the weather really warmed up. Don't tell Mommy that I'm outside without a jacket, hat, and scarf! The parents will sit at this table

We'll leave from the castle door and go to Ferchensee and back. I get to sit up front with Shannon The littlest kids brought their Mommy or Daddy. But now that I'm five, I can go by myself.

After the sleigh ride, we rode on our little sleds down the hill... ...while the parents watch. But Opa had to work hard, pulling my sled up the hill every time. Is this cake all for me?

I tried playing the piano but it didn't work. Now the time I've been waiting for: opening presents. I thought this one was a rocket - but it's a pair of skis!

Another box of legos! All the kids watch while I very carefully unwrap the presents. I want to save the wrapping paper so that I can play "happy birthday" with Eileen.
