Visitors

We don't get visitors very often anymore....That's what happens when you stay in one place too long....

....but this week we are glad to have my brother Arjen and his wife Truus staying with us for a week.

Sue was VERY happy when she saw the beautiful fresh tulips  that they had brought from Holland.

Of course they are very happy to spend some time with their boy Laurens.

Arjen's in-laws are here too but they are staying at the Kristal Hotel.

On Saturday we will all go to Bali.

Noah's Soccer Team

This season Noah is playing for the JIS U12 team.

The boys came second in the league ....just missing out on the league title by 1 point. THey actually did really well because they are all first year U12 players. Most team had players who were all a year older than our boys.

Noah was the youngest on the team but did really well.

Ayla performs Horton

A couple of weeks ago Ayla performed in the elementary drama production...HORTON HEARS A WHO.
So nice to see her on stage !!
