Congrats to Otta!

I've got so much else to post about, but I would be remiss if I didn't call attention to my mom's blog. She has a brief entry about my Otta receiving the Bundesverdienstkreutz (pronounced "boon-des-fer-deenst-kroits"). Pretty cool. :-)

Funny note about the reception - you could tell Otta was in a good mood because he kept making everyone have a schnapps with him when they arrived. The ceremony got started over a half an hour late because people were stuck in traffic, but could've started a good 10 minutes sooner than it did because Otta just had to have a schnapps with the last people to arrive!

Holy cow, what an honor!!! Congratulations to your Otta. Yeah, the schnapps procedures sound very familiar to me... :)

That sounds like a lot of schnapps....

And thank you for the pronunciation in parenthases. :)
