A Ruppel Sighting

Once again we have had a “Ruppel Sighting.” It’s almost attracts as much attention as a Big Foot Sighting, but less hairy, more adorable, and they stay long enough to be documented...as you will see. Just kidding. In May our long lost friend Eric Ruppel dropped by. Now his parents Fred & Carol (excellent, super, perfect friends... and that’s not flattery) came for a visit to Nitra last week. It seems inevitable that we will run into a member of the Ruppel clan somewhere on the globe. We just wait 9-12 months and they simply pop up on our doorstep...it’s amazing! Anyways, they came bearing gifts of maple syrup, peanut butter, and other Americano (ergo, they are excellent, super, perfect friends!) Aside from all this, our boys like them. Yes, I know the guys like most people, but they looooove being silly with almost anyone from the Ruppel clan. It’s contagious!
