This was our jellobean Deutchland flag! We in years past have made an American type version of the jellobean flag around the 4th but this year with the European Soccer Championship we have been following we decided to give this one a try. We mixed strawberry and lime and added a little food coloring to make a true black! and then of course raspberry and lemon for the other colors. The kids had just as much fun eating them as they did making them.We also had a nice fresh salad with lettuce from our next door neighbor, we affectionately call "Wilson" (from home improvement) and radishes from our own! Brats and spatzle of course! We had a wonderful time celebrating a reunion with the "B's", our friends from IL who have moved to Ramstein and the Dagenhart's as we looked forward to watching the European Soccer championship game between Germany and Spain!
Mary painted flags on every one's cheeks who wanted it and we all sported Deutchland shirts!!
But alas all the team spirit could not a victory for Germany bring... Spain was just too strong! Congrats Spain... and hang in there Germany!! Maybe next time!

Sounds like you all had a great day! Jimmy and the boys watched the game here. When do you leave for the cruise? Carolyn/Mom
Go ORANGE - you know your dad and soccor. He watched every game Netherlands played. I watched the championship with him. He is almost as crazy about the game as his Dad.
Love Mom
We really were routing for the Netherlands until they were out! We never thought Germany would make it to the finals. We really believed it would be Netherlands and Spain and the ORANGE would win!! I was so sad when they lost. They were really good!
How did you make this "flag"?
It's so awesome
