Happy Birthday!

It was Naomi's birthday yesterday. We had a really nice time in The Hague. A couple of our friends lived there so we visited them and went to the beach. The girls loved it. They were really looking forward to it and they did so well! A verrrrry long day for them with no nap at all. They walked for 45 minutes or so to get to the beach, played and had a blast for hours, then walked even longer to get back to the car. We had to pick them up a few times, but they did most of it on their own!

Ron and Edith came to visit on Friday. We had a nice time with them. They got to take the girls to the Donkey Farm. Always fun. I have been working on the doors for the maple cabinets upstairs. They sure take a long time! Trying to get lots of rest in too. I had a full week of 'supernaps' (2 hours or so) until I finally started waking up after 20 minutes, which is more normal.

Hopefully this coming week is a bit more restful. We really need to recharge the batteries...

Amélie has more fun destroying sand castles than building them.

Raw herring with onions. Yuck.
