A Week in France

We spent a week this spring on Ile de Re, an island on the west coast of France. We stayed with E's oldest childhood friend, her husband and kids. It was a week of beach, bbq, excellent rich french food, late nights with good conversation and laughs, fishnets and shells, sand castles and running kids.

A Year in the Netherlands

We are in full swing preparing for our next move. As we look at each list and box to be packed or stored, we remember the great year we have just experienced together in the Netherlands. Here are a few highlights caught on film.

Biking in the northern province Drenthe.

Exploring the hunnebedden in Drenthe, which are older than the pyramids!

Visiting the circus in The Hague with Aunt J and uncle J.

Waiting for Sinterklaas to arrive in the harbour of Scheveningen.

Opening Sinterklaas presents with oma.

Christmas dinner with opa.

January storms on the beach. The ocean came right up to the dunes.
S and best friend T are loving it!

One day of snow in The Hague--the kids played outside all day!
