Snow

Yesterday we woke up to a bit of white on the ground. Strange stuff that I haven't seen in ages. Most of it melted by the afternoon, but we still had some fun showing it to the girls. They were pretty impressed, although Amélie only spent a couple minutes outside.

We finally have the feeling that we are 'over the hump'. The big things that were bothering us in the house got done during this vacation. What a relief. New lamps, functional cabinets upstairs, furniture brought down to the guest room, and a few car loads of things sorted out and disposed of appropriately. Even took apart (and put back together) the dryer to get rid of the annoying beeper. Finally time to relax. Oh, wait, school starts again tomorrow...

We had to cancel our trip to Rotterdam on account of the snow and ice.

Chocolate milk as a reward!
